Outsourcing business wombs in India

Outsourcing is not only done with internet technology, India just made a record for offline rising trend of Indian surrogates carrying babies for infertile women in US, Taiwan, Britain and beyond. These 15 young mothers of Anand are pregnant with the children of infertile couples from around the world.


They all shared a house where a team of maids, cooks and doctors looks after them. Anand surrogate mothers pioneers in the field of outsourced mothers. They already had given birth to estimated 40 babies. The program raises question on morals and modern science, exploitation and globalization and the couple's desires to have a family. Commercial surrogacy known as wombs for rent impregnated these hired women in-vitro with the egg and sperm of the couples. Young women flocked to the clinic to be listed.

What does it take to have a child? I can't answer exploitation but I know what hardship and being poor means among the Indian women. The country is already experiencing a very alarmingly high maternal death rate that goes with the pain and risk of labor. Considering the need of the surrogate mothers and the need of the desperate couples, I just hope Anand clinic will fully look after the health of these women.
