Couple Will Pay For A Baby They Will Never See - Surrogacy Issues


    A British couple is very angry with the Child Support Agency and the law when they were forced to pay to a surrogate mother to raise a child they will never see.

    The couple chose a single mother of two through a surrogacy website. The wife had six late stage miscarriages and were desperate to have a child. They agreed to pay the surrogate mother some 10,000 pounds but in the middle of her pregnancy she decided to keep the baby.

    The judge backed her decision since she was the biological mother of the child even when she broke her promise. The couple knew the child would be emotionally distorted if she would be split into two homes so they agreed ultimately to allow the mother to keep the child and keep half of the money they had given her already for her service. However, the couple are angry that they have to pay some 600 pounds every month to raise the baby girl since the husband is the biological father anyway.

    The couple are upset that though they have no right to see the child yet it is unfair to pay every month to raise this child. The baby was supposed to be the couple's yet she decided half way to keep the baby herself. They think that perhaps it is how this woman makes a living by fooling rich couples.

    Well, this is quite sad for the couple. They wanted to have a baby but ended up bearing the responsibility of a child they will not even see. Unfair. Surrogacy agreements are not legally binding in British courts even with a formal contract so the risks of surrogacy can be huge in certain similar cases.

Grandma becomes the oldest surrogate mother

    This has been an amazing story. Pamela Butler’s daughter Nichola was not medically able to give birth, which is why her mom became the oldest surrogate mother in Britain. She is 57 year old.

    Pamela gave birth to a healthy 5lb 12oz Josef by Caesarean section in August. And Josef is a very cute boy.

    Although Mrs Butler was worried about her age but she wanted to help out her daughter.

    ‘It was the greatest gift I could have given her. It’s wonderful to watch her being a mum now. The doctors were wonderful and very reassuring. Luckily it was an easy pregnancy and it was the most wonderful moment when Nichola held her son for the first time. It didn’t feel like he was my baby but it was just that I was carrying him for Nichola. I babysit for him sometimes and he’s just a wonderful little lad.’

    The risk for pregnancy increases with age. If you’re 35 or above, then you must decide carefully to become a surrogate mother. Anyway, this must have been a miracle for Nichola & her husband. The couple went through 4 fertility treatment, cause 3 times it just failed.

    Nichola knew that she would not be able to become pregnant as her womb didn’t develop properly. At 1st she & her husband thought of adoption but then they decided on surrogacy.

    Earlier this month, a court issued a parental order legally recognizing Mr and Mrs Pagett as Josef’s parents, as in England and Wales, at the moment of the child’s birth, the surrogate mother is also the legal mother.

    I think this story is a ray of hope for all those people who don’t have kids. The desire to have kids is very natural. It doesn’t matter if you’re a fan of kids or not. Having your own child is a different thing. I think Nichola is one lucky woman & her mom made her dream come true. What more could you ask for!
