Having a healthy baby is the aspiration of many families, but for some people suffering from infertility, natural fertility is difficult to achieve. With the development of medical treatment, a series of assisted reproductive technologies such as IVF have made such families see the hope of solving fertility problems.
Many infertile families have concerns: IVF babies are not as good as natural births. So before doing ivy is also "hesitant", afraid of giving birth to a "different" child, Thai DHC to talk about the gap between IVF and ordinary babies in the end where?
The first IVF baby on the mainland
On March 10, 1988, at the Reproductive Medicine Center of the Third Hospital of Beijing Medical College, after a year of unremitting efforts by Professor Zhang Lizhu, the first IVF baby in mainland China was born, named Zheng Mengzhu. When Zheng Mengzhu was a child, her physical and intellectual development was very good, her nature was lively and active, and she rarely got sick. Looks a lot like her mother. Zheng Mengzhu also cared about her "IVF identity", but as she grew older, she also understood that she was only not in the mother's body during conception, and grew in the mother's womb during pregnancy.
In 2009, Zheng Mengzhu, who was in her 20s, was admitted to Xi'an Xijing College and became a college student. After graduating from university, Zheng Mengzhu returned to work in the Third Hospital of Beijing Medical College and became a staff member of the Reproductive Medicine Center of the hospital, engaged in case management.
On April 15, 2019, a baby boy was born in the Beijing Third Hospital, the hospital where she was born, becoming the first "second-generation baby of IVF" in the mainland, which is of epoch-making significance for the impact of human reproduction technology on the mainland. Now 33 years old, she is not only very healthy but also has a happy family.
What is the difference between an IVF baby and a regular baby?
healthy
Many people think that naturally conceived babies are healthier, but don't forget, IVF is also the sperm and eggs of mom and dad, after careful cultivation and then put into the womb and natural conception is the same, can develop normally, so there is no problem with physical condition.
intellect
There is actually no difference between IVF and ordinary babies in terms of intelligence, and in general, IVF children are slightly better in TERMS and emotional intelligence.
This is mainly because IVF chooses high-quality sperm and eggs, and when the two are successfully combined, they are implanted into the mother's body, so it is relatively better.
Future fertility
At present, there is IVF, and the success naturally conceives their own children, so whether the children born through IVF birth by parents also need to pass ivy tubes to have children is not absolute, because there is no difference between the children born of IVF and the children born of normal pregnancy, and it is also possible to give birth naturally in the future.
DHC Thailand warm reminder: IVF is a big positive for families who cannot have children, and it is also a shortcut to having children, I hope that everyone can look at it with a normal heart.
