Would you ever consider being a surrogate mother?

For instance, you have a family or friend who can not conceive on their own for whatever reason. Would you be their surrogate?

I have HORRIBLE pregnancies with morning sickness the ENTIRE time and going through all that, would probably not be able to give up the baby so NOPE.

Yes, if they were close enough that I could see the baby regularly.

(((hugs))) that is so tough. I'm not sure of any organizations but I'm sure there are some out there that match women up with surrogates.

Nope, not ever. 

It would be hard for me to give up the child that has been growing in my belly for 9 months. Once the stick says positive the bond for me starts there, there is no way I could convince myself that I'm just a pod and this child isn't really mine.
