WE are pregnant. Surrogacy is a team effort?

A very well known baker in Australia who I follow on FB is using a surrogate.

No, It’s not a team effort. Your surrogate is pregnant, not you or your husband. He also wants pregnancy terminology overhauled? Why has this made me so angry?

I thought of this topic when I read this in the times this morning

Yes @ErrolTheDragon isn't it sad that babies clearly benefit from mothers and yet are taken from them and lose their only sense of connection with the world for their first 9 months.

I wonder what neurological changes occur for the babies, due to this sudden separation.

Errol, thank you for sharing that. My preemie is 27 years old now, but the sorrow of remembering the pain he suffered in his earliest days never leaves me. The thought that my voice brought him comfort is bringing tears to my eyes.
