The steps taken still rely upon IVF technology.
Cloning seems to hold promise for that.
This reliance upon micro-manipulation of human gametes is too similar to the frustration and emotional roller coaster of IVF, GIFT, ZIFT, and the others. If each individual within the couple were to successfully clone themselves, I think most would agree that would satisfy maternal and paternal instincts. The bottom line is, the less you have to rely upon viability of gametes, how they look, quality, quantity, motility, etc.
