The Pros and Cons of Becoming a Surrogate Mother

October 11, 2019 • admin • Pros and Cons

If you are curious about becoming a surrogate mother, you must know the pros and cons. As a fully-vetted surrogate mother, you can help a woman who is unable to conceive and/or carry a pregnancy to full term.

Surrogate Mother Pros and Cons

First and foremost, a gestational surrogate mother gives the gift of life. Second, a surrogate mother has no biological connection to the baby she carries – making separation at birth much easier. What are some other pros and cons of surrogacy?

Surrogacy Pros

Surrogate mothers are supported by a strong surro-sisterhood. Being a surrogate mother is a singular experience and others may not relate to the process. Many surrogate mothers have banded together to create solid support communities. Even after the baby has been delivered to the intended parents, many surrogate mothers continue to meet and offer support to others going through the process. Surrogate mothers get to re-experience the feeling of pregnancy. All surrogate mothers are already mothers and enjoy strong bonds with their children. Surrogate mothers love the experience of pregnancy. Surrogate mothers can relive the experience of pregnancy without expanding on their own family. Surrogate mothers receive fair compensation. We are proud to offer among the highest compensation packages for surrogates in the United States. Our fully-vetted surrogates can expect to receive between $35,000 and $40,000  in compensation for helping a couple achieve their dream of having a baby that is biologically related to one or both of them.

Surrogacy Cons

Surrogacy is physically demanding. Similar to a traditional pregnancy, surrogacy takes a toll on the body. Surrogate mothers must undergo medical and psychological screenings, attend interviews and appointments, and carry a baby for 9 months. Surrogacy is emotionally taxing. Being a surrogate mother can be emotionally difficult. At times, there are feelings of intense joy and excitement. Other times, she needs the support of family and friends. She is never alone as there are many surro-sisterhood support groups to lean upon. Surrogacy involves a significant time commitment. The surrogacy process – from application to delivering the baby – is a span of months. Surrogate mothers must confirm that they won’t be performing any intense activities or making major travel plans during the entire process.
