The Surrogacy Podcast Epsiode 5: Rhiannon. Rhiannon’s brother is lucky enough to have his own sister as his surrogate to help him grow his family. In this episode you’ll hear from the Rhiannon, who was a gestational surrogate for her brother and his partner not once, but twice – and is planning on doing it a third time!
Listen to how Rhiannon took her Aunty duties to a whole new level, all the while single parenting her own three kids and with the support of her interstate intended parents. What’s it like being the sister to the intended parents, and being a surrogate for your sibling? How amazing is it to be the very special aunty to the babies you grew?
