We’ve heard many different things. Our babies at 5 have been asking about mom, and we attempted to explain to them that their “mom“ helped us have children, but never really got to explain surrogacy in details to them. they already seemed a bit confused. When do y’all think is the best age to explain to kids that they were born via surrogacy?

How did you build your family?

Curious to hear everyone’s stories — surrogacy, adoption, fostering, co-parenting, donor conception, whatever the path looked like.
