A custody battle is brewing between a Kirkwood couple and a couple from California. A judge will decide who gets to keep two frozen embryos. Jennifer McLaughlin gave birth to twin girls in January. The kids were the product of frozen embryos she and her husband adopted from a San Francisco couple. They used two of the embryos for this pregnancy and saved two more for future use.

This sure got a lot of press. What doesn't get much press is the fact that even with an agreement a woman has no rights to use her own fertilized eggs if her partner or former partner vetos it. Infertile women beware - do not think those frozen embryos are yours to use.
