It's Okay to Talk About Surrogate Compensation in Idaho
Many potential surrogates feel uncomfortable discussing money. They worry about appearing greedy or that compensation somehow diminishes the gift they’re giving. These feelings are completely normal, but it's important to know that you deserve to be fairly compensated for your incredible contribution.
Surrogacy involves significant physical, emotional and lifestyle sacrifices. Compensation recognizes the value of what you're providing. And the intended parents feel the same way — they would give their surrogates everything if they could.
“The family I worked with gave me extra little gifts and meals, and I told them, ‘You’re already giving me enough.’ Their exact words were, ‘You’re giving us a baby. There’s no amount of things we could give you that will ever be enough,’” said Brittany, a repeat surrogate and another one of our surrogacy specialists.
