    Could give birth to any relative. Freeze your sperm or eggs now and someday your descendant could give birth to their own great-great-great-grandparent

    Which means, the other way around, a woman could also give birth to her own sister?

    Could even give birth to her own cloned twin sister without any father in the picture.

    Happened in my small town a few days ago. A 61 year old woman gave birth to her daughter’s daugther.

    She could also do this by sleeping with her son

    This has already happened more than once. Tinina Cade offered to carry her daughter Camilla Hammond and son-in-law Jason’s IVF embryos after her daughter’s struggle with infertility. She succeeded in getting pregnant and gave birth to a set of triplets in 2004, two identical and one fraternal, who are twenty now.

    This might seem totally random, but did you know the egg that eventually became you was actually formed in your grandmother’s womb?

    In a way your maternal grandmother has already been your surrogate. Egg cells develop in utero, so as your mom was gestating the egg that became you was created as well.

    OP didn’t take a shower or have an original thought, they just saw the front page of reddit and made shit up. https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fditu4g3uiljf1.png

    Actually… everyone woman who births a daughter, already had the genetic half of her grandkids inside her. Females develop all the eggs in utero they will ever have. Males do not… they make sperm constantly throughout their lifetimes but are not born with it. Crazy how that works…

    This post was right under this one. So it’s not just a technical shower thought

    This sounds like something they would do on SVU.

    I’m pretty sure that this has happened numerous times and is actually one of the preferred surrogates if the grandmother is young enough in order to keep it in the family.

    My mother is 41 years old. I am 27 years old with a 12 year old daughter. My mom gave birth to my little sister 3 years ago so it’s safe to say she can be the surrogate to my own kid hypothetically speaking.

    My girlfriend and I have been discussing this.

    Pretty sure there are documented cases of this actually happening.

    It was on “To Tell The Truth.” Not sure if she was surrogate to her biological grandchild though.

    This was the plot of a Chicago Med episode

    I was just reading an article yesterday about a woman who did almost exactly that. Her son died from brain cancer in his late twenties. She took his frozen sperm and a donor egg, but implanted the embryo into a surrogate rather than herself. She’s now both legally mom and grandma to her daughter.

    Happened in South Dakota back in the early 90s. Can’t remember the names. I was a newspaper photographer in Sioux Falls back then.

    FOUND IT

    Happening right now in Australia lol. Parents having kids for their kids . It’s a little weird

    A woman could technically give birth to her grandchildren by fucking her son, what’s your point?

    Someone watched that Matt Smith and Eva Green movie last night

  28. Gecko_Walks Avatar

    There is a biography show about “the most inbred family in the world”. I think they are in West Virginia or Virginia. The family tree is now a bush. It’s very sad but it’s true. Can’t remember the channel. Just Google it. You will see it. It’s really sad. Been going on for decades.

    Or if her dad assaults her (happened to Elizabeth Fritzl)

    Yeah. And you COULD walk around with ribbons hanging off your dick as it sways in the breeze. But you don’t.

    If a woman gives birth to a daughter, she is giving birth to the eggs that will someday become her grandchild.

  32. ivyta76 Avatar

    of course, this is logically but in real life this is impossible, i hope you know about that

    Imagine telling your kids they can call Grandma Mom during the holidays now that’s a family reunion nobody will forget.

    Science is so impressed with itself here; meanwhile, Alabama had been doing this for decades using their good, old-fashioned, know-how.

    And you could technically be your own grandpa
