Surrogacy is a reproductive practice that has been strongly marketed in India as a solution for childless couples. As a result, the number of surrogacy clinics is increasing. The surrogate mother in India is neither an employee nor a servant. A surrogate is more than just an incubator to carry a fetus. She is the primary caregiver to the Intended Parents’ nascent family. For nine months the surrogate will carry the pregnancy and take care of the developing baby. Starting with an array of medical and psychological evaluations, followed by weeks of fertility treatments, the surrogate mother’s role will take a full year to complete.
