Can pregnancy be dangerous for life?

Hi, girls! I am Emily. I am 30 years. Three years ago I gave birth to a nice princess and now my husband and I think of having one more child. The problem is that I have congenital malformations of the uterus. My womb is bicorn. In addition, I have a kidney dysfunction and a very narrow pelvis. My first pregnancy was very difficult to carry because of a great number of complications. I have a very good gynecologist. She has done all possible for me to give a successful birth to my little daughter. I am really grateful for what she has done for me!!!! When she heard about our decision of having one more child, she said it would a great risk for my health and even my life. She offers us to try surrogacy. I a little bit stunned by it. What do you think girls?

If your doctor speaks of such grave consequences, I would give surrogacy serious consideration.  You do not want to be gone, you want to raise your little girl.

Hi, Emily! I am Alice. I think your doctor is very reasonable and responsible. You have quite a lot of problems with your health to become pregnant once more! If I was you, I wouldn’t take risks because you have already a husband and a small lovely daughter! Who would take care of them if something bad happens with you? Think everything carefully before doing anything! Moreover, modern medicine has quite a lot to offer you!!!! Why don’t you try surrogacy? The baby will be totally yours but it will be carried by a healthy woman!

I have already thought about surrogacy either and I agree that it will be a nice solution for my problem. The problem is that surrogacy is prohibited in the country where I live so I have to go somewhere abroad and find a surrogacy mother there. In addition, as far as I know it’s not a cheap service. Our family isn’t rich enough to spend much so we need to find a country where surrogacy is both legal and cheap. Of course, I understand that low price doesn’t always mean a good quality so I need to find a clinic that doesn’t take much for its services and provides qualitative medical services at the same time. Can you recommend any one? We have heard about India but it’s too far from us and I have read quite lot negative feedbacks about it. Girls, I really need your help!
Hi, everybody! I am Melissa. India isn’t certainly the best variant. For me, for instance, it’s too exotic country^^^^ A year ago I have passed through a procedure of oocytes donation in Ukraine and I am really pleased with that clinic and the result. My baby daughter is nearly 3 months already and she is totally healthy and resembles me greatly. Joe, are you from EU? If yes, why don’t you try Ukrainian clinics as a variant? I used to get treatment in Russia but the results were zero. Only in Ukraine after several attempts of oocyte donation I really succeeded. You can also give a try to this variant. The prices aren’t too high there and the doctors seem really highly qualified.
