The seven most extraordinary cases of surrogacy

Rental bellies is a complex issue that raises opinions of all kinds, due to the ethical, religious, legal and psychological debate that it raises. Rental mothers, surrogacy or surrogacy or surrogacy are given when a woman agrees to become pregnant with the goal of gestating and giving birth to a child who will be raised by others as if they were her parents.

In some countries, such as Spain, it is a prohibited practice, while in other countries of the world it is allowed, such as the United States, where it has been practiced for more than forty years. There is really extraordinary cases of surrogacy that make us see another dimension in this way of becoming parents who are gaining more and more followers.

Grandmother, 61, gives birth to her grandson

The altruistic subrogation is a fairly widespread practice and the one that attracts the most attention, which occurs when relatives or close friends lend themselves to gestate and give birth to the couple's son who cannot do so due to biological impediments.

In this case, she has been the mother of the woman, the child's own grandmother who offered to carry him in her womb at least 61 years old.

After six in vitro fertilization treatments, the death of twins in a premature delivery and an abortion, Sara Connell and her husband began to consider surrogacy. When her mother offered her they thought she was giving them the greatest gift in the world. Sara tells everything in her book Bringing in Finn about how her mother brought her son into the world.

A woman breeds and gives birth to her son's son gay

It has been a controversial case since Kyle Casson was, at 27, the first man in the UK to have a baby through surrogacy.

The fertilized egg of an anonymous donor and her sperm was implanted in her mother's womb, 46 years old. According to the law, he could be his brother, since he is a son born to his mother, but he finally got to be recognized as a son and could adopt him.

Japanese surrogate mother gave birth to her grandson

It happened in 2008, and it was a very popular case because it happened in Japan, a country where obstetricians are quite reluctant to employ surrogate mothers.

This woman's daughter lacked a uterus and donated a fertilized egg with her partner's sperm to her 61-year-old mother, so that the embryo could develop for her.

A friendship that goes beyond

Tamara and Logan are united by a very, very special friendship. Both are, somehow, mothers of the same child. Tamara had a lot of problems with her first daughter, born extremely premature with just 500 grams. She wanted to have another child, but she was afraid to go through the same thing again and her friend Logan did not hesitate: she offered her uterus to gestate her son for her.

What we see is an impressive image of the first moments of life of the child, given birth by Logan and breastfed by Tamara, his "biological" mother. If you want to know more about the history of these two friends here you can find it complete.

37 year old woman addicted to pregnancy

Tara Sawyer, a 37-year-old British woman confesses to being addicted to pregnancy. He has four children of his own and has gestated 3 children as a surrogate for two gay couples.

Rental mother of 13 children

The British Carole Horlock is a surrogate mother of no less than 13 children, plus two of her own, becoming the most prolific substitute mother in the world. There were nine with their ovules and four with donated ovules. Two years ago, with 46, he decided it was time to leave.

A baby is born two years after his mother dies

It was the first case of embryo implantation of a deceased woman in a rented belly, which allowed the birth of a baby two years after her mother died.

It happened in Israel, where after a long legal battle, the attorney general's office allowed a man use two of the frozen embryos years before his wife, Keren, died due to cancer.

Due to their great desire to be parents, the husband hired a rental belly in the United States to create one of those embryos, from which a girl was born with the genes of her biological mother that she has not come to know.
