For those who have been or are currently going through surrogacy, when and how did you tell family, friends, and work? Any advice on creative or fun ways to share the news? Also curious about telling service workers in your life— your coffee shop barista, cleaning lady, apartment building doorman etc. Did you surprise anyone by just showing up with a baby?
