Kate

from The Australian Surrogacy Podcast · host Sarah Jefford

Kate is an intended parents from WA, who is now the parent of Jack, who was born through surrogacy earlier this year. You may recall hearing from Kate's surrogate, Michelle, in Episode 51. Kate was born with MRKH, meaning she knew for many years that her only option for having a biological child was through surrogacy. She did her research, developed a friendship with Michelle and her family, and they progressed through the WA surrogacy process. Whilst Michelle's pregnancy with Jack was pretty smooth, the moments after the birth were pretty hairy. Kate now tells that story, from her perspective. What's it like being an intended parent, watching your surrogate face birth complications that risk her wellbeing and life? And how are Kate and Kris going now, 4 months after becoming parents?
