[quote=NotSoAnonymous]Q:How did you and DW decide that DW would be the carrier? Do you worry that DW might get preferential treatment as to custody if you guys divorce? I think this happened to a couple in Vermont.

A:  It was very important for her to carry. If I was at all able to give that gift to her I wanted to. It would have been easier if I carried as we ran into infertility on her end, but again, it was almost primal, her wish to do this. We struggled for 2 years worth of expensive fertility treatments (which would have been covered under her insurance had we been married since it was a medical issue not just a no sperm issue).

I do worry about what would happen should we divorce. I have no legal rights to my kids. The Vermont case breaks my heart. I can't imagine losing my kids. I think it would kill me. On that cheery note I think enough of my wife that even if we did divorce she sees me as their parent and we would do custody as such. Or I would get the meanest lawyer I could find :)[/quote]
