I’ve heard of people who have had babies for others and have always been intrigued by it. But then I think about adoption. Putting your own flesh and blood up for adoption. Over the years I have read blogs, forums, life stories, etc, etc… just to try to understand because it really disturbs me. But somehow being a surrogate never seemed as disturbing. I feel like I might be able to do that for someone one day.
If I thought my body could handle it, and I found myself in a situation where someone couldn’t have a baby of their own like maybe my sister or a close friend, I might do it. I don’t know what it is. I’m not a religious person, so I don’t like using words like “blessing” or “gift” but that’s really what it would be. The ultimate gift and I would feel like I had made a difference on earth.
I don’t know why I’m thinking about this stuff now. Probably because I’ve been dealing with thoughts of having another kid. The situation is iffy at best and it may never happen for me. If I couldn’t have another of my own, maybe I could have someone else’s, minus the cost of raising it.. That’s always a plus. LOL!
