Hey there. It is glad that you have decided on surrogacy. It is a wonderful process. As far as you question is concerned, I never felt ashamed of it. I never hid it from my family. Since they all are very supportive. My husband stood by my side. He would not let me lose hope. I suffer from infertility too. Due to the chromosomal disability, I cannot conceive. Thanks to surrogacy I am a happy mom now. Ukraine is the best. I think you should go there. I hope you find your rainbow soon. And, the process goes as you have planned it to be. My best wishes are with you.
