Interesting article on how using clowns increased IVF success rates in a study.

    So what happens when you're afraid of clowns? lol And I would have loved to be in on that meeting when the lead doc says "You know what I think would help ladies get knocked up? A clown!" I guess if it works though it's worth a shot.

    It's cool if it works especially since women going through IVF will drink and eat weird things (think pineapple core, wheatgrass, pomegranate juice etc.) to help the odds, why not a clown?  However, all I could think is it is another "relax and it will happen" kind of philosophy.  Ugh.
