I am a 30-year single lady who is into acting as a career. I had my first child about four years ago and it was a very excruciating experience which I don’t want to repeat. I will appreciate it if you can advise me on the use of surrogate mothers (the act of using another woman whom I will pay to help carry my next pregnancy for me). Thank you.

Although surrogacy is quite legal, it also requires significant commitment from both parties, and it is important to consider all of the pros and cons of surrogacy before beginning the process. A legally binding contract outlining everyone’s expectations will be negotiated and signed prior to the embryo transfer, so everyone will know exactly what to expect during the surrogacy process. A court order can also be obtained prior to birth of the child, confirming the intended parents’ legal rights. Having said this, it is important to know that surrogacy can be complicated. Gestational surrogacy involves complex medical procedures, and surrogacy laws. Legal processes can be overwhelming at times. It is important to work closely with a trusted professional lawyer to ensure the process is completed safely and legally.
