Hey, Gina welcome to this forum. Yes, you’re definitely right. We cant be unreasonable about this whole idea. As a surrogate is giving birth to our baby. So that is something that we can’t even argue on. However, I do believe that some of them can exploit as well. The reason why it is important to always have this middle person. Which is the agency as they help you find a healthy surrogate. Meaning that she has not had any past illnesses. This is important for her and the babies safety. The clinic I recently came to know about I believe one of the reasons for choosing them was this. Also, they make sure that once the surrogate is pregnant she is doing okay. They call her for regular checkups. They also make sure that she is having a healthy diet. I believe all these things are important to maintain an error-free process.
