Hysteroscopy update

Well the cost of me going to the hospital to have the hysteroscopy is way to much. So now I need to wait to to hear back from the agency on an office in CA for me to travel to. Since my work schedule is very full for the month of December I need to wait till January for the next step.

I have also been told that their are intended parents that are interested in my profile, which is very excited! Hopefully I will be matched very soon!

Wishing you all a safe and very Happy Thanksgiving!!

Nov 13th. Happy Birthday baby boy

Today marks such a beautiful day, when I gave birth to a baby that was not mine. I made two people dreams come true. After waiting 25 years, I helped give them such a beautiful gift. I was able to be a surrogate and help a family grow. How I wish you such a Happy Birthday little Itay. I am sure you have brought so much happiness to your Mom and Dad's life. I just thank you for letting me be apart of bringing you in to our world.




The day I gave birth to this little boy, showed me just how strong I could be. I know most people ask How could you give him away. Well he was not mine to give away. I gave him back. You might be asking what this means. I was only borrowing him, his parents trusted me to carrying and keep him safe till the day they could have him. Yes, I miss him and his parents and wish them nothing but happiness. I am so thankful for being apart of such a wonderful thing. Being apart of something like surrogacy has taught me so much about who I am. It has helped me to always reach for more and never give up on what I want. I went through so much  in 3 years, that some go through for so many more years. I am just so happy I was able to stay strong and push through what seemed so impossible. For those that have struggled with something like fertility, I give you a hug and tell you how sorry I am, There should never be a struggle like this. I would have never been able to understand just how hard this could truly be.

Happy Birthday not just to Itay, but to all babies born through surrogacy. And a huge Thank you to all surrogates and what we go through to help dreams come true!!

The 1st step to my next Journey

I would like to share with everyone that I am waiting to be matched with the next couple that I hope to help give them a baby. 

First I wanted to share with you all what I am in the process of doing for my 2nd surrogacy. I have to have a hysteroscopy done. This is a procedure that lets the doctor look into my uterus, I seen my Ob this last week and now I am waiting to go to the hospital and have this done. I did not have to have it done with my 1st journey. So this is very new to me. I am learning about it. I think that I should share this with anyone that would like to know more of just what surrogates do or just to help teach someone that is wanting to be a surrogate and  to help them clearly understand what might be asked of you.  I am not trying to turn anyone away from surrogacy, I wish someone would have helped me to really understand what I could be getting into, I am a very proud surrogate and am willing to help anyone to being a surrogate. I did so much research and read so many blogs and which some blogs were sad and some were happy. Not many broke down in detail what it is that is asked of us. So I thought I would explain a little about this 1st procedure that I have to do. What I was told by my Ob at my counsel was that I will need to go to the hospital and be placed under a local anesthesia. This is an outpatient procedure. I am waiting on a call from the scheduling department to set up a time for me to go in and get this done. He assure me that it is a simple thing and not to worry. He told me that is shouldn't take more than 10 min. He will place a very small camera in my vagina and through my cervix  and take some pictures. He told me that it is better to do the procedure with anesthesia for it can be painful and uncomfortable. Yes I am a little nervous, only because I have have never done this, but I am sure everything will be fine. I posted some links for you to get a better understanding. Wish me luck and I will update you after my procedure.
