I guess I should elaborate, not for profit, but if someone was in need I would like to say I would help. When I was younger, before all of my health issues, I used to think I would like to be a surrogate. I think it is an absolutely incredible thing to be able to do for someone.

This. It is easy to SAY yes...but if that were true, more people would do it. It is a great idea and I love the reasons behind it, but it seems like a huge PITA to go thru unless I'm doing it for someone I am close to.
No, especially to someone that I'm close to because it would be strange to know that that child is half me.
BFP with no treatment!
No. I think it's a wonderful thing to do, but there's no way I could be mentally ok with knowing my child is out there somewhere. And there's no way I could think of that child as anything but half of me.
I would consider being a surrogate for someone close to me, but DH is absolutely against it... apparently I am not nice to live with while pg.
This. I would only be willing to go through the process for someone I loved.
No. It's a HUGE process. I ahve a friend who's son has CF and who's other son is a carrier - both parents are carriers. She had her tubes tied but she LOVES kids. We've talked about it and she told me that she wouldn't want one from a friend bc it would be half her friend's baby. She would rather adopt an embryo. She currently has three friends who are pregnant and one who is actively trying. She gets baby blues all the time. She loves the infant and child stage - she wants TONS of kids but due to her genetics she can't have more - she loves the pregnant/infant/baby/child stages and wants to do it all. Adopting a baby is also on her radar but she is more open to adopting an embryo.
It's a long hard process and I don't thik I would do it for a random person. It's hard on your body.
I would for a friend or family member
I would so surrogacy as well for a family member once Ihave my second baby
No I wouldn't.
I used to think I'd be a surrogate, but my body is not good at being pregnant. I may consider it for my sisters or a super close friend, but I couldn't go through it for someone I didn't know.
