Grandma Gives Birth To Her Grandchild
If my daughter had been trying for years to have a baby and couldn’t, would I be a surrogate and have one for her?
Tough Question.
If my daughter asked for a pair of new shoes or a microwave I could arrange that fairly easily. However, f I remember correctly a baby takes nine months to get here and makes you extremely uncomfortable. The experience can make you nauseous and so tired you want to sleep for 23 hours of the day. The one remaining hour that is yours is spent in the bathroom. Skin that is already stretched would be re-stretched, or maybe what is loose now would just be re-inflated?
That’s something to think about, and yet if Kristine Casey can do it at the age of 61 I suppose I am capable since I am only 54.
You didn’t read that last sentence wrong. At the age of 61 Kristine Casey gave birth to her grandson .
Her daughter, Sara, couldn’t carry the baby and so Kristine did. Finnean Lee Connell arrived healthy and remains the answer to their prayers.
Now let me ask you….if your daughter couldn’t carry a child would you be willing to carry it for her (assuming you are healthy and under the age of 65)? What a testament of Kristine’s love for her daughter and son-in-law!
Congratulations to the family on their new baby. Blessings to Kristine and her family for going above and beyond what most of us nanas will do for our grandchildren!
Thank you Lord for this nanas love and the new baby who blesses them with even more love!
I am honestly not sure what I would do….I am only 56 but it would be impossible anyway as I have had a complete hysterectomy. But IF it were possible and it was the ONLY way I MIGHT consider it. My only daughter has a VERY unique set of female issues and has suffered many things with it as a result since she was only 13 years old. She is almost 9 weeks pregnant right now with her first child (she is 24) and I am sooo happy for her. She wanted it soo badly. I began praying for them when I knew she was trying to conceive (it took a few months) and have not let up one little bit and will pray diligently until that baby makes his/her entrance into this world. I think they will make wonderful parents. Pregnancy (I’ve had 4) is a DIFFICULT and emotional process and I am just not sure it is something I could do for someone else, but the joy of motherhood is something I can’t bear anyone to miss who really desires it. Interesting topic. Have a good day…Debbie
That’s a real tough one. The surrogacy would be one thing, but the attachment to the baby and you connect would be a whole other entanglement.
It’s sure not like a pair of shoes, or even a kidney or bone marrow.
