Just what were these two women thinking? Theres nothing all that unusual about parents bringing up twins. IVF or no IVF children are not consumer products.
THE lesbian mothers of IVF twin girls have lost a legal bid to sue their doctor for the cost of raising one of the toddlers. The women, whose names have been suppressed, sued prominent Canberra obstetrician Sydney Robert Armellin for more than $400,000 for implanting two embryos instead of the requested one.
The ACT Supreme Court today ruled in favour of Dr Armellin, and ordered the couple pay his legal costs. ....
The court was told the twins' birth mother had lost her capacity to love and the couple's relationship suffered as they became mired in everyday tasks associated with raising two children.
But Dr Armellin's lawyer said loss of freedom was experienced commonly by parents across Australia.
