  1. I would love to be able to bring a baby into this world for a couple who would not be able to do so on their own. I know how it feels to want a baby so badly, and it not happen.

    But of course its something that would have to be talked over between the couple having the baby.

    But honestly, i doubt i ever really could, i would become so attached to the wonderful thing growing inside of me, it owuld be devistating to give it up.

    But i have a lot of respect for all of those out there who are doing such a wonderful thing.


  2. to spend nine months with something kicking me; unable to sleep; internal organs shifting; hips widening; pain, can't even walk?  NO! NO! and NO again.

    and thank god i'm a MAN.

    horrray!!!!



  3. yes ive always said that if i'm lucky enough to be able to have 2 or 3 kids then i'll be a surrogate for someone else as a thankyou as i know how it feels to feel so hopeless

    i am going through infertilly myself at the moment as i have pcos and taking clomid just found out i ovulated today! x

  4. I am - to my grandson (not biologically though!)

  5. yeh, i would be - but i doubt my hubby would let me..  

  6. To a member of the family who |I was close to, I would be happy to help, but not for monetary gain with strangers...sorry!

  7. no. i had a good experience with my first pregnancy...although had morning sickness..heart burn...and the rest.  but it went smoothly. had quite a difficult labour. and the extra weight i had to shift after that.  i wouldn't have gone through all that...if i didn't hold my son at the end of all this. it was the only thing that kept me going.  i couldn't do it and then part from the baby... he'd be the only reason for me going through that, and it wouldn't make any sense to me.

  8. i would if i could, and i understand  it's a hard decision for anyone to make.

      due to an assault whilst i was pregnant, i can't have children, having tried ivf etc, my only option is surrogacy.

    so i think surrogacy is a fantastic ast of kindness

  9. stretch marks for no reason? i dont think so!

  10. Yes, I would for my older sister. She has been trying for a few years now with no luck. If I didn't have children of my own though, it would be a lot harder to say yes.  

  11. I'm sorry but i don't know how anyone can go through pregnancy, feel the baby wiggling around, go through all the pain and changes that happen in your body just to give the baby away at the end. I wouldn't even do it for a family member it would just be too hard for me but hey everyone has different opinions!  

  12. Isn't it really the same as giving your own kid up for adoption. If you have a blood transfusion that blood is now yours and here this kid is growing through the blood of the woman who's carrying it. So I'd say it's basically the same as giving your own kid up for adoption, now if you'd do that then I guess you wouldn't mind being a surrogate mother.

  13. if it were her egg and his sperm done through way of ivf then i would consider it, but i would definitly do it for my sister.

  14. absolutely! i have been intrigued by the idea of surrogacy for a while. tho i am only pregnant with my first child, i feel that in a few yers once i am done having children i will definitely want to be a surrogate. i love being pregnant and i love the idea of helping out someone who can't have children.

  15. I think its probably one of the most unselfish things you can do for a childless couple [of course, provided it's done on the right terms]. If it's for monetial reasons only, this is where matters start getting a little too 'un-real' for me.

    The whole act of pregnancy and giving birth is such an amazing journey. I don't think I could go through that attatchment to hand over a baby to someone else, no matter how heroic a deed it may be.

  16. for me no i couldnt do it, im way to selfish, after holding the baby in my stomach and feeling it move i couldnt give it away .

    BUT on saying that i am not by any means having ago at woman that do manage this fantastic gift to another woman or couple, any1 that can be a surragate needs a HUGE reward for it and i have a huge amount of respect for them, what they do is amazing and the most presious thing you could do for another human being.

    its just a case of like i said im too selfish for it.

  17. Once my own family is complete I would like to give someone the chance if they were unable to get pregnant themselves, but I don't know if I could hand over a baby that I had carried hopefully none of my family or friends would be in the situation that they would need me to do it!

  18. yes i would its a wonderful thing to do there are so many people out there who deserve children and apart from the 1st few yucky weeks i love being pregnant!

  19. Absolutely not.  Carrying a child and then giving birth creates a bond, regardless of whether or not it's yours biologically or not.
