[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What did the rich person do?

I’m not going to read a long article. Usually these things can be summarized in a few sentences. [/quote]

Everything possible to try to wreck the life of the surrogate who experienced still birth while hospitalized. Suing her, cutting off payments, leaving surrogate on the hook for hospital bills (including weeks of inpatient monitoring). Bi wants her to go to jail, lose her own son, etc.

Also mentions that placental problems are due to the dna of the embryo and this isn’t routinely disclosed to the GC. Gestational diabetes, placenta previa, abruption, etc.

Bi also said her next GC was perfect, despite the fact that her GC experienced severe bleeding necessitating an emergency hysterectomy and ICU admission with intubation.

[/quote]

Alternative version: GC lied to IPs about her living situation and concealed material information from them throughout pregnancy, including a placental abruption.  She then made a series of poor decisions that killed the fetus.  [/quote]

I don't agree that being a surrogate should give external parties control over your sex life, when you seek medical care, and full access to any information those people want to know about you.  I can't comment on her actual contract but I don't think she acted in bad faith and I believe she did what she could to ensure the baby's survival.

It's a mistake to sue a surrogate for a stillbirth. There is no legal punishment or monetary compensation that will offset the loss of the baby.   If someone tries to help you and it goes wrong, or does a job for you that's only 95% done right, suing them is basically just revenge when there's no chance of actually resolving the original problem.  Nothing will bring the baby back.[/quote]

The surrogate agreed to relinquish control over those things in exchange for money.  She then failed to abide by the terms of the agreement.  It’s a breach of contract like any other.[/quote]

There's literally NO proof that she was having any sex with anyone and even if she was, no proof that the sex had anything to do with the stillbirth. I've literally never heard of having sex leading to a stillbirth, you weirdo.[/quote]

If she had a placenta problem like previa they usually advise no sex as that can result in a placental tear which can absolutely lead to still birth.  But you’d have to be crazy to risk that if you were advised to avoid that, because odds are good you’d bleed out right along with the baby.

I had placenta previa with bed rest and also had birth trauma with another pregnancy.  I’m a lawyer so I’ve always wondered how surrogacy contracts allocate the cost of these risks including health risks anc risks of mortality to the surrogate.  Incidentally, I recall my specialist st Georgetown saying that placenta previa is more common with IvF -/ j think I was the only one on the wing with that who wasn’t an IVF mom or one with multiple previous c sections.  It makes some sense because previa is essentially an implantation problem.

As a long time lawyer, my general observation is that more people are crazy than you’d otherwise think.  And most litigants are crazy — lawsuits are a terrible way to resolve anything so a sane person will take almost any other viable option.  I’m sure her lawyers are waiting to get a chunk of change from hospital insurer.  [/quote]
