First, thank you so much for giving us your opinion. I am not offended at all and believe me, we want to be at every appointment and if we could, we'd have her move in so that we could experience every little thing that our surrogate will experience during the pregnancy. Unfortunately, both my partner and I work and we live half way across the country from where our surrogate is. With our work schedules and expenses, it will be difficult to manage. Since our original posting, we've had several conversations about it and we will likely go to the milestone doctors appointments together and then rotate so that we can individually be at as many appointments as possible. Thank you again for giving us your perspective on it. Wish us luck!
