What a sad and selfish woman.

Would you rather have a kid now when she is not married? Sometimes I wonder about this site being taken over by DU. Why on Earth do you think a single women should be called selfish because she does not want a child until she finds a husband??????? This is getting downright scary around here.

Oops----sorry. Forget the ping, guys.

I though this was a Juti Giuliani thread.

Testing the euploidy of women’s eggs recently has shown that by 35, fewer than half a woman’s eggs (on average — women are all different) are euploid or chromosomally correct enough to make a baby. In her 20s, even, about 40% of a woman’s eggs might be no good. By the time a woman reaches 40, which is “young” these days, in terms of health and all, her eggs are shot. Sure, there might be a few good ones in there but it could take tens of thousands of dollars to find or not find the needle in the haystack.

So allowing younger women to freeze their eggs simply to give them enough time to settle with the right husband and create a family at an older age is not the worst thing.

Of course, the most wonderful use of ovum vitrification is for cancer patients that will need to undergo chemotherapy. Imagine a 19-year-old patient who is told she will never be able to have children after her cancer treatment.

Men can father children until quite late in life. A woman’s eggs just don’t last very long. No one quibbles with a woman first marrying at, say, 34. Well, maybe it’s something in our environment or diet these days, but a lot of newly married 30-somethings are finding they are already infertile.

Anyway, there are some wonderful things to come out of this research, though it’s not going to help the chick in the article. You can tell by the fact that she only was able to retrieve 7 mature eggs that she has already quite diminished ovarian reserve and probably the 7 she’s got frozen are not so great. She’ll be lucky to get ONE good one out of that at age 37.

These folks have no clue how much energy it takes to raise a child, and how much less energy one has as one ages. There’s a reason folks stop having kids as they age.

What would freezing do to that ‘Energizer Bunny’? He may need to replace those batteries.

You forget——Juti’s a nurse.

She could jump-start his batteries with an electrical probe.

Sort of like a reverse lobotomy.

Nah, Juti is over a Rooty Rooster Central sitting on the nest. She is hoping that that Cockster Rooty will have provided her with the Golden egg! LOL

Not everyone enjoys being around little kids.

Ditto. I think that the change in attitude about parenthood (or the lack thereof, to be more specific) is the only good societal change that came out of the 1960s.
