Hi:
I'm in a Traditional Surrogacy arrangement and have just started taking the Dom and Yasmin to breastfeed. Our baby is due September 11th. (It should be a lucky day for us!)
I tried once before to breastfeed our daughter but we received her at 4 months old through domestic adoption and she was well attached to her bottle already.
Fingers crossed for success here!

Hi Nona:
Isn't Surrogacy wonderful? We have our second appt. with the OB tomorrow at 16-weeks. I hope she will perform an ultrasound so we might see the sex..
Fingers crossed that all is well.
Our S.M. lost 25 pounds and recently gained back 1 pound. I'm glad I missed that morning sickness.

Hi LD! We're in a TS surrogacy as well, due August 23. How cool that our little ones will be born so close together.
Good luck at your ob appointment! We had one on Friday at 18.5 week and the doctor couldn't tell the sex due to our munchkins legs being crossed. I hope you get to find out, though 16 weeks is a bit early. Good luck!

Hi Debbe,
I've been a lurker on the SMO TS site but am too shy to post there. We finally connect. I'm so glad you are going to try the breastfeeding, too.
My T.S. was transferred by the Navy to Lemoore, California which is by Visalia. South of Fresno.
She's going to pump the cholostrum and breastmilk for us. When did you meet Val?

Hi:
The OB did not do an ultrasound, just a doppler. She said it was too early to tell at 15 weeks 5 days. We had a strong heartbeat at 160.
Our T.S. is being transferred to Central California (from Monterey) but, fortunately, it's only a 3 hour drive instead of a 1 1/2 hour drive. Thankfully, they didn't send her to San Diego. She's in the Navy.
