Free baby, 12 cents

“It didn’t need to be this way yet this is what the fertility world carefully created and designed. I was not supposed to know him or any of them. I was not supposed to want to.”

Questions

The surrogacy system as it’s designed

“We can all point to someone having a hundred kids as being beyond out of line but we can’t seem to hold in our hands the ability to question folks having just one kid using the same method.”

Perspectives

Surrogacy isn’t a “gay issue”

“It’s been helpful to recognize these differences in pathways to surrogacy as they are worlds apart: a gay male couple starts with surrogacy whereas a heterosexual couple gets there as their last step.”

Your Voice Matters

We need your story.

This is a safe space that centers our rights, our stories, our questions. If you were born through surrogacy and want to contribute, please consider sharing below.

“Our stories must be told and intentionally so, in all of the messiness, so perhaps one day a future surrogate kid has a semblance of something to fall back on.”
