Hi,
I have been thinking a lot about surrogacy, and the process. Myself and husband (hetero-couple) we have had a pretty difficult and rough fertility journey in the last 10 years.
But the journey to get here has had its own challenges. I am part of multiple surrogacy groups, and whilst, I have chatted and met many women who present themselves as surrogates, when I started chatting and share fertility journey to get to know, I was often just blanked, ignored, and shown no interest at all. Moreover, I felt like I was expected to charm them, and lure them into becoming our surrogate. I must have chatted with at least around odd 30 ladies.
The questions to you are - what did you do to match in your surrogacy journeys ? What did you say and ask to match ? Which platform did you match or was it independent ? What were your experiences like ?
The point is, when some of the surrogate mothers say: they genuinely want to help a couple form a family - I don'tt find that exactly true in many many of the cases. I won't go into the details of it, but would like to hear your views on your journeys.
I'd love to hear different views too.
