Mr. Beatie's Pregnancy

Mr. Beatie is a brave man to do what he is doing for his wife. But here's an insight into something Mr. Beatie may not know. I was an infertile woman over 30 years ago. The psychologist testing as well as the physical testing went on at each infertility clinic visit. If I had been able to become pregnant without medical intervention, no doctor would have questioned my decision. Because I had to think about my decisions and answer, I believe I have be able to appreciate having a child more than somebody who goes "oops!". I hope that Mr Beatie and his wife will have that same appreciation for their daughter and I wish them the best of luck.
