Ep 149: Making Dreams Come True with Surrogate Ashley Greene
In this episode we’re talking to Ashley Greene who is a surrogate. I wanted to chat with her because I know I have a lot of listeners who are not yet pregnant and I thought it would be good to talk about this as an option to expand your family. There may also be some folks who are curious about being a surrogate and what it’s like. Plus, I personally just wanted to know more about the subject. I learned a lot from my conversation with Ashley and I know you will, too.A surrogate can make a family's wish to have a baby a reality. Some people ask why go this route? Why not adoption? My answer to that is that, ultimately, it’s a very personal decision. There is no right or wrong choice. What matters is that the surrogate and the intended parent know what to expect and can help each other bring a baby into the world.
In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:-How Ashley decided it was the right time for her to become a surrogate
-What are the reasons that intended parents might choose surrogacy
-How long can it take to match with a surrogate
-How involved are the intended parents in the pregnancy and birth
-What are some of the legal aspects (spoiler alert: it’s complex)
-How does someone go about becoming a surrogate and what makes someone a good candidate for surrogacy
-How compensation is determined
-What are the costs associated with a surrogacy
