How I did it: I don't feel qualified to advise how to accomplish this goal, but since this stupid thing is making me write more, I guess I would say, only do this with someone you love and is willing to help raise this child. It is a tremendously hard thing to do and should be done with two people. I respect homosexual couples, but at the same time I think a child deserves the guidance of both sexes. but most of all it needs love. I was raided by a single mother who loved me and I turned out fine, but just because I turned out fine, doesn't mean my experience could have been better. Good luck

Lessons & tips: The best tip I ever received was from my labor trainer. She told me that giving birth was like a freight train and I was just along for the ride. I couldn't control it so just accept that I had no control and marvel at what my body could do.
