5699: Steph offers to be Libby's surrogate
With Libby back in Erinsborough following her visit to see Billy and Anne's new twins, Steph worries that she isn't coping after what happened to Grace and urges Libby to talk to Dan.

Later, when talk at the poker game turns to all things baby related, an uncomfortable Libby makes her excuses and quickly leaves and is closely followed by a concerned Steph. Returning home, and with Dan by her side, Steph leaves the couple stunned when she offers to be their surrogate.
