		<description>HI Tommy,
I got your post and I contacted the website and started to fill out the application but it was stopped because I am overweight.....I am disapointed in that because I have given birth to 7 beautifull children and my girlfriend has two girls too...you can see our family photo on rFamily photos, it is from last year, but cute...I will send our new one soon, it is of the seven kids in P-town...I really thought it would be awesome to help someone become a parent. I had no complications with my births, my last pregnancy was with twins, I carried Full term, delivered 3 days late and they were each 8lbs....My kids are healthy, active and yes I have to say adorable.....If you know anyone else I could contact let me know. I am over wieght, but have lost 65lbs in the last year and I also lose wieght when I am pregnant....I love being pregnant, and I was adopted so I also know the other side of not being able to have children through my moms eyes....I would love to give the joy of birth with a family, but exspecially a gay family....
Take care,
Eileen

		<description>Eileen,
I just read your entry and applaud you for having an interest in surrogacy. Contact Growing Generations www.growinggenerations.com to consult with them about being a surrogate. There are many people working with them in hopes of finding a surrogate. There are certain criteria required. Surrogates do get paid well for their services, but should be willing to help for more reasons than income alone.
Best of luck,
Tommy Starling</description>

		<description>HI 
My partner and I were just at the Family Week, and I have to say it was so nice to see all of the Gay couples with kids. I was amazed at the different families, and I think it is wonderful. I heard so many different stories, it was trully amazing...My situation is very different....I was straight for 30 years or so...I was married for 13 years, I was not very happy, and never knew why, I was never there emotionally for my husband...We had 7 children, they are wonderful, beautifull and I don't regret that part of the marriage in any way...I met my partner about 3 years ago, and we have been together since....she loves my seven kids, actually we call them our kids...The difference for us at family week is that our kids have a dad and two moms....okay so the point of my Blog is to find out where everyone goes for a surrogant mom....I was thinking about it, and wondering if that is something I could do...I am a stay at home mom, and I could use some extra money, and was wondering if people pay surrogates or what the deal is....I love being pregnant, but know I can not handle any more kids, 7 is good for me...I deliver well, and the kids we have are adorable....so if anyone has any info for me, please let me know...Thanks, Eileen</description>
