Becoming a surrogate mother is a gratifying experience. You are helping couples achieve their dream of becoming parents, and you can get compensated. There are around 4,000 surrogacy treatments a year, but finding a surrogate is difficult for most couples.
The information about the surrogacy journey is limited. That is why many questions occur to know more about surrogate pregnancy. One of the most asked questions is, how many times can you be a surrogate?
According to a study by Reproductive Medicine Online, surrogate mothers were satisfied with their experiences. Their psychological health was excellent even after various processes, and the experience was considered positive in the long term.
There are no rules about how many times you can be a gestational carrier. Some women have successfully been in this process more than once, and it has worked perfectly. However, there are some essential things to remember for it to happen. Medical experts recommend that you have no more than five previous pregnancies. It is necessary to listen to your body.
Once you've had a traditional surrogacy process, there's no guarantee that you'll be able to do it again. It depends on how your body responds and what kind of relationship you form with the gestational surrogate.
Also, the American Society For Reproductive Medicine guidelines recommends caution for recurring gestating mothers. The main suggestion is to wait at least six months before considering another pregnancy. This time ensures that your body has had enough time to heal from the previous gestational surrogacy.

How much can I make by being a surrogate mother?
One of the reasons why women may think about becoming surrogate mothers (besides helping the intended parents) is due to the compensation. This monetary help is an essential incentive for a highly gratifying experience. The actual payment we offer may vary, and the base pay can change depending on various factors, including:
The state of residence because many states have strict laws with compensation. These funds will compensate for travel costs, maternity clothes, lost wages, or other expenses during the pregnancy. Some states have regulations regarding these types of payments. In most cases, it is up to the parties involved whether they want additional funds.
The number of babies carried. Regarding compensation packages, some surrogates get paid for carrying multiples or if they deliver twins or triplets.
Experienced surrogates. The mothers who have already gone through the process will have different base compensation.
While most women do not go through this procedure for surrogate compensation, it can still benefit their families significantly.
