cost of surrogacy??

Question

my husband and i have been trying for years for a baby. weve tried adopting twice, the first fell through b/c the mother had a change of heart, the second the babies (twin boys) passed away. we still love the twins as if they are our own. my husbands cousin approached us and asked if we'd thought of surrogacy. she said shed always wanted to do that for someone and since we are family, it would make it all the more special. she doesnt want anything in return. its truly an act of love. i was just wondering what the cost may be.

Answer 1

It depends on what all is involved. IVF is around $8,000-10,000 now, then pregnancy costs (whatever is not covered by insurance) and then adoption costs (state regulated). This is one of the FEW times where I think surrogacy is moral and not exploitative.

My recommendation is to first contact a lawyer that deals with surrogacy for basics. You don't need a fee, but even if you are dealing with family, you want a contract to make clear what is paid by you and hubby and what is paid by your husband's cousin and what your expectations are. For instance, if the fetus is found to have Downs Syndrome, would you want the pregnancy terminated and would she agree to it? What decisions would you prefer to make understanding that ultimately everything is her decision?

If this cousin has never had children, I would seriously rethink the offer.

Answer 2

It costs about - $10,000 to $15,000. Pick a clinic that will give you 2 to 3 try's. Some do and some don't. Please don't find a clinic that gives you one chance. If you find a good clinic they will only charge you the 10-15 grand and give you a couple of chances with that money and not keep adding money on. Now surrogacy is great. But if she decides to do this with someone other than you then it will cost a total of - $50,000. I know people that have had the surrogacy done. Hope this helped.

Surrogacy Cost in India

What are costs ? When to pay ?

Initial surrogacy cost include cost of IVF+ Cost for surrogate mother cost.( It is variable depending on requirement of injection dose, procedure- IVF/ICSI+/-TESA). Once the surrogate mother is positive(pregnant), then the next payment starts on second month as installment. This is towards antenatal care, accommodation, medication, food, transportation and renumeration of surrogate mother. The further installments have to be done regularly, until the 6th month, when baby achieves viability.

Full payment is completed by that time. In case of unforeseen complications, further expenses may need to be paid. The renumeration cost is different for different surrogates as fixed by clinician and their demand.The cost also differs, depending on whether, they stay in hospital for 9 months or they go home.The cost will be higher in multiple pregnancy( Twins).
