Following an ovarian cancer diagnosis I went through a complete hysterectomy. I had to accept I was not fertile and would never bear a child. A friend at work offered to bear children for me, just tell my husband to take it easy on her. Three children later he ‘likes’ having her with him. By that I mean wrapped up in his arms playing the hokey pokey. At first I was jealous, but I’m not anymore, if he’s happy, she’s happy, I’m happy.
Glad it worked out for you. My husband was fertile so we got his best friend to put several babies in me. We three get along and he moved into the house next door.
