Vacay Surrogacy

The other night I had a dream that my mom was a surrogate parent for me and almost full term. A few weeks before her due date, she calls me on the phone and tells me that she is in labor and the baby is going to be born within the hour. I rack my brain thinking how I can get there in time so I don't miss the birth of my own child and then sink as I realize there is no possible way I can be there on time--not by plane, train or automobile.

Do you think I am feeling anxious about missing out on my girls lives while my mom is watching them when I am in Switzerland and France in two weeks?

your so sweet. i would just be excited to get away. I'm sure by the end you will want nothing in the world but to get back home to them but it will be so WONDERFUL to have time for just you and Dave. I'm jealous:)

How wonderful for you mom to get to watch your girls. Nothing is more bonding and how lucky for you to have her available. You will have a much better time knowing she is there.

Maybe...but drop the guilt and ENJOY! You will get to look forward to the sweet reunion where they can do no wrong...for the first day anyway :)

I am going through the same thing right now! I think my Paris trip would be much more enjoyable without the accompanying guilt trip.
