Not disagreeing with your comment, but $50k??? That's IT??
What a fucking insult. That is some straight up exploitative shit.
That's just the cash payment. All of the medical stuff is paid for, usually further amenities so the surrogate maintains low stress and such for the health of the baby.
Giving birth can stop you from working for a few months. Given this, if you're working as a surrogate you may have to give up important career opportunities. 50k is a pretty low price on that missed work.
You're not wrong, but I was extrapolating based on the other individuals perception.
If it makes you feel better, it's usually more. There are a lot of factors, including how much the surogacy agency gets for their cut, which state or country, if they are a family member or friend, whether the parents are able to add a surrogate on their insurance, etc.
We looked into it because I'm older and thus higher risk, but ultimately decided against it. My neice even offered to carry our kid, but I just feel too guilty. I'm kind of whatever on having children but my husband has dreamed of being a dad since he was a lil' boy
That's why you get a woman from a third world country that can retire in leisure on these $50k.
