"I have been blesses with one baby and one on the way. with out fertility assistance. Does this make me a better parent? I don't think so."
"she is soooo wrong!!! I am hurt and offended!!!"
"Gee, saying infertility treatment should be optional and some people should just do without is like saying a heartbeat isn't necessary, so just do without surgery to fix that!"
"HOW RUDE"
"This woman needs to go through what us infertile couples go through, she wouldn't be so quick to blab her big mouth off! This infuriates me, why are we less entitle to have children? By insurances not covering it that is what she is proposing!"

"I am outraged at Good Morning America's lack of sensitivity for infertile couples! I am one of MILLIONS of American women faced with infertility issues & am insulted by the made by your guest. While insurance companies fail to cover infertility medic"
"Perhaps GMA, in the interests of accuracy, ought to get a true specialist in infertility and human reproduction, such as Dr. Jerome Check, to comment on this topic."
