Why Followup F*************** is here
Because it is the surrogate's egg that is used for the pregnancy, the surrogate is also the biological mother of the child. With the gestational surrogacy process, the embryo is created by using sperm from the biological father and an egg from the biological mother through the process of in vitro fertilization.
Personal letter
Dear Potential Adoptive Parents: I am so touched that you have made the decision to adopt. I truly believe that adopting children and giving them a forever home is an honorable and humble thing to do. It takes special people to treat someone else’s child as their own. Granted, this child will be yours in every sense, except biologically, but there are many people that would NEVER think of doing this. I am a 28 year old African-American female. I grew up in sunny San Diego, CA. I had a tumultuous childhood, but I was determined to rise above the adversities and have the life I have always dreamed of. It’s really simple: I want a rewarding career, a loving family, and financial freedom. I began working on my dreams by going to college. Nothing in life is free. I am no stranger to hard work. I obtained my AA while raising my son with the help of family. I made a huge mistake by taking a break. In my early 20’s, I moved with my soon to be husband to his hometown on the Eastern side of the US. I was happy. There were two children in the home and I was a stay at home mom. Our family dynamics changed. We added two more children and I began working full-time. My husband and I were both unhappy in the marriage and we eventually split up. My bipolar depression coupled with alcohol addiction left me feeling like my life was uncontrollable. I sought help and re-enrolled in school. During that time, I was still making mistakes. I found myself pregnant. I originally wanted an abortion but couldn’t afford it. I have struggled with thoughts of parenting and adoption. I have never believed that giving up a child was for me. I love all of my children to death and would die before I let them get hurt…..BUT, as I think about my situation, I know that keeping my baby is the selfish choice. Although I have everything I need for him to start his life, I still think that he deserves better. I am not as stable as I should be emotionally or financially. I am struggling. I don’t spend as much time with my children as I would like. A baby deserves to be loved and spoiled. I can’t do that for him. My baby’s adoptive parents will be emotionally and financially stable. If it is a couple, they will have stability in their marriage or committed relationship. Relationships are difficult, but both parties should know how to communicate. If his adoptive parent is single, this individual will be emotionally and financially stable. S/he will have stable relationships with family or friends that may as well be family. I would be interested in knowing why you are choosing to adopt single. The adoptive parents will be well rounded, educated, and personable. I am most interested in an open adoption. I want you to love my baby as much as I do. This is the most difficult decision I will ever make. I can’t wait to hear from you.
