Aussie Influencer Defends US Trip for IVF Baby Sex Selection

An Australian influencer, Caitlin Bailey, recently sparked a heated debate after publicly sharing her journey to the United States for sex selection of her IVF baby. This practice is illegal in Australia, leading to strong reactions from bioethicists like Paula Gerber from Monash University, who stated, "It's really wrong ethically, morally, and legally." However, Caitlin and her mother, Teghan Polglaise, defended their decision, with Teghan stating, "I just desperately wanted that girl after three boys." The video also features Dr. Daniel Potter, an infertility expert, who explains his work with Australian patients seeking treatment abroad. While gender selection remains a contentious issue in Australia, the video highlights the complex personal choices involved in family planning and the diverse perspectives surrounding reproductive technologies.
