re: Using a surrogate for convenience.

I wouldnt and I HATE being pregnant

Just to avoid the first trimester? helllz to the yeah. I might say differently if I weren't so miserable right now though.

i totally would. i did not enjoy pregnancy.

Quoting Mermaid Hathor Elaina-Wed:" If you had the money, would you use a surrogate for convenience? Just because you didn't want to gain ... [snip!] ... to gain the weight, your job doesn't allowed pregnancy, for really whatever reason. If you say the mother is selfish, why? "

I hated being pregnant and was sick the entire time. Within about 15 minutes of the placenta being delivered I felt like myself again. Prior to that, i felt like i was being poisoned. So, assuming the usual risks associated with surrogacy were very, very low, I'd do it.

I wouldnt. Even though pregnancy was 9 months of hell for me, I still liked that at the end of all that pain I got a little mini me. I felt like I became part of some not so secret club lol

What about those who adopt because they don't want to go through pregnancy? I've known people like this. Are they selfish?

No I don't think so because they are giving a child who has no home, a home to live in.

For the record I don't believe they are selfish

No I would never do it for convienience. As much as I hated being pregnant, its an experience someone can never take away from me. Plus I dont trust other people with the health of my child. Who knows if they drink while they are pregnant. Yeah yeah yeah, I know they probably screen these people before hand, but you never know what they do in the privacy of their own home!

I think someone can do it if they want, but I wouldn't I LOVED being pregnant.  

No I want to experience my labor/ birth....pregnancy was very difficult for me...but worth it

No way. Despite the periods of hell I experienced I loved being pregnant and I loved having my son. It was so amazing to be able to do something like that on my own; creating this little human being inside of me.

I would never do that. I enjoyed being pregnant way too much! I don't judge anyone that chooses to do it though..
