Surrogate caught drinking, forced to abort baby

Share

Marty and Melinda were busy with their careers and couldn’t have kids.

They retired early and moved to the Caribbean to start a family.

They chose surrogacy over IVF due to unreliable local medical services.

After a bad experience with their first surrogate, they found a better agency in California.

The new surrogate had to follow strict rules, but she broke one by drinking alcohol.

They terminated the pregnancy and cut ties with the surrogate.

With a different agency for their second child, the process was smooth and successful.

The couple paid over $300,000 for both children via surrogacy.

They advise others to research well and be prepared for unexpected situations.
