So yeah, seems a little crazy. But I have been reading stuff about it on the internet and was thinking about maybe becoming one, at least one time. The money is GREAT. And knowing I could help someone that can't have a child of their own, would be a good feeling. What are your thoughts?

I thinkn there is alot of emotional attachment that happens when you are pregnant, and I couldn't give up a child after carrying it for 9 months.

See that is what I have been thinking about, but I think that I'm strong enough emotionally to deal with it. I'm filling out an application today. This could be a years salary in nine months.

Hey I agree it a wonderful thing to do if you think you can handle it emotionally..And talking to your BF 1st is also a great idea I think,you'll need all the support you can get..Best of luck in what ever you decide to do..

If it is something that you really want to do then more power to you but I personally couldn't do it. I know how attached I got to my daughter when I felt her start kicking and after feeling all of that, I don't think I could have ever handed her over to someone else. But good luck on whatever decesion you make!

As long as it is the right decision for you. If you have never had kids it might be a hard thing for you. I always wanted to do it after I had my kids. I loved the feeling of being pregnant and I had all the kids I wanted and I think helping someone less fortunate is always a good thing. But this is a big decision..good luck to you..

I think this is wonderful... If I didn't want any more children of my own..at the time.. I have thought about it... But I didn't get that far...I had 2 .. of the 4..I would have loved to have... So now..of course I wouldn't want to go thru the process at my age..of course... So..I commend u for what u would like to do... That in itself is giving and shows ur character and great strength... I do have a question...What if ur boyfriend says he wants no parts of this.. How would you feel about that..and ur decision...?? happyflowerforyou...

Well money is not every thing in life.. i agree with Lily,that there is alot of emotional attachment that happens when you are pregnant, and It couldn't be easy to overcome it.Its would be just like selling urs heart,love, emotion for money..

my friend courtney is battling cervical cancer; she has hinted at me being her surrogate. I would seriously consider to do that for her and I know that she would most definately involve me in the child's life. I think that being a surrogate is a tough choice.

I have to agree with ramie, if your doing it for the money, that is the wrong reason....just my thoughts..

couldnt do i can only consider having a child with a man who i would hope would be a wonderful dad and it was a real desire for him

I have one child, and don't want another of my own. My son is enough for me to handle. I am not doing it just for the money and I know my body and how I felt being pregnant. The agency I am going to be dealing with is very professional. They do psychological screenings, background checks, medical histroy screenings...all that stuff. I am still only thinking about it, so Im not saying yes quite yet.
