If you think that aborting babies, in general, is not immoral, then I, personally, don't see this as a problem.

Let's try a different thought experiment:

If you were doing IVF because you wanted one child. And you had two embryos. So you knew you would discard one. And you found out one of the embryos was going to be born blind. Which would you discard?

Most people (I think) would discard the to-be-blind one. You could argue that that is ableist. But another way to think of it is: you had a choice to decide if your child can see. You chose to give them sight.

Yet another way to think of it is: you had a choice to decide whether your blind child should live. You chose that they should die.

Your desire to only want one child in this circumstance is not free of ethical implications.

Of course. My first sentence was a disclaimer saying it only makes sense if you don’t think abortion is immoral. (I don’t think it is immoral.)
