For couples who struggle with fertility issues, there may be hope on the horizon as surrogacy, or as it’s more commonly known, carrying another woman’s baby for her. Finding and working with a surrogate mother can be an overwhelming endeavour, especially when you consider that, sometimes, your surrogate will put herself at risk to bring your child into the world. It’s important to make sure that your surrogate gets what she needs to thrive throughout her pregnancy and beyond, which will ensure that she’s ready and willing to give birth if necessary.
