Who can be a Surrogate Mother?
We take every situation on its own merits. Ideally a Surrogate Mother would have completed her own family. If doing Host Surrogacy she would have to comply with the rules of the clinic they are using. Clinics’ rules vary as they take a lot of elements into consideration, such as health issues, age, weight etc. If carrying out a Straight Surrogacy Arrangement, the Surrogate should ideally be under 35 years of age, since the chance of Downs Syndrome is higher after this age. However, this is not essential. In fact, we have many ladies up to the age of 40 being Straight Surrogates. What matters most is that the Surrogate Mother and the Intended Parents are completely honest with each another.
