Surrogates?

theirbunmyoven · June 2015

I've used the search tool and haven't come up with anything. There also isn't another forum/app that I'm aware of intended for the surrogate community. Thought I'd take a shot and see here.
I'm a first-time surrogate and would like to have the opportunity to stay connected after delivery with other women experiencing what I likely will be. I have a very positive outlook and have had a wonderful experience as a gestational carrier but with the very sudden end nearing I anticipate some very new feelings that I naturally won't have experienced after the deliveries of my own children.

I'm not a surrogate, but thay is really awesome! I've considered being a surrogate because I have fairly easy pregnancies. When are you due?

What a wonderful thing you're doing! I don't personally know anyone that is currently a surrogate, but I hope you find someone to connect with!

I think what you are doing is great! My husband and I were going to go this route but it was hard to find one.

That's really cool! I imagine there will be some hard times about the end.. Your carrying this child and I'm sure that you love it like you did yours.. And then of course will have to give it to its parents.. That's very hard and very selfless of you!

What a selfless task! Good for you! You will make someone's dreams come true.

I'm due July 7th. Actually it's been a very different experience than with my own and that's a good thing. I care about this little guy and have treated the pregnancy very carefully as I would my own, but I've always thought of him as belonging to his parents.
Each milestone in the pregnancy has made me overjoyed for them. I truly cannot wait to see them with their sweet baby.
I just know that hormonally I'll be off (as we all will be) and so I'm sure I'll appreciate having a support system. I know one other woman who was a surrogate and delivered a year ago so she'll be a great contact but again hoping for an online community as well

@AziaNick congratulations on your pregnancy after considering the surrogate route!

Try typing just the word, "surrogate" into the search on the bottom of the page...I got a few hits, here is one: https://forums.thebump.com/discussion/comment/87013821#Comment_87013821

@Miz_Liz thank you for that link!
In my app I don't have that search box but I did do a search on my laptop and didn't come up with anything so not sure what I did.

I think I was searching in July...

You are welcome! Let me know if the search still isn't popping up others for you and I can link the results.
