I am loving the recovery period this time around. It is much different than my last surrogacy journey where I had baby blues in the beginning. This time around I feel very calm and so happy for Melissa. We keep in touch just about every day. My son met Ryan, and he absolutely loved him. He asked to hold him and sat with him for awhile. While I still have the typical emotions that seem to be all over the place, I find that I am doing overall well.
I am looking forward to everything to come between the holiday season with my family, watching Melissa experience the holidays with a little one, and all the future excitement ahead. Reflecting on this journey has been incredible and the feelings are so indescribable. We made it, we did it, and it’s just a sense of relief we were so blessed to get to this point. She is enjoying her baby, and I’m slowly making progress to adjust back to my lifestyle. I am looking forward to spending more time with my own family and knowing Ryan is with his.
