Hello steemians this is another educative article which I will love each and everyone of us to read and understand.
WHAT IS SURROGACY
Surrogacy is a contract based of practicing childbearing in which a woman gives birth to a child not her own, but with the intention to give the child up to the biological parents. This is practiced in some part of the world in some cases where the Husband doesn't want to lose the body shape of his wife due to childbearing, or a cause of infertility among couples or in a case where the body of the wife is too old to grow a baby or based on medical conditions.
Surogacy is a method or agreement where by a woman agrees to carry a pregnancy for another person or persons, who will become the newborn child's parent(s) after birth. A surrogate mother is a woman who carries a foetus and bears a child on behalf of commissioning couples having agreed to surrender the child to that parent(s) at birth or shortly thereafter.
A woman who carries a child in pursuance of arrangement made before she began to carry the child and with a view to any child carried in pursuance of it being handed over to, and the parental right being exercised. Surrogacy as an alternative to or treatment for infertility has increased in the past two decades.
