Do you think you would be able to be a surrogate mother? Have all the joy of pregnancy, having a precious little human being grow inside you, love that person with all your heart and when they are born you give them away because you were having them for someone else? All the little things you miss, their first smile, the first steps, the first words... I wouldn't! That must be so hard! Has anyone here been a surrogate mother? I watched something about it and it got me thinking!

I mean people could adopt children instead of doing the invitro thing, I understand some people want to experience what pregnancy is like, but there are so many children out there who want to experience what having a family is like, so why not adopt?

there has got to be a lot of cases where a surrogate mother changed her mind and has decided to keep the baby. it would take a pretty strong women to give her baby up.
i would imagine the situations that turn out fine are the ones who are surrogates for other family members and knowing that she will be a part of the child's life like an aunty or something.
a women who becomes a surrogate mother would have to be very caring and loving and sympathetic to those who are in need to start a family. someone that caring, well, it's confusing to me. you would think that kind of person would love to love what they created and would 't be able to do a thing like that.
for those who have they are some kind of wonderful. i personally couldn't.

I don't think I would want to do it personally, but I do think it's a beautiful thing to do for someone else. There's nothing wrong with it and if a woman is strong enough to do it she's doing something wonderfully kind for a couple who can't have children otherwise.
Adoption is a great option, but some people really want to have their own child and I don't blame them. I can't wait to see what the little boy my husband and I created looks like! So surrogacy is a wonderful option for other couples to have that same experience.

I do enjoy being pregnant but I couldn't give up the baby or anything. When I was pregnant with my first one. My friend couldn't have ( that want the doctor said to her) I wouldn't do it. And then my mom ask about adoption when I was 8 months along. I couldn't do that either. I wouldn't be able to do it. And has to today I am happy mother of two wonderful boys that I love very much..

Good Question! My honest answer is yeah, I probably could if that person couldn't have kids and tried everything they could. Some women live their whole lives just to be able to give birth and be a mother. There are a lot of women who have kids and abuse them and the kids didn't ask to be here. So, yeah I would do it for someone that really deserved it.

since i am not a mother yet, I don't think I could do it. Maybe even after not for some stranger. But if it was for my sister or someone that I am close to, and it was their egg, then I think I would be able to help them experience joy and happiness of having their own child.

I would do it. Not sure if i would for just anyone.. I have two very close friends who cannot have kids. I am about to have my fourth and it is so hard for me to tell them about me being pregnant. I would do it for both of them in a heartbeat, and my husband agrees completely. So I guess I would still get to see all those first and be a part of the childs life...

I don't think I could be a surrogate mother,even if I still could have kids.My best friend can't seem to get pregnant and has been to many specialists,including surrogacy and adoption.I'm just glad that's a decision I don't have to make.

I like to think that I could do it. I imagine that if I had a good friend or sister or family member who couldn't carry her own child, I like to think that I could be selfless enough to do that for her. Of course, I'm sure it would be the hardest thing to ever do.

I think, if i were to get pregnant right now, i would give it to a couple who really wanted a baby but couldnt have one of their own. I would never get an abortion i dont think, and im not ready for a baby, so i think this would be my choice.

It would be hard, but if I were just carrying a baby t hat wasn't genetically mine, just an implanted embryo from someone else, I think I could do it. i wouldn't want to though, pregnancy and birth aren't exactly easy.
