Hi Niki - I've been following your blog for a couple of years now after a miscarriage in 2009. Had a rough road after it with lots of surgery on my uterus (though nothing compared to what you've been through). We then fell pregnant with identical twins about this time last year! Had a very difficult pregnancy then ended up delivering at 34 weeks 5 days after developing preeclampsia. Caught it in the early stages luckily. We were incredibly lucky to get so far along as my ob thought I'd be delivering closer to 27-30 weeks, which terrified me. Ended up delivering 2 healthy girls, and they only needed to stay in special care for 11 days. They are now just over 4 months old. I love looking at the pictures of your boys. There is something really special about having twins, and I'm looking forward to watching our girls grow up together. I hope you and your family are all well and happy.

I have read your blog and loved watching your story unfold. my sister had severe early-onset preeclamsia and her son, Emmett, was delivered at 23 weeks and lived 4 days in the NICU before he got an infection and died. It was recommended she not get pregnant again by many doctors. I am planning to be her surrogate and we are hoping to get pregnant in March. I would love to be able to email K with small questions as we begin this journey if she is open to that. My email is jsh4amh@sbcglobal.net. thank you so much for being so open with your grief and fears and joys. it has made me feel more normal and given me hope. it has also been the first blog i've found with family surrogates and it went so well so that is encouraging for our exciting next year. Amy

Your blog is just amazing! I faced infertility, when I was 36 yo. My only chance to have children was surrogacy. My husband and I have got married when we were 26 (now we are 40). We decided to set aside kids issue for a couple of years and to take up our careers. But a terrible thing happened. I started to feel lower abdominal pain. I’ve lost 17 pounds for very short period of time. I felt exhausted and I was getting tired very fast. One night I woke up because of sharp pain in abdomen. I was diagnosed with cancer of the uterus. So the uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries were removed. It was a big shock for our family. Accepting childless life wasn't a variant for us. My husband wanted a son very much. But I knew that I couldn't fulfill his wish. I was afraid that my dh will leave me for another woman, who will be able to bear a child for him. And I began to look for ways and exits, clinics and doctors. I wanted to do everything to save my family. After a long search, conversations with friends, reading of articles and reviews in the Internet, we decided to focus on surrogacy. But in our country it is, unfortunately, very expensive and we couldn't afford it. We began to look for clinics abroad. We wanted to find the best doctors and, at the same time, affordable price. It turned out that this procedure is legal in Ukraine. I've read many reviews about Ukrainian clinics and medicine. So we took this chance. We went to biotexcom for surrogacy procedure. Now we have a wonderful healthy boy. My husband and I are very happy and grateful. I've never regret about my choice. Now I can't imagine my life without my baby! Surrogacy changed our life for the best.
