Grats! An ounce of crack and a bottle of Tequila is coming your way!
Woohoo!
Do you get an achievement for that?
No, just XP...I dinged 30 today!
Congratulations! Enjoy every minute of being a new mom, no matter how many kids you have that first few weeks are always so peacful and miraculous.
And now I am tearing up and will say adieu...sniff...
Um...thanks. *warning hormones incoming*
I've enjoyed every minute of all the sleep I've gotten since having my good friend and her husband's baby. I've enjoyed being able to hang out with my four children and knowing that although I enjoy being pregnant, I'm thrilled not to have the diapers, the sleepless nights, the worrying, etc. I'm enjoying the fact that my kids are finally old enough to stay home alone for a short time so hubby and I can go out to eat, or for a walk or just have some alone time.
I find it miraculous that through modern science they were able to take a woman's egg, combine it with sperm, wait three days as the cells began to multiply and form a human being, and then use a catheter and put that little mass of cells into my uterus. I think it's miraculous that of the three embryos we put in there, one turned into a beautiful little boy.
I am so at peace with my decision to help my friends become parents. I am at peace with the fact that for just over 40 long weeks I carried a child, did everything I could to give him the absolute best, put my own self aside (even when I dislocated my shoulder and broke my arm and didn't take anything other then Tylenol) and in the end handed that child over to his biological parents without hesitation. In fact, when the baby was born, the first person to hold him was his mom. The second person to hold him was his dad. I was the third or fourth person to hold the baby.
And lastly, I find it miraculous that my husband, Andist, told me weeks ago that if I decide to help another family, he's on board. He vowed to support me again 110%, from very first shot in the stomach and hip, to the last push and beyond.
I am a proud surrogate. Yes, I'm a proud mother of four. They're older. I don't have a new baby...but I did have an amazing experience and am damn proud of myself. That's what I wanted to share.
Woohoo!

Ooooh someone is getting fucked up tonight. 30th birthday and no baby in the belly. That's justification for some alchohol poisoning.

I guess I missed all the details of the whole thing, I barely ever get the time to really go through the site and even guild chat can elude me when I am concentrating on something. I have often offered to surrogate for friends who could not conceive and think that it is the most wonderful gift anyone can give.
I am very sorry that I didn't pay enough attention to realise this long before now, but wow! Good for you! I really admire what you have done for your friends.
