An Infertile Catholic Mom Pleads For An End To IVF...

PRECISE MOMENT
"The spirit of life is breathed into the creation of the Eternal Father at the precise moment of infiltration of conception. At the exact moment of the infiltration of conception, life begins. Therefore, you destroy a creation of the Eternal Father; and as such, you will condemn yourselves to eternal damnation! You will not destroy a creation of your God!" - Our Lady of the Roses, May 10, 1972

AT MOMENT OF CONCEPTION
"Every man, woman, and child of the age of reason knows right from wrong, for he has been given an inborn conscience. At the moment of his conception life is within the womb, and at the moment of conception a life is forming, regardless of what the agents of hell now pollute the minds of mankind with, creating murders of the young! I say unto you, life begins at the moment of conception and all who extinguish this light are murderers, and without repentance shall be condemned to hell!” - Jesus, June 18, 1977

By Grace Porto

A Catholic mother of four adopted children wrote about her infertility journey and why couples need to resist the “siren call” of in vitro fertilization (IVF).

The 2026 March for Life’s theme, “Life is a Gift,” frames unplanned pregnancies not as a threat, but as an unexpected gift, Leigh Snead wrote in a Jan. 21 article for the Catholic Exchange. But the fact that life is a gift also has a flip side, she explained: Couples hoping and planning to conceive a child do not always receive that gift. 

Snead wrote that most couples struggling with infertility will face the temptation to resort to IVF, but the practice most often ends in further destruction of human life.

“Whether it’s wanting to have a child through a pregnancy just like everyone else or not wanting to deny would-be grandparents the biological grandchild they so desire, the temptation can be strong,” she wrote. “All the more reason we need to understand and share with others why our Church opposes the practice. All the more reason, too, we need to push for regulation of this largely unregulated industry. These must also be our pro-life goals.”

Infertility can be isolating, she wrote. On the one hand, an infertile couple may hesitate to make friends because they fear judgment. On the other hand, well-meaning parents may hesitate to befriend a childless couple for fear that their own children will be a painful reminder of what the other couple has been hoping, praying, and waiting for.

That isolation can increase the temptation to use IVF, Snead wrote: “You’re tired and depressed. Your womb aches with emptiness, and there is still no babe to rest upon your bosom. You are so, so lonely because you have decided to isolate yourself until this nightmare is over, and you never have to talk about it again.”

She added that a couple might resolve to use IVF but to avoid destroying embryos, and never undergo “selective reduction,” the abortion of one or more infants in the case of twins or triplets.

But few fertility clinics will agree to work with couples on those terms, she pointed out. In fact, when she went to a fertility center and refused to use IVF, asking instead to explore other options, her doctor disregarded and disrespected her religious beliefs. 

“The clinic pushed us, bullied us really, to enroll in their IVF program at every doctor visit,” Snead recalled. “They mocked us for some of the Church-approved methods we used during diagnostic testing. In the end, when it was clear our doctor was growing impatient with the zero-success rate of the low intervention treatments he’d been humoring us with thus far, he tried one, last tactic to convince us on IVF.”

That tactic, she wrote, was screaming at her.

She recalled the doctor yelling at her: “I’m creating life back there, not destroying it!”

If a doctor does not have basic respect for the Catholic beliefs of the patients he or she is working with, it would be wise for the patients to seek support elsewhere, according to Snead. 

“I am sure there are kinder doctors with gentler bedside manners, but if they are in the business — the big money business — of IVF, then they are probably not a fit for the faithful Catholic couple seeking answers (and solutions) to their infertility,” Snead wrote.

The practice of IVF, she continued, leads to the destruction of human lives, or results in freezing babies indefinitely in storage.

Snead added that many Catholics do not know that the Church prohibits the use of IVF and that there are alternatives for fertility treatment, such as NaPro Technology. 

“When we love someone, we tell them the truth because our job is to help them get into heaven,” Snead wrote. “It’s time for all of us to take to heart the theme of this year’s March for Life, ‘Life is a Gift,’ and be not afraid to talk about not only the evil of abortion, but also the truth about IVF. We owe it to those we love to share with them what is true and beautiful about marriage, sex, and children.”

“Children are not something we are owed. Nor do we get to choose how and when they come into the world,” she concluded. “This month, let us remember the unborn lives taken by abortion, and let us also not forget the little souls lost because they were judged defective, or imperfect, or just extra.”

"The judgment of your God is not akin to the judgment of man. The Eternal Father will only judge by the heart. Your rank, your accumulation of worldly goods does not set you up before another. Many have sold their souls within the holy House of God. Better that you strip yourself and remove all worldly interests now while you have the time to make amends to your God, for many mitres will fall into hell." - St. Thomas Aquinas, August 21, 1972
