A lesbian couple from North Texas is believed to have made “medical history” after they carried the same baby inside their bodies, calling it a “priceless experience”.
According to the Daily Mail, Ashleigh and Bliss Coulter underwent the revolutionary fertility treatment called the “Effortless Reciprocal IVF” so that they both could be involved in giving birth to the baby. The couple has now become happy parents to a healthy baby boy — Stetson.
Bliss, 36, was the one to give her eggs which were then fertilized with a donor sperm in the lab. The fertilized embryo was then placed inside Bliss, who acted as an incubator for the first five days with the help of a device that looked like a champagne cork.
Bliss, however, decided after five days of keeping the embryo inside her that she didn’t want to be pregnant. Therefore, the embryo was removed from Bliss’s uterus and placed in her partner Ashleigh’s body.
