Traditional Surrogate

What is Traditional Surrogacy?

Traditional surrogate.



Traditional Surrogacy differs from Gestational Surrogacy.

A Traditional Surrogate is the biological mother of the child or children she carries for intended parents.

Unlike Gestational Surrogacy, there generally are no medications to take or inject, and there are no IVF transfers to implant embryos into the carrier.

A traditional carrier will become pregnant via artificial insemination, using samples from the intended father.

She will then go on to have a normal pregnancy, and when the baby is delivered, will sign away her parental rights to the intended parents.

Most states view this type of surrogacy as an adoption, and honestly, the situations are very similar.

Being either type of surrogate mother is difficult, both physically and emotionally, for the entire family.



Here are the main differences in Traditional and Gestational Surrogacy:

Traditional Surrogacy

No Invasive Medications or Procedures

Not a Large Risk of Multiples (twins, triplets, quadruplets)

Harder Emotionally as Child is Biological Child

Gestational Surrogacy

Invasive Medications and Procedures

High Risk of Multiples

Child is Not Biologically Related

There are slightly different requirements to become a Traditional Surrogate. Mostly that family medical history and physical looks play a part in it all.

Compensation is slightly lower as a traditional verses a gestational carrier. This is due to the fact that there are less invasive procedures.

It takes a very special woman to become a Traditional Surrogate mother.

This is your own child that you would be giving up.

With Gestational Surrogacy, you simply give back the child you have been growing, a child that never belonged to you in the first place.

But Traditional Surrogacy is different.

This is your own flesh and blood.

Your own biological child.

You have to go into it knowing that that child does not belong to you at all, but even then, it is a difficult process.

If you have had your tubes tied, you are probably not eligible to become a traditional carrier. In order to carry, you would need to either have your tubes reversed, or you would need to go through In-Vetro Fertilization in order to conceive. Instead, consider Gestational Surrogacy.
