Sometimes, couples or individuals want to be parents but are unable to conceive for multiple reasons. An intended parent is someone who longs to have their own children but has difficulties in doing so.
Every intended parent has a different story, but there are many common themes that enforce them to pursue surrogacy programs. Here’s all you need to know:
Who exactly is an intended parent?
Usually, intended parents are individuals or couples who have tried to have a biological child for many years through natural or in-vitro processes. They want to be parents so badly that they’re willing to pursue a variety of avenues, such as the surrogacy process. There are no ‘typical’ intended parents—they can be single women that are unable to carry children, single men that want children, same-sex couples, or heterosexual couples who struggle with infertility.
Different kinds of intended parents
While you may believe that intended parents are usually older people who have issues with infertility, there are many intended parents who are on the younger side as well. Around 12.3% of young adult women in the US tend to face difficulties in getting pregnant. Around half of them experience infertility. However, women aren’t alone in facing issues with infertility—around a third of the infertility cases in the US are because of issues with a male’s reproductive organs or sperm.
Singles or couples who decide to get a surrogate have probably already tried their hand at becoming parents through the exhaustive Vitro-fertilization process. When the IVF processes are deemed unsuccessful, the intended parents are forced to choose between living child-free, turning to adoption, or having a biological child through surrogacy.
Why choose surrogacy?
Many parents can’t let go of the dream of having their own biological child and make the decision to attempt a surrogate pregnancy. Parents can be a part of the pregnancy journey and know that the child will be theirs once the nine months are over—they don’t have the same confidence in another process such as adoption.
