Alright this one just gets me!

Boy, to be pregnant that much. She must also have enjoyed being pregnant too. I don't think I could give up a baby that I carried for 9 months.

Wow I certainly couldn't do that. Especially being the biological mother of the first 9. Those children are your blood! I could never live with the thought of having 9 of my own flesh and blood children running around out there, never knowing their biological mother. As for giving away her husband's offspring too - well, people do give up their children for adoption. (I didn't read the article - does it say WHY she gave up theirs? Do they not have the means to support a child?). If her reason was a logical one, then I could see it. But if it's for the money - well...ew! How awful! I could see surrogating maybe 1 POSSIBLY 2 children for couples who were having problems. But I don't think I'd donate my own genes to do it. And having that many surrogate children goes far beyond wanting to help the "needy" couples...it's worse than a puppy mill. You're making babies into objects rather than the precious new lives that they are.

Wow!! There is no way I could give it up either. I have never seen how women could be Surrogates anyways? To me, it would be hard to give up something you carried for 9 months unless you were young, and needed to give it a better life and home. How would you feel knowing it was your BABY you gave up? Wouldn't it bother you? Just my thoughts.

oh wow! she has really made baby making into a profession huh? yeah, for someone like me who is having difficulty in conceiving, i think the idea is inconceivable. but maybe some people just need to do it. i don't want to make judgments, i don't really know what is going on in her head. i don't know her predicament. but i think she is a pretty strong woman after siring 12 kids. take care and good day to you! :)

wow, i don't know if i could be a surrogate. as a mother, i love my children so very much. and i loved being pregnant. i don't know if i could carry a baby for another couple and just give it up. I was going to do that for my brother and his wife years ago, but that never happened. i thimk that if you can do it, and want to do it to help those who can't have children then do your thing. i just know for me, it's not something i would want to do

I couldn't do that either. It'd be one thing if I was carrying someone else's biological baby, I could do it then, but there is no way I'd be able to hand over a child that was mine. And especially if the child was mine and my partner's together. I'm sure she's made all those couples very happy and if she's fine with it then ok that's her perogative, I just don't understand it.

I think she is a wonderfull woman. She is giving the gift of being a mother to so many people out there. ITs wonderfull! I hope to do it some day. I don't think i would have been able to give up me and my husbands child... but there are always situations. Like, if she didnt find out it was her and her husbands until right before or after birth, i wouldnt be able to take the child away from the other family.. knowing that they cant have children!

I could not do this. No way, no how. However there are women out there who can never have children and would rather have someone carry baby for them than adopt and as long as she is helping people like that and it does not bother her it's her and not me. That may be what she was put on earth to do?
