Ooh wow! So what's it involve?

aweee! I think it's so cool for you to give that kind of gift to another woman. How Special!

Yeah?

I have been thinking about this too. How long have you wanted to be a surrogate? I know you should give it a lot of thought first, but how long?

I told my parents and sister 2 weeks ago I would like to be a surrogate - for a gay couple. Probably wasnt a good idea to tell them until im 100 % certain, because they are quite religious and uhm well my dad walked out the room

it will be the other couples egg and sperm and i will just carry the child for them. i am getting sent a list of potential couples and i don't have a clue how i am going to pick between them

i have wanted to do it for years. i was going to do it about a year ago after i had my daughter but i decided to wait a bit longer to make sure it was something i REALLY wanted to do

are you sure that youare emotionally up to it hun???

I thought about doing that before I had Chu but they only accept women who've successfully given birth before. Now that I have gone through pregnancy and birth I don't think that I could be a surrogate because I don't think that I'd be able to handle giving the baby to someone else even though the child isn't biologically mine. Kudos to you for being able to do it. The world needs more people like you.

most definately. i probably wasn't a year ago but i am now

Yeah. Might be easier with another couples egg not your own. If I do it for a gay couple obviously they wont have any so instead of having to use a donor egg, I would want them to use mine. I cant do it yet even if I fully decided to because im on medication for depression and anxiety. I think you have to stop those meds during any pregnancies? Let us know how everything goes

im glad that you are doing much better than you were a while back you have been thru the ringer and back. im happy for you and wish you the best of lick. have you talked about it with your kids yet?

they're too young. layla is 2 and logan is 1

Please don't jump all over me for saying this ~ but I hope there will be counseling included in the surrogate contract. I know giving a child away, even if it isn't your child, is going to be incredibly difficult no matter what anyone says. Sure, it might seem like something noble to do, but noble and feelings when it comes time to hand over an infant you carried and gave birth to, are two completely different things.

Your stronger than i am. I don't know if i could do that. I would be way to attached to the baby Good luck though, and that is really cool you are doing that for someone. I hope it goes well for you

yep there will be counselling

Excellent.

You and your mom will be pregnant together...

hah yeah i know wierd huh

I know i wouldn't be able to do it, but good for you

Good for you! I would love to be able to give the gift of a baby to someone!
