Surrogacy
Posted On 06/14/2009 02:13:55 by britalena

I'm new!  I've been searching to find another LDS woman who has chosen surrogacy to build a family.  I have! I have a baby girl on the way!  Nevertheless, I feel so alone, and have been surprised by the SHOCK of my friends (who are great LDS women).  I think the Lord wants us to build righteous families, and bring down spirits into righteous homes.  Is there anyone out there who has been an IP (Intended Parent) like me?

Surrogacy is wonderful!!  I was a two time surrogate and wouldn't have changed it for the world.  THis was before I was a member of the church and when I talked to the Missionaries they asked the mission president and they were told it was okay.  HOWEVER, there was some discussion about it in RS one time when they talked about people getting paid to be a surrogate and how wrong it was.  I was really mad because I have never seen a free adoption.  I actually walked out before I could say something.  Surrogacy gives you the opportunity to have a biological child and there is nothing wrong with that.  I would hate for you to ever feel alone in this amazing journey.  I was never an IP but I was on the giving side and I tell you what you are doing is AMAZING!  I HOPE YOU NEVER FEEL DIFFERENTLY~  If you ever want to chat please send me a note.



p.s. interesting fact you could point out....wasn't Mary a surrogate?  Think of all the other surrogates in the Bible.  Those are facts that can't be denied.  The Lord used them so why not you??
