What are the Types of Surrogacy?
While all surrogacy arrangements involve a woman carrying a baby for another person or couple, there are two basic types of surrogacy. The first is traditional surrogacy. With this type of arrangement, a woman is artificially inseminated with the sperm of either the intended father or a sperm donor. The child she becomes pregnant with and eventually delivers is genetically her own baby, as her own egg is fertilized as part of the process.
