faced with this also
I have a friend who offered to do this for me too. I had no idea what to say, and didn't know if this was a common or unusual situation! So many things about it made me kinda uncomfortable. At first glance, it seemed like the answer to our prayers, but as I thought deeper some issues started to come up. She says she would not want the child to know that she was the birthmother yet would still want to be my friend, so this would require me to lie to the child! I just don't like the thought of that at all. And as I read the posts before mine, I think of those issues as well.
I only wish it could be this easy, but it just feels wrong in so many ways.
