Guide for two

What to settle before you go ahead

The agreement checklist in Pedigree Resources walks two people through the questions to settle together, and lets you print your answers to take to a lawyer.

• What part each person will play in the child's life.
• How often you see and hear from each other, before and after birth.
• Who covers which real costs. Nobody is paid for sperm, eggs or surrogacy.
• What each person will have checked, and how results are shared.
• How conception will happen. Both people have to be comfortable.
• The story of how they came to be, and who tells it.
• The last checks before anything happens.
