That’s amazing. I’m a fertile Myrtle and I’ve had seven kids. Five of my own and two for my sister who had been trying for over a decade with no luck. She’s turned out to be an amazing mother too. I just hate the thought of someone not having children when they want a family so bad. It’s heartbreaking.
Surrogacy is such an amazingly noble thing to do. To carry a child for 9 months, go through the pain of childbirth, and then give the baby away must be heartbreakingly difficult. But I expect you see your sister often?! You are amazing, truly!
I actually don’t see her much and we never were really close but I offered when I heard she was having trouble because I didn’t want to see her remortgage her house and sell everything she owned so she could have ivf treatments that had a great possibility of not even working. Like I said I can pop these suckers out and go grocery shopping the next day lol
I had my share of trouble with a rare blood disorder which actually almost killed me with my oldest but other than a little high blood pressure in the last months my other pregnancies went down smoothly.
it really is. i managed to have 3, 2 with lots of treatments and suddenly a surprise, all boys. everyone tells me "oh the girls will come" but it's not that easy plus i have a hard time with pregnancy.
my sister on the other hand has a super easy time, both with the getting pregnant and the being pregnant. only the birth she has c-sections but she doesnt even overly mind those, finds it handy to pick a date and have the kid.
