Back to square one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />. Why does this have to be so hard?

She registered under several different names and was coming back on the Surrogacy boards. I didn't have to say a thing. The owners caught her and banned her IP address. There were beware warnings posted on SMO and SSO about her. And other IPs had been contacted by her. So the warnings have helped. Sooooo life goes on. I am not out! I am up and at it again. This time I am looking to adopt and a surrogate. Which ever comes first is fine with me. I am not putting all my eggs in one basket anymore. Adoptive mommy to 4 , Last 2 adopted nursed.

I don't say this to rub it in god forbid, just know there are lots of wonderful surrogates out there. I'm praying you find one soon!
