There have been many cases where surrogate mothers have defrauded couples who desperately need their help. Please note that these tests will give you insights into her personality, but will not tell you if she will be a good surrogate mother and will relinquish the child. The most important tool a professional can use is the Intake Interview. Debbie, couples are evaluated as well as the surrogate mother in some programs. Our program evaluates couples for over 6 hours before we accept them.
Some programs never meet the couple.
Hi LaRee, when a surrogate mother miscarries, the money she has already received she keeps. Apart from medical costs already incurred, there should be no additional costs to a couple. If they want to try again with the same surrogate mother, you normally have to wait 2-3 months for her body to get back to normal. However a sure way to ruin a good friendship is not to have a contract. The contract should be viewed as an outline for your relationship.
