This is hypothetical in the sense it will not be for quite a few years.
A close friend cannot carry a child (but can have a genetic one) she has no sisters or cousins and her mum is too old. When she told me my instinct was to offer immediately but I didn't as felt it would be bad to offer then think about it and withdraw the offer later. As I feel it would be much easier for her to have a close friend who she is comfortable with than a stranger.
Hypothetically I mentioned to my mum I would think about being a surrogate for a friend and she freaked out and basically said don't even concider it (my mum doesn't know this is a potentially real situation)
I've never had a baby and would want one of my own first and assuming that my dh agrees (he would obviously have to be completely comfortable and on board) and I can actually have children am I unreasonable to be concidering this?
I don't want to actually offer unless I am serious as I think this will be really unfair.
