A clinic near me, RMA, does something like this. I guess each clinic has their own name for it, they call it SelectCCS. Their rates are significantly higher (64% success rate to a live birth and they only put in one- that is HUGE). It\'s just too expensive for us. The report said that this should become the \"norm\" in the year- let\'s all hope.

They said this was the first baby born using it, though I don\'t think that is accurate, because I\'m pretty sure it is the exact thing RMA does: http://www.rmanj.com/ivf-redefined/comprehensive-chromosome-screening/
