DP. Idk about all that. I’m also in my early 30s and think it’s kind of sick for privileged women to feel entitled to an underclass of poor women to literally carry their children for them. These surrogates don’t even make that much money! Less than six figures for nine months of pregnancy.

I mean she has a career. She's not Reece Witherspoon, but she has a career.

This is my issue with her story. Being pregnant for 10 months + the postpartum period is just so inconvenient for her career that she has to have another woman carry her child — but what does she think will happen when the child is actually here?


To be fair, they had twins which probably wouldn't have happened naturally for her (and given her build, not a good candidate for carrying twins). So if you want two kids you technically have to say 20 months + postpartum, which is what I think she was getting out when she said 2+ years.

I'm not justifying her choice, just pointing out the surrogate did have twins.

Feds on DCUM have platinum health benefits and the most generous paid maternity leave. Nobody in DC is sacrificing anything. It's a cope by hags to justify wasting their prime.


The fed maternity benefits began in 2020 so most of us here didn’t have access to that when we had babies. We got 12 weeks FMLA and could use up our sick and vacation time for that if we wanted to get paid. A lot of companies have much better benefits.
