After the final pushes, the baby finally arrived.

After the final pushes, the baby finally arrived. The doctor cleaned him up and placed him straight onto the intended mom’s chest. Watching her and her husband sob with pure, overwhelming joy, I had only one overwhelming thought: Oh my god, I am finally free! I can sleep on my stomach again! Someone bring me a medium-rare steak and a massive plate of sushi immediately!

Seeing their family complete because of my hard work made me incredibly proud. I nailed the assignment. It felt like picking up a rare, priceless artifact for a best friend, keeping it safe during a long trip, and finally handing it over. Seeing them lose their minds with happiness just makes you feel like a rockstar. That’s the end of my first surrogacy journey—professional, flawless, and genuinely happy.
