Many women have issues when it comes to getting pregnant. Some are understandably frightened about the changes occurring in their bodies, while others may not be able to carry their babies naturally. Whatever the reason, some women choose different methods of becoming a parent including surrogacy and artificial insemination.

Certain parts of society look down on women who become surrogates. Conservatives make religious arguments and indecent comments that judge these generous women. Most people discourage women from committing to this because, in their minds, they consider this service a “moral mistake.”

Some people argue that women who become surrogates are the equivalent of prostitutes by letting others use their bodies to then give up a baby that was never theirs. However, carrying someone else’s child is not a crime, but a blessing to any person wishing to become a parent. It’s one of the most beautiful commitments a woman can make for another.

It’s understandable that this decision isn’t easy to make. As a surrogate, you’re saying something to the modern world that many close minded people won’t understand. However, some women become surrogates not just for the money—it does pay well—but because they know their service can give someone’s life new happiness.

Women looking to get pregnant often undertake fewer hurdles than men looking to have a child. For example, a woman, assuming she could carry the child herself, can simply choose a sperm donor. There may be other problems if she is infertile, prone to miscarriages or simply anxious about the pain of pregnancy and childbirth. Thus, women that become surrogates take up a big challenge. A woman could make a tremendous change in a family’s life.

Men looking to become dads someday are in a more difficult situation because they don’t have a womb to begin with. A couple could use their sperm and a donated egg, but they don’t have a uterus to carry the child, which makes becoming parents more difficult and super expensive. A man can live lonely in total freedom, without any responsibility, simply taking care of his own business if he  wishes to. But there are still some men that care and worry about becoming a parent. Having a baby is one of the most beautiful things a person can experience. Fatherhood can teach men how to be loving, caring and gentle.

Generous women who willingly become surrogates are difficult to find because not every single woman is able to do it. The judging comments against this commitment can change the mind of any woman willing to endure this, and thus deprive a person or a couple from the child they always wanted. Entering into parenthood itself is a serious decision that requires a thoughtful process. Women who bring other people’s children into the world are blessings to anyone who is unable to conceive a baby themselves.
