The Influence of IVF on Couple's Emotion
IVF is a kind of baby born by means of artificial assisted reproduction technology, which cultivates and develops the fertilized eggs in the laboratory and transplants them into the mother's body. Although the emergence of IVF has brought hope to those couples who were disappointed due to reproductive difficulties, it may also have a certain impact on their feelings. This article will explore the potential impact of IVF on the relationship between husband and wife from the perspective of economic pressure, family relations, emotional distress and responsibilities between husband and wife.
1. Economic pressure
IVF costs are often high, including laboratory operations, medical costs and drug costs. This may cause greater financial burden for couples. First of all, couples need to bear the cost of assisted reproductive technology, and may need many attempts to successfully conceive, increasing economic uncertainty. Secondly, because IVF babies usually need to receive more medical services, expenditure in other areas may be compressed, leading to a decline in the quality of life between couples. Finally, economic pressure may lead to arguments and conflicts between husband and wife, exacerbating their pressure and tension, thus having a negative impact on their feelings.
2. Family relationship
The emergence of IVF may have a significant impact on the family relationship between husband and wife. First of all, the children obtained through artificial assisted reproduction technology are not the result of natural pregnancy and childbirth, which may have an impact on the family concept of couples. They may need more time to adapt to new roles and responsibilities and redefine their family values. Secondly, IVF may trigger discussions and comments between family members and friends, further increasing the pressure and tension of couples. Finally, the arrival of IVF may lead to changes in family dynamics, such as the need for more family time and energy to take care of children, which may reduce the time between couples and affect their intimate relationship.
3. Emotional distress
The IVF process is full of emotional distress. First, if couples need to achieve fertility through IVF, this means that they may have fertility problems or infertility problems. This fact itself may have a negative impact on their self-esteem and self-confidence, causing emotional distress. Secondly, the failure to try IVF for many times may bring great psychological pain and depression to couples, which will have an impact on their emotional health. Finally, the success of IVF may have an impact on the hopes and expectations of couples. Couples may have different levels of emotional fluctuations, which may affect their feelings to some extent.
4. Responsibilities between husband and wife
The arrival of IVF increases the responsibilities between husband and wife. First of all, the baby care needs the joint participation and commitment of two people. The couple needs to actively adjust their lifestyle and schedule to meet the needs of the newborn. This couple may need more communication and cooperation, and for some couples with inherent problems in marriage, these problems may be further amplified. Secondly, couples need to make joint decisions on childcare, such as children's education methods, living habits, etc. This needs to be done on the basis of good communication and mutual understanding between couples. Finally, couples need to jointly face external pressures and challenges, such as family expectations, family and friends' expectations and social views, which may have some impact on their feelings and marital stability.
summary
The influence of IVF on couples' feelings is complex and diverse. Economic pressure, family relationship, emotional distress and responsibilities between husband and wife are important aspects. While pursuing IVF, husband and wife also need to fully consider and cope with the possible impact, cope with difficulties together through communication, understanding and cooperation, and maintain a good psychological and emotional state to welcome the arrival of new life.
