"I just finished my first journey with Physician Surrogacy, and my experience so far has been fantastic. Special thanks to my case manager, Theresa, for her neverending support throughout the process, and especially getting ready for transfer. My intended parents are a perfect match for me – they live a little more than two hours away and have been really involved, which is exactly what I wanted. I had a scheduled c section so it made delivery a little less stressful and my intended parents were beyond incredible and even arranged a meal service for 2 weeks after delivery to make it easier for me to rest. This was a really great experience." https://surrogacynetwork.org/biz/physicians-surrogacy/

Dutch government plans to regulate surrogacy > The Dutch government is planning to regulate surrogacy by prohibiting commercial surrogacy, where women bear children for profit. Any form of payment to a surrogate mother, other than reimbursement of expenses, will be punishable by law. Both parties involved in commercial surrogacy could face up to two years in prison. > Altruistic surrogacy, where the surrogate mother does not have a financial profit motive, will be made easier. The government aims to provide clarity for the surrogate mother, the child, and the prospective parents. The new law will allow children born from surrogacy to have a good legal start. > The new legislation will also permit advertising for surrogacy. Prospective parents and surrogate mothers will be allowed to publicly announce their intentions. Previously, advertising for surrogacy was prohibited. cne.news/article/3305-dutch-government-plans-to-regulate-surrogacy schap
