[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never had a child herself is disqualifying on its own, but with anxiety and depression too... yikes. The clinics want to be really, really sure that the surrogate won't freak out and decide she wants to keep the baby after it's born, even if it's not genetically hers.

I hired a surrogate, and the post-birth court order naming me as the parent of my own children wasn't completed for 3 days after they were born. That's 3 days for a surrogate with severe postpartum anxiety and depression to decide not to cooperate with the process of transferring parental rights. That's what clinics want to avoid.[/quote]

Yike. I thought all the legal things get taken care of in the surrogate agreement and that the surrogate never has parental right on the baby?  [b]She has problem with boundaries in the past, so as family member, I can see she will try to get involved with the parenting. Also, she is on government's help and can't afford her own place, so we'll have to let her stay with is during the pregnancy.[/b] [/quote]

You can't possibly be serious, right? This has to be a troll post? Just FYI, being on government assistance disqualifies surrogates as well (because agencies/ clinics don't want desperate women to feel coerced into doing this for money... or shelter).

There's no way any clinic, lawyer, or psychologist (surrogacy requires psych clearance for everyone involved) is going to allow this, OP. Also, she's going to lose her government assistance if you pay her... you were planning to pay her, right??[/quote]
