While we wait... Let's Freak Out

Well we have a week left to find out if our surrogate will be successful and pregnant. It is the first bench mark of many and we are really nervous about everything.

So what does one do when your waiting for the news?... Well if your like us, you have a good old fashion argument. It's a real time killer and can make your emotions go all over the place. It just makes the weekend fly by.

We're all fine now, and the argument was stupid and pointless however it came from fears that are lurking in our brains. We figured out that we are:
  1. Scared that we will be disappointed ...AGAIN
  2. Scared that we will be successful and off to our next bench mark
  3. Scared that we could become parents
  4. Scared of all the responsibility that babies entail
  5. Scared that it is different than having children the old fashioned way?
  6. William was worried that we would be too old. (I did not agree, due to my gran had my mum when she was 45)

How's that for a mind think!
I think you can get so wrapped up on the process and if you are a little like me; your emotions are slow to follow. I have to say if it wasn’t for this blog, to help express how I feel, I would probably be bonkers by now. In fact William is getting out his notebook and is going to share as well on this blog very soon.

We decided last night that we know we are in good hands and we must let nature take its course. We also know that we are very lucky to have this choice in our lives, it is an incredible opportunity to achieve such a dream. We understand that this is not the end and we can handle the future.

I know we will be good parents; we really want this child and want to provide it the best life possible. I am also going to buy every book on Amazon about babies and make sure my mum is there on that happy day in the future, to cover all bases.

Also I think I am at the best age ever to raise a baby!

  2. I can completely agree with you on all of this. The waiting period is like hanging on the edge of your seat wondering if you'll stay on or tip over.
    As for you both questioning yourselves, believe you me..Kevin and I have been there done that. I send you both many hopeful wishes. This is a choice that us intended parents are very fortunate to take. I hope you and ours has a very happy ending!
