Surrogacy help

+1. There’s a reason that surrogacy is illegal in much of Western Europe. It’s exploitive.

Do you believe that about prostitution? Organ donation? Sperm donation? Egg donation? Maid services? Any other services? Aren't all services exploitative by that definition?

Is it? OK, that is helpful to know if true. Just seems like most things I read are about people going to agencies to either have the surrogate help them create a baby, or have them work with IVF places to get pregnant (i.e., continue to go through IVF process). We literally only have one embryo to transfer and that is it -- no more IVF, etc. In any event, helpful to know, thanks.

As for the peanut gallery, reading about people taking issue surrogacy on here is one of the more bizarre things I see. I get the problems with forced surrogacy overseas, but I can't for the life of me see how someone could take issue with someone want to help someone else start a family when they are unable to for health reasons. But obviously many must like to troll and/or watch the world burn. It is at least good entertainment reading the responses, so I appreciate that part of it.

It is off putting how you feel entitled to a surrogate (someone else’s body) to help you have a baby.

Try harder. Maid service as a comparison to surrogacy? You are simply an idiot.

You can’t see the issue of commoditizing babies? You seriously don’t see the ethics issue with that? Are you that obtuse?
Watch the world burn? What are you talking about? Are you medicating?

OK, got for it. I will give you a brief audience. Tell me why you think my situation is "commoditizing babies." This should be good.

I underestimated you; you are more obtuse than I gave you credit for.

Thank you, Mr. Dufresne. And great response -- very educational.

You should not have any children if you cannot put it together yourself.

The common refrain of somehow who has nothing to say: "IF YOU DON'T KNOW ALREADY, THEN I CAN'T HELP YOU" Ha, classic.

Kind of like your comment.

Keep reaching. You’ve got a long way to go.

Amusing how people read into things to fit their agendas. Not sure how you got "entitled" out of my posts, but you do you. I guess I feel entitled to have someone clean my houses, do my taxes, check me out at the grocery store, bring me my food at a restaurant, etc. Gosh, I am feeling really entitled -- feels good.

Then why didn’t you get your “network of family and friends” to do it?

Yeah, those are all the same as a woman’s womb. I just thinking how exactly alike they are.

Lot of sad people trying to control women on here. Who are you to say a woman can't provide a service with her body if she wants? Wow, so much sexism -- kind of disgusting. OP here, btw.

Clean my house-make a baby. Check.
Do my taxes-use my body to make a baby. Check.
Check out at grocery-baby maker. Check.
Restaurant server-womb renter. Check.
No, not entitled at all.

I'm the other poster asking about (and not getting helpful responses on) surrogacy.

Weirdly, I'm in a very similar position as you. I've joined some groups online to learn more about the process. There are altruistic surrogates or ones that do it for lower fees (e.g. medical costs). But the agencies do take a big fee regardless.

Might be possible to find a surrogacy lawyer that has some suggestions for managing an independent relationship not through an agency.

Lots say it including women. Women are not for exploiting, sexist prick.

Op, you said you are a man. You have no say and you are disgusting to speak for women.

Maybe you both can do it together and have twins.

Hi there -- yeah, saw your post and almost responded, but then saw others recommending that you go elsewhere to avoid the trolls. I personally enjoy the trolls, as we all troll from time to time. Makes for good entertainment.

As for your situation, if you are the OP who has lost 6 pregnancies, I am terribly sorry. I can't even begin to imagine what you have been through, and are still going through. Frankly, if I manage to somehow find a good surrogate situation -- which apparently makes me "entitled" and "exploitive" -- then I will probably be inclined to give their name to you first. I have done a lot of research and what you said sounds right. The agencies are the "easy" route, but I was trying to figure out a creative solution to "match" another way. In any event, best of luck in your continued journey.
