So the states limit how much women can charge for carrying a child for another person/couple but contractors can charge whatever they wish to do a damn kitchen remodel. Ok- nice that the states are still telling women what they can and can't do with their bodies.
Yes couples or a person who's pursuing a surrogacy has to pay for every procedure associated with the surrogacy whether it's with the mom who is having her own eggs retrieved and the father who's having his own sperm involved, there's cost associated with the surrogate being medically screened and treated for the transfer of ebryo(s).
There are costs associated with every aspect and step.surrogates are compensated for every medical visit on top of the fee for carrying the child. At least when I did it the surrogate was given or compensated for every procedure anf medical visit involved whether or not the end result was a viable pregnancy. Their travel expenses, medical insurance, life insurance. Psych evaluations for both a surrogate and her husband if she's married. Child care for her children. Travel expenses and compensation for the travel itself. Anything associated with the surrogacy there is a fee attached to it. If someone goes through an agency there would be an all-inclusive situation, yet all of the expenses are considered and factored into it.
Absolutely. Surrogacy is a priceless gift, in my (humble) opinion.
I understand the rational of limiting the fee, in theory, as it ensures that wealthy people aren't exploiting poor women or vice versa. However, at the same time, it just seems that the rates are not proper compensation. It's such a priceless gift....guess it's hard to place a value on it.
Also, women who are interested in being a surrogate must have altruistic motivation rather than financial.
I, also, think it's such an altruistic gift. No price on it.
Did you guys know that women who become surrogates need to take injections for months before implantation? They take hormones and Lupron in order to "cycle" and prepare their body. I found out because I was researching about Lupron as my doc was advising me to take it for another matter. I was shocked to find that out. These are STRONG drugs.
I once read a blog about a woman who chronicled her journey into surrogacy. She had done it many times and her blog was almost like an online diary with photos. I couldn't stop reading because I was fascinated by it. And she wrote so well. It made me cry to read about the days she gave birth and gave the baby to their "mom" (the IPs, or intended parents are very first to even catch and hold the child!). As a mother, I cannot imagine the feeling!

Mods please delete if this is not allowed hahaha. I don't know anymore. Though it's a public blog and is still part of the discussion on what Kim's going through.

Kim’s Robber Writes Apology Letter

One of the men who awaits trial for his part in the high-profile crime reached out to Kim to make amends with her before his day in court comes up. Sixty-year-old Aomar Ait Khedache sent a letter to the judge in his case who then turned it over to Kim’s legal team in France.

She recently confirmed she and husband Kanye West are expecting her third child via surrogate.
And Kim Kardashian certainly looked in good spirits on Monday, when she was spotted rocking a casually stylish ensemble in Los Angeles.
The 37-year-old reality star icon went braless underneath her plunging crop top to give a flash of cleavage, and swept her hair into a tight low bun - implying she had removed her famous extensions.
