29-year-old Breanna Lockwood documented the process on her Instagram page to inform her audience about the emotional and physical turmoil after multiple miscarriages and ectopic pregnancy. She said her mother Julie Loving, 51, decided to step in but Lockwood became skeptical at first. After learning she had developed scar tissue in her uterus, Lockwood asked her mother to act as her surrogate.
“After many many years of infertility and loss, we had our doctor come to us and say that ultimately my uterus was incapable of growing a child,”
Loving underwent hormone therapy and several tests before she could carry her grandchild. Doctors noted she was in great shape for her age since she was a marathon runner.

“The sacrifices she took to bring this little slice of heaven into our world takes my breath away. Holding my daughter in my arms my heart is bursting. The feeling of how I would do absolutely anything needed for this child is radiating through me when I look at her, and reflects back on what my mom did for me.”
