Childless couples see surrogacy as their last available outcome for getting a biological baby. Such people will spend thousands of pounds on IVF and fertility drugs before finally realising that their last alternative to having a healthy baby are through surrogacy. This switch, from fertility problems to surrogacy, is a very big step in the right direction. 

It can be an incredibly emotional decision to discover at that point that they’ll need a surrogate mother to actually carry their new baby and become parents. ⠀ Even though a surrogacy process can offer them the motherhood experience they’ve been dreaming about, it won’t allow the childbirth experience they might actually want. Individuals who are infertile or struggling to get / stay pregnant are very often frowned on. To them, surrogacy is the way to overcome the pity and prejudice of not having a child. Surrogacy simply means that new parents can eventually fulfil their dreams of having a permanent family. It is a blessing that a honourable woman gives to those intended parents who might not have their own son or daughter. 

Surrogacy creates an intimate relationship between the intended parents and the mother surrogate. The surrogate, after all, helps them to have a family while the intended parents build a long — lasting, honest friendship with the surrogate mother.

Certainly, surrogacy can be altruistic or commercial, but if a process of commercial surrogacy is actively pursued, surrogacy goes beyond even money. To help a childless couple or individual become a real family, so many surrogate mothers do this. It is a generous act to donate their time and effort to actually assist intended parents. Many surrogates do this because they love the distinct feeling of becoming pregnant even if they set up a family of their own. It’s a sense of satisfaction and pride for them, as well as sharing experiences with intended parents. 

Surrogacy is a long process, but it is one that is happy to implement by many surrogate mothers. The significance of each surrogate mother’s surrogacy will be different and may be purely based on their own personal experience, which is why it is important for a prospective new surrogate mother to know the advantages and disadvantages of the whole process before committing to it. 

How people see surrogacy today can and should change over time. Since the surrogacy process started, it has been a controversial topic, although it is a common choice for intended parents after dealing with fertility issues or same-sex individuals to produce a family. The way surrogacy is seen will change with far more babies born from the surrogacy process. These children will see that their family went through a difficult process to make sure they were conceived. 

Their birth story will be a point of pride for them and their children. They are bound to talk to everyone about their experiences, leading to plenty of  conversations about the surrogacy process.
