Me: I can't surrogate anymore either, which is something I really wanted to do.
Angela: You can't surrogate?
Me: Well not if I can't get pregnant.
Angela: You could still be artificially inseminated, couldn't you?

Definition: Gestational surrogacy is a fertility option, which allows the intended parents to achieve a pregnancy by first creating embryos through IVF and then transferring these embryos to another woman, called the gestational carrier, or gestational surrogate.
TADA! I can still do this!

I've just submitted my application to the Surrogacy In Canada Online agency. I've started the process that will allow me to gift someone a human being.

Received an e-mail from the agency director!
Your application looks great but unfortunately we cannot accept surrogate mothers that are on social assistance.
Looks like my job hunt was just kicked up a notch.

Hi there, I'm Stephanie. I'm a single mother to two (girl is 9, boy is 3). I had a tubal done in April 2013 and basically thought my hopes of being a surrogate were over. Well not so!
I've created this blog to help myself, and anyone else that's interested, learn more about gestational surrogacy. Plus I thought it'd be a fun way to document the important milestones throughout this adventure!
