[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]OP here. I’m starting to wonder if they used a surrogate. Would that make this any less weird?[/quote]

Maybe they do not want the child to know a surrogate was used. I haven't read the whole thread. If people know, it will be talked about. The child will hear. Maybe the mother would tell the child but wants to on her timeline. This desire for privacy, to keep silence re: details often happens with IVF and couples having fraternal twins.[/quote]

Yeah because keeping secrets from your kids always ends well.[/quote]

But apparently according to the other PP’s it’s fine to keep your pregnancy a secret from family members until after you give birth. [/quote]

DP Keeping your pregnancy private from a sibling and keeping surrogacy a secret from a child are two entirely different things involving different circumstances.

That this is not understood is a good indication of why certain people are not getting the pregnancy information they think they are entitled to. [/quote]

I'm actually not sure how one has to do with the other- unless OP's sibling is also keeping the surrogacy from everyone to protect the baby from hearing about it in a few years?  OP are they saying they had the baby, not the surrogate?[/quote]

OP here. They did not say anything either way, just sent a pic of the baby and announced it was born. That made me wonder if they possibly could have used a surrogate (they never mentioned anything about it), but I don’t have any evidence that they did. [/quote]
