Becoming a surrogate mother!

[@GroundhogBaby]

I think that is a wonderful gift for someone. I could never handle doing it because I had awful pregnancies, lots of swelling, high blood pressure, horrible heartburn. Very uncomfortable, not to mention my babies got increasingly larger at birth. My last son was almost 10 pounds and no I had no diabetes issues, just huge babies. I always felt like I wanted to help a same sex male couple. They are the ones at the biggest disadvantage for growing a family, and all the stories I've seen they are always so grateful for what's being done for them. I hope it works out for you.

You guyohave no idea how happy I get when we hear from you. You both look so happy and relaxed. I wish in the early to mid 80’s surrogacy was more of an issue and excepted. I would have got my 1 little one. From my heart to yours it’s a wonderful gift to a couple with little to no options. What an amazing beautiful gift. My great nieces and nephews have filled my heart with joy. Not to mention my nephew’s have let me completely spoil them rotten. Post pregnancy depression can always rear it’s self. I wish you success if you are able to do this. Would love to see your children have another sibling. Your birth videos are the most happy tearful, exciting, emotional I have ever seen. Much love to you all.

I was a few days away from being matched with a couple. Then got shockingly pregnant with my 4th baby (natural, when my other three were IVF). I went through IARC, and there are tons of things to go through, background checks, medical history, psych eval, lawyers (for all those questions that must be answered in case of surrogate mom and baby)… I was so excited and it was going to be an awesome fit but God had other plans. Not sure I’ll dive back in after this baby but IARC was awesome to work with!

[@FamilytaleVlogs]

That’s awesome to hear and congrats on the baby!!

I don’t think I have what it takes mentally to be a surrogate. To grow a baby for 9 months and to have to constantly remind yourself not to form a bond with the baby and then immediately hand it off as soon as it’s born. Then your breasts are engorged with no baby to nurse :(. Sorry to be a bummer but that’s where my kind goes 😣

[@FamilytaleVlogs]

I definitely appreciate hearing both sides of the “argument”! 😊😊

[@nadyakotik6927]

It's because there is a bond and it does affect the baby to be separated from birth mother. Attorneys actually say there are studies to prove this when they argue in court about separating babies from caregivers. Unfortunately, people don't think of the effect on child.

Hi guys!! Love the pic of Louie and Lucy at the end❤ I think its cool that you want to be a surrogate! There are so many women that can't carry to term. Love ya!!❤

[@keenacummings2017]

It sounds like a helpful thing to do but please research it. The parent who pay for the surrogacy have legal right to unborn and can ask to terminate preganncy if there is a risk to the child. There was a mom who needed chemotherapy and wanted to do c section prematurely but wasn't allowed so had to terminate. work with families to prevent removal or reuunited with children. I have worked in child protective services for years. I have been reading about this topic recently as i didn't know too much and realized that its not fair to the baby. Whenever we go to court, out attorneys tell the judge that the mom who carries the baby has a bond with it. Whenever they are separated for any reason, most likely due to mother being unable to care for the child, the bomroken bond creates trauma for the child even though it isn't conscious, i guess there are studies to prove it. Adoption is the best way to go!

I absolutely would become a surrogate if I hadn't aged out by the time I had baby #2.

❤❤❤

[@louisebourne5779]

Hi guys, I think it is a wonderful thing to do for a couple who can’t carry or have a baby of their own that would be fantastic. I personally couldn’t do it because I loved having children and being pregnant I would get very attached to the baby even though baby wouldn’t genetically mine but if you can emotionally do it go for it!!! Sending love to you both xxx ❤

[@CharlotteJanvier30]

I'd love to be a surrogate. I have 5 children now at age 29 (youngest turned 1 on the 3rd) and I'm so sad that I won't be having anymore of my own. I'd definitely love to do surrogacy, however my husband doesn't like the idea 😔 I miss being pregnant and I feel like I'm still quite young to never experience it again xx

[@mufasa9454]

I am a single man who doesn’t want to be in a relationship but would love to have kids through surrogacy. I want like 3 kids and I want them to be related the same way and I was wondering if I could have my second kid with the same egg doner?

[@mufasa9454]

@@FamilytaleVlogs cool! Do you know exactly how I would do that? What are the Steps?

[@FamilytaleVlogs]

@mufasa9454 start researching surrogacy agencies and go from there 😊

[@MonicaEllis-zr4lv]

My neighbor did it 6 times. She loved it.

[@FamilytaleVlogs]

oh wow!!! That's a lot of babies haha!

[@barbarboyland2877]

Congratulations to you all

[@FamilytaleVlogs]

Thank you!! ♥️

[@courtneygriffin368]

You two are seriously so sweet ❤ I really hope you are able to follow through with surrogacy. It is one of the most beautiful gifts 😊

[@CB-jv6cj]

I think it's such an amazing thing to do for someone. I could never, but I will be an egg donor soon. I could never carry a baby and have to give him/her up, even though it's not my baby haha.

[@FamilytaleVlogs]

Thank you!!

[@alexisbuckles4651]

Our first is also needy 😅 our kids are both so close in age so every time you guys have a new kid frustration I feel it so hard here 😂

[@FamilytaleVlogs]

Hahahahah glad we aren’t alone

[@kittyfarkas]

Is this real? No updates from you tube

[@FamilytaleVlogs]

Agh! We’ve heard that from a few people for some reason our notifications are not showing up 😞

[@southernbelle2478]

Oh wow you went from struggling to have kids to now helping others have kids thats crazy

[@Suebearish]

If you have another baby would consider hiring a postpartum doula

[@FamilytaleVlogs]

We are always open to trying new things!
