One of my best friends ("B") offered to be our surrogate, and we're now expecting a baby in April 2013 after two cycles of natural IUI at the Jones Institute. For medical reasons, we are not biologically related to our unborn child. Yes, I guess that makes this a "planned adoption."
Waiting for our Miracle Baby, Carly Marie, Due April 24, 2013!

Welcome here as well! How is B feeling?
Hi and welcome! I'm expecting my 3rd baby in January, but my 2nd child was born in April, and that is a really lovely time for a baby to arrive. Someday you could have a mother's ring with a diamond in it!
Are you planning to find out the sex, or let it be a surprise? I hope you, your DH, and your surrogate have a wonderful 7 months ahead of you!

I agree this is an extraordinary story you, DH and B are all sharing. It already shows a closeness and trust with your friend and I hope that just continues, giving your baby such a wonderfully loving environment to grow up in.
Welcome to the board, and I hope that your find this a great place to visit during this big step into the next adventure in your lives!
