A womb with a DIFFERENT View begins...

So the journey of motherhood...it has been quite a different road than I ever expected it to be.  I was always the pied piper of children from my early childhood.  I babysat as soon as I was of age.  I went to college knowing unlike most freshman that I was going to be a teacher.  I knew I wanted to get married and have kids. I was married for three years when a blessing occurred just  after 3 months of trying...I was pregnant!!!  My pregnancy with Michael was difficult.  I was throwing up for six months.  I was on bed rest for two months.  But finally on August 17th 2005 Michael was born via C-section at 8 pounds 13 ounces.  I have LOVED every moment of being Michael's mom.  So in my well planned out  mind, I knew I wanted to have my kids three years apart.  So when trying again, I didn't think much of it.....fast forward six years sitting in a fertility clinic being told after 2 1/2 years of working with them, "I think it is time you consider using a Gestational Carrier."  WHAT??? And so the journey begins....
