Ok, this is going to sound insane, and yes I have a appointment with my doctor (who also happens to be a fertility specialist) coming up and I'll speak with her but in the mean time I wanted to see if anyone had ever heard of this or had any ideas....
So a dear, old friend of mine and her husband can't carry a pregnancy and I have made the offer to surrogate, well researched on the legal and medical ramifications.
Here's the thing though, my husband and I aren't done having kids, in addition I work a very physical job that requires me to go on light duty while pregnant. My company is perfectly happy to accommodate this but only if I am carrying or at least attempting to carry my own child.
So my question is, do you think it would be possible to create an embryo for each couple and implant both, assuming that if both implanted they will carry as fraternal twins, and if only one implanted the parents could be aware early on through a spectrum blood scan in pregnancy? Would my insurance drop me if only the other couples baby implants? Or would they cover my care because it's my body?
Anyone ever heard of this?
