Why do IVF babies feel different?
In vitro fertilization (IVF) babies are babies obtained by cultivating fertilized eggs in the laboratory through assisted reproductive technology and transplanting well developed embryos into the mother's womb. Although there is no difference in physiological structure between IVF and naturally conceived infants, IVF may have different feelings due to the special process and environment involved.
Discomfort of medical operation
The formation of IVF requires a series of medical operations, including egg collection, sperm extraction, in vitro fertilization, embryo culture and other processes. In these processes, IVF will experience certain discomfort, for example, ovarian stimulation will lead to an increase in hormone levels in the body, causing emotional fluctuations and physical discomfort; Intravaginal operation is required for egg collection and embryo transfer, which may cause some discomfort. Therefore, in the process of formation, IVF will have different feelings from naturally conceived babies.
In addition, IVF babies may need to undergo multiple operations, which increases the duration and intensity of discomfort. These discomfort may have some impact on the emotion and psychology of IVF.
Difference of breeding environment
In the process of IVF of IVF, the development environment of embryo is different from that of naturally conceived baby. In the laboratory, embryos are affected by artificially controlled temperature, light, gas concentration and other conditions, rather than the natural environment in the womb. This different environment may affect the physiological and psychological status of IVF.
In addition, IVF may need to go through the process of artificial selection at the early stage of embryonic development, in which only well-developed embryos will be selected for transplantation. This process of artificial selection may have a certain impact on the IVF itself and its subsequent development, which is different from that of naturally conceived infants.
Pressure of family atmosphere and expectations
The birth of IVF is often an experience full of expectations and challenges for families. In order to pursue the fertility goal, the couple may have experienced a long wait, treatment process and emotional fluctuations, which will bring some pressure to the whole family. At the same time, the parents of IVF may have special expectations for their children, which will also have a certain impact on their growth and development.
This kind of family atmosphere and pressure factors different from natural pregnancy will have a certain impact on the feelings of IVF, including its importance in the family, emotional ties with parents and so on.
Similarities and differences with naturally conceived infants
In general, there may be some differences in feelings between IVF and naturally conceived infants. It is mainly reflected in the discomfort of medical operation, the difference of breeding environment, the pressure of family atmosphere and expectations, etc. These differences do not mean that the feelings of IVF babies will be better or worse than those of naturally conceived babies, but that IVF babies may have different feelings in some aspects due to their special processes and environments. Therefore, during the growth of IVF babies, we need to give them more attention and support to ensure their healthy physical and mental development.
Test tube baby is the achievement of modern medicine and technology, which brings new hope to couples who cannot conceive naturally. With the development of technology and social progress, we believe that the experience and feelings of IVF will also receive more attention and research, and further promote the healthy growth and development of IVF.
