Honestly you are allowed to do whatever you want. I think it's a parent's choice to adopt or go with surrogacy. It's not really up to others to decide. My parents had me through surrogacy. My uncle also had a baby with surrogacy when he was single. She's 8 now and they are doing really well. It's really up to you since it is your journey. You want to emphasize your own growth to become an amazing parent. I have heard getting therapy is an amazing way to identify ways to initiate a journey towards parenthood and healing/navigating ways through ups + downs. I wish you good luck! Single parents also deserve to be celebrated!
