Anonymous commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amIVF costs around 10K not 20K. I know, because I’ve priced it in the last year. If they’ve got the money, who are we to say how they spend it?
I think one being the bio mother, one being the birth mother is actually nice.
I’m sure if challenged, a DNA test would prove that the non-birth mother was just as biologically related as the one that gave birth if they needed to prove it for any parental rights.
Anonymous commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amBy the way Larissa, they are not protecting each others parental rights. By law the person who gives birth is the biological mother, not the egg donor. They are just being attention hogs with money to burn.
Anonymous commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amHow stupid. They could have used IA, cheap and safe, but went to the expense and risk to carry each other’s embryos by using IVF (20K for each try). Reads like a cheap romance novel. Yuck! What a couple of doofwads.
Anonymous commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amHow very exciting!! Congrats to them!
Anonymous commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amI think it’s such a good idea to carry each other’s embryos too. There’s just something sweet about it.
Anonymous commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amBy carrying each other’s eggs, they are protecting each other’s parental rights. One is the biological mother, the other is the mother on the birth certificate. I can see not wanting to have both women recovering from childbirth at the same time but presumably they have the means to get some extra help around the house. Hooray for them!

Anonymous commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amIt DOES sound lovely!
Two parents who love each other and want to share love with 2 new additions to their family? Wonderful!
Anonymous commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amYes, Allison, I would. I don’t think it is just coincidence that so many celebs are having multiples. It is in style right now.
TolaniLucia commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amI think this sounds lovely.
Anonymous commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amWhy would they need a publicity stunt, these seem to be two normal women who most likely both wanted to experience being pregnant.
Perhaps it’s just the best time for both of them to add on to the family, would you say it was a publicity stunt if a celeb was having twins?
Anonymous commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amI am with Anon on this one.
Anonymous commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amI couldn’t imagine being a chef and surviving the first trimester. All the smells would do me in!
Anonymous commented on Jan 01 70 at 12:00 amI call it a publicity stunt.
