Surrogacy: Why Do Most Couples Prefer It Over Adoption

The desire to become a parent is innate! But when your physical inability shatters your dream of starting a family, it can feel not very pleasant. 

Surrogacy: Why Do Most Couples Prefer It Over Adoption

If you cannot have a child, know that your door to parenthood isn’t permanently shut. Have you ever considered surrogacy? Even though adoption is the first option that comes to mind, here are some reasons why you should not overlook surrogacy:

Genetic Connection

For many couples, having a biological connection with the child is very important. It might be because they feel it helps in bonding. They might also want to see some traits of their own in their child. 

Improved Pre-natal Care

When you opt for surrogacy as a road to parenthood, know that your surrogate mother will receive the best prenatal healthcare. Before being selected to have your child, a surrogate must undergo an extensive medical and psychological evaluation. She is screened to ensure that she lives in a stable, supportive and healthy home environment. Also, the fee you pay to the surrogacy centre covers her healthcare costs. With surrogacy, you are ensured that both your baby and the gestational mother receives the best care from the start.

Opportunity to Select the Surrogate

With surrogacy, intended parents get more control over who will carry their child. When you select a surrogate agency, you’re assigned a case manager who will work with you to ensure you get the surrogate you wish. The decision to reject or approve a surrogate is entirely up to you. 

Participation in the Pregnancy

Through surrogacy, you can be a part of your child’s life from the start. As soon as your surrogate’s pregnancy is confirmed, you can participate in the entire pregnancy journey. From attending medical appointments to set up the nursery, just because you’re carrying your baby inside doesn’t mean you can miss other aspects of pregnancy. 

When Adoption is NOT a Possibility

Unfortunately, certain laws in a particular county may not enable a couple of individuals to adopt. For instance, many countries still do not allow lesbian and gay couples to adopt. In such cases, surrogacy offers a ray of hope. 

Through surrogacy, individuals and couples have the opportunity to be involved in the entire process; from conception to birth.

How Does The Traditional Surrogacy Process Work?

Traditional Surrogacy Definition Traditional surrogacy is also referred to as genetic or partial surrogacy, mainly because the surrogate shares a biological link to the child she is carrying. There are many emotional and legal variables involved in traditional surrogacy; however, this may be a better option for some people. People who may pursue a traditional surrogacy process are: Same-sex male couples Single Men or Women Intended mothers who are unable to produce viable eggs Heterosexual couples and some women who can generate viable eggs but cannot safely carry their baby to term are more likely to pursue gestational surrogacy.
