She Kicked Her Surrogate Out Of Her House For Making Her And Her Husband Uncomfortable After Their Baby Was Born
Many people who choose to have a baby through surrogacy keep in touch with their surrogates and have a great bond with them.
However, it is a very delicate relationship, and if some parents want to keep their distance, that’s totally valid.
A woman recently snapped at her and her husband’s surrogate after she continually showed up to their house after giving birth to their son and referred to herself as his mother.
She and her husband, Jack, knew they’d have to have a baby in a slightly less conventional way, as when she was a teenager, she was injured in an accident, which left her unable to have children naturally.
After weighing their options, they decided to go the surrogacy route and use an agency so they wouldn’t have to deal with any repercussions of asking someone they knew to carry their child.
Unfortunately, they had to deal with repercussions anyway.
She and Jack were paired with a surrogate named Jess, who was super sweet and kind throughout the entire process. It didn’t take long for Jess to become pregnant with their son.
However, everything changed after their son, who they named Owen, was born.
“Once she heard the name, she sort of made a face, but we brushed it off,” she recalled.

“Then she came over to our house the day after we [took] Owen home, and then she came over every day and stayed for hours. She’d always try to take him out of our arms.”
In addition to constantly inviting herself over to see and hold Owen, Jess would start chiming in and voicing her opinion regarding their parenting techniques, making her and Jack uncomfortable.
She and Jack finally snapped when one day, Jess was over at their house the second week in a row and picked up Owen, saying, “Come to Mama.”
“I yelled that she wasn’t his mom and that she is no longer welcome in my home,” she said.
“She then sent me a bunch of angry texts claiming I was so ungrateful.”
Was she wrong to snap at her surrogate, or did the surrogate cross the line?
