146. Grieving the "Only Child" stage

As Marisol and Adam move forward with surrogacy, Marisol recounts the feelings of grief and loss she is experiencing at this otherwise joyful and exciting time. The couple went out of town this weekend with their son, Neo and noted that it felt like Neo had recently taken a large developmental leap. They both shared how he felt more connected to Marisol more cuddly than ever before.
