It sort of rubs me up the wrong way that they say making a baby costs 16k and that they're grateful they can have their own family, as if reciprocal IVF is the only way for two women to have a family.
There are plenty of lesbian couples that have children and took turns to carry but didn't use IVF. They've chosen to do IVF so they could have the experience of carrying each others egg (Which I agree sounds nice and emotionally must feel fulfilling, I'm definitely not saying it's wrong by any means) when they could have chosen to do IUI with done sperm which is massively less expensive than IVF. I understand doing it if one or both of them have fertility issues that means they need to use IVF, but there's a lot of lesbian couples who have children together and didn't choose to/didn't have that kind of money to spend. It's obviously almost always more expensive than a hetrosexual couple without fertility issues making a baby, but it was optional to do it they way they've decided to do it.
