Caitlyn was thinking about adopting a baby last winter but she has reportedly decided that surrogacy is the way to go, radaronline.com reports.

"Caitlyn wants another child desperately. She doesn't want to completely freak out the whole family, but her own children are totally behind the idea. She has her heart set on another child because she wants to be as actively involved in the pregnancy as possible from day one," a source said.

"She is suffering from the empty nest syndrome and she really wants to experience parenting from a mother's perspective," the insider added.
