Top Questions to Ask Before Becoming a Surrogate

Introduction

Becoming a surrogate is one of the most rewarding journeys you can take, but it’s also a serious commitment. Before you move forward, it’s important to ask thoughtful questions to make sure you’re fully prepared—physically, emotionally, and legally. At Surrogacy4All, we’ve compiled this list of the most essential questions every aspiring surrogate should ask.

Questions to Ask Yourself

• Am I doing this for the right reasons?
• Do I fully understand the emotional aspects of carrying a child for someone else?
• Am I comfortable with the idea of being pregnant but not parenting the child?
• Do I have the time and flexibility for medical appointments and possible bed rest?
• Do I have the support of my partner, family, or close friends?

Questions to Ask Your Surrogacy Agency

• What are the medical requirements and processes involved?
• How does matching with intended parents work?

• What kind of psychological support is available?
• What happens if complications arise during pregnancy?

Questions About Compensation & Benefits

• What is the base compensation range?
• What additional reimbursements will I receive (e.g., travel, maternity clothes, lost wages)?
• When and how are payments made?
• Is life insurance included?
• What happens if the cycle is cancelled or postponed?

Questions to Ask Your Partner or Support System
