This is heartbreaking to read. I'm horrified and just really sad that women are being treated like walking wombs and this is supposedly 'altruistic' surrogacy within a family. The poor woman ended up in therapy for a post traumatic stress disorder.

She had to gather her courage to tell her story and I'm sure there are countless others, we just don't hear about them as the media are so focused on the lovely fluffy stuff, a new family, a brand new baby, and the glossy pictures covers the ugly horrors underneath.

I’m anti surrogacy but I can’t see this is adding much to that position. It’s a somewhat confusing read - I couldn’t make out the bit about parental responsibility and then putting another child above your own - with no information on what actually happened.

I can’t see the story? No explanation of what actually happened?
