She was just telling me about her problems with multiple IVF's and telling me that she's ready to look for surrogate, and I just offered. I know it not in any way an obligation yet, but I think I want to do it. How did you know that you can do it? I feel good about it - is it going to change? Do I know what I am getting into?

Hi Tatyana,
It was very nice of you to offer to be a surrogate mother for your friend! As to whether you know what you are getting yourself into, well, I really don't know. How much research have you done into surrogacy?
How did I know it was right for me? I just knew. I knew that I could do it, I knew I wouldn't become emotionally attached to the baby (and I wasn't) and I knew it would all work out.
Each woman that is considering becoming a surrogate mother needs to listen to her own heart when deciding this.
As to your feelings changing, only time will tell. Sometimes feelings change (either for the worse or the better) and sometimes they don't. Each situation is different.
Best wishes!
