Here is how surrogacy works for gay couples. One of the intended parents usually steps forward in providing the egg or sperm. They then either find an egg / sperm donor for host surrogacy, which is when the surrogate mother has the embryo placed in her uterus, and she then carries the baby until birth. Alternatively, gay couples can pursue traditional surrogacy, when the sperm is artificially inseminated into the surrogate mother who then carries the baby until birth. The Surrogate Direct App is a fantastic place to meet potential surrogate mothers for intended homosexual parents. “
