Hey,

I haven't lurked so I will be doing that now, just wanted to intro so it would be easier to find this board again. I have offered to surrogate for some friends and wanted to get more info and experiences to understand what I'm in for. This board was suggested to me. So I'll be lovin posts and lurking for a bit, please don't mind me creeping around.

Update: so after reading around I realize I am actually offering to be a GC for this couple. Whic I suppose is selfish of me since they will have to find a DE but as MH is kinda uncomfortable with the situation it was his one request.

    Welcome! Don't feel selfish, many REs now require that the woman carrying (you, the gestational surrogate) have no genetic relation to the baby.

    It does make things in an already complicate situation less complex.

    It's great that you are agreeing to do this!
