I have always been adamant that I do not want children, but it is not the prospect of having a child that bothers me… it’s that I do not want to be pregnant or give birth.
I am a mostly healthy woman able to carry a child but I do not want to.
Often I’ve thought of adoption or fostering as things I would be interested in (when I was single I planned to adopt down the road) but I am in a relationship and the topic of “do you want kids” has come up.
I can’t really say no, because I do. But I do not want to carry a child personally.
Is surrogacy something that is available to anyone if they choose that route?
This isn’t me asking for advice about which option to choose as that’s a LONG ways off and will require a lot of considerations. Just generally curious if surrogacy is a viable option to add to the table in future planning conversations or not.
(In Canada btw that may change things)
