Woman gives birth to own grandchildren (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/brazil_surrogate_grandmother;_ylt=AsK1TbL8yD0OuFAkC4HnNLnq188F)

SAO PAULO, Brazil - A 51-year-old surrogate mother for her daughter has given birth to her own twin grandchildren in northeastern Brazil, the delivery hospital said.
 
Rosinete Palmeira Serrao, a government health worker, gave birth to twin boys by Caesarean section on Thursday at the Santa Joana Hospital in the city of Recife, the hospital said in a statement on its Web site.

Hospital officials were not available for comment on Sunday, but press reports said the grandmother and twins were discharged on Saturday in excellent health. The Caesarean section was performed about two weeks ahead of time because Serrao was having trouble sleeping, the statement said.

Serrao decided to serve as a surrogate mother after four years of failed attempts at pregnancy by her 27-year-old daughter, Claudia Michelle de Brito.

Brazilian law stipulates that only close relatives can serve as surrogate mothers. De Brito is an only child and none of her cousins volunteered, so Serrao agreed to receive four embryos from her daughter.

I though surrogae moms, only act or become pregnant for the purpose of gestating and giving birth to a child for others to raise.
I doubt that the said Grand Mother had sex with her son-Law.
I beleie she was implanted with the fertilized egg (gestational surrogacy).

Lets Hope she don't get to comfy and not give up the kids to her Daughter... ;D

Well, technically it's not her daughter... This is an odd situation, but like Es-jay said I don't think this is wrong because her daughter couldn't bare children.

^how is it? the daughters egg has been fertilised by the son-in-laws sperm then it is genetically their child. the daughter's mother carried the embryos so that the 2 could actually have a child.

if you read the last sentence of the article "Brazilian law stipulates that only close relatives can serve as surrogate mothers. De Brito is an only child and none of her cousins volunteered, so Serrao agreed to receive four embryos from her daughter."

what other choice did she have other than to let her mother do it?

She's the person who birthed the babies, but she's not the person who created them, so in all reality she is not the mother. She is just the person who carried them and birthed them. It was her daughers eggs, not her own.

2.   an animal that is given another's offspring to raise.
3.   Medicine/Medical. a woman who helps a couple to have a child by carrying to term an embryo conceived by the couple and transferred to her uterus, or by being inseminated with the man's sperm and either donating the embryo for transfer to the woman's uterus or carrying it to term.

LMAO @ NIK mad at me for voicing my opinion. Lets just say a white family has a black woman be the surrogate mother. She gives birth to a white baby, its obvious who's mother the baby is correct? While in all technicalities, the black woman birthed the baby, she is not the mother. The baby will have none of her dna. Will never resemble her or any family members. etc etc. She is NOT the mother. She is the woman who gave birth to the baby. This is true.

Seriously guy, you're mistaken here. You're right she is the mother, but the correct term for her is Surrogate Mother. The Biological mother is the woman whom the eggs were derived from.

who is raising the child? whos DNA is in the child? she is a SURROGATE mother, nothing more, nothing less. well, apart from being a grandmother aswell.

you dont need to continuely argue the point, it is a common thing for a surrogate to carry the embryo for the term then hand the child to the rightful mother.

the fact that the baby will have the DNA from the father and the REAL mother makes it clear who is the mother of the child, it doesnt matter who gave birth to it. she housed an embryo for 9months and gave birth to it, that does not make her the mother...

let it go man, your wrong. accept it.

And? Foster parents are temporary parents until adoption, just as a surrogate mother is just a way to bring the child into this world, but the real mother is the woman's daughter. If everyone thought it was all good to just call the woman the mother, why would anyone even bother coming up with the word surrogate? Obviously there is a difference, and the word was created to make that point.

You are trying to corrilate me being adopted with something completely seperate. The woman couldn't have children used her egg and her husband's sperm to create an embryo. At that point, that makes them the biological parents. Biology is what you are made up of. The kid isn't from the grandmother's DNA, therefore she isn't the biological mother.

My life as a surrogate mother
By Jo Carlowe
She's had eight children and given three of them away. Here she tells gomamatoday her story, very matter-of-factly...

Lorraine Reid, 39, is married and her own children are aged between six and 17.

How and why did you become a surrogate?
- I read about surrogacy when I was pregnant with my fourth child. I liked being pregnant and wanted to help childless couples so I got in touch with COTS (the UK's surrogacy organisation).The first couple had been trying for a baby for 10 years. The procedure was straightforward. I inseminated myself with a syringe. The sperm came from the husband and I provided the egg. The mother lived nearby so she came round when I did the pregnancy test. When she saw it was positive she was hysterical – laughing and crying.

So you are the biological mother?
 - Yes, of both the first and second surrogate children, but the third [born in September 2006] involved an embryo transfer from the mother. So she is the biological mother.

I have biological parents I have never met before. I was in foster care until I was 3 months old, then my real parents got me. That is why they are my REAL parents. They raised me and love me. They are not my biological parents because I am not from their DNA. I know exactly what biological parents are. Being adopted and having a surrogate mother are two completely different things.

Now let's look up "assisted conception":

• Surrogacy: another woman carries your embryo, or a donor embryo, to term and gives the baby to you after birth.

More recently, sophisticated assisted conception treatments have made it possible for a surrogate to carry a baby that is completely the biological child of the infertile couple. This is achieved by using an embryo conceived through in vitro fertilisation (IVF) or a similar method, and is known as partial, gestational, or host IVF surrogacy. It is also possible for a surrogate to carry a donated embryo to term.

^^I refuse to believe that growing and developing in someone doesn't have an affect on who you are. Keep reading them definitions, bro.

Definition and Types of Surrogacy
by: Jenn Z.

A surrogate mother is a woman who carries a child for someone else, usually an infertile couple. There are two different types of surrogacy. They are traditional surrogacy and gestational surrogacy. Explanations for both types can be found below.
 
Traditional Surrogacy

In traditional surrogacy, the surrogate mother is artificially inseminated with the sperm of the intended father or sperm donor. The surrogate's own egg will be used, thus she will be the genetic mother of the resulting child.

Usually, the intended father's name is put directly on the birth certificate and the intended mother will need to do a step-parent adoption, however, laws regarding this issue vary from state to state. Consult a lawyer who is knowledgable about surrogacy laws in your state to learn more.

Gestational Surrogacy (NIK: This what took place in this case with the grandmother and her daughter)

In a gestational surrogacy, the surrogate mother is not genetically related to the child. Eggs are extracted from the intended mother or egg donor and mixed with sperm from the intended father or sperm donor in vitro. The embryos are then transferred into the surrogate's uterus. Embryos which are not transferred may be frozen and used for transfer at a later time if the first transfer does not result in pregnancy.

In many areas, the intended parents may petition the court during the third trimester of pregnancy to have both of their names placed directly on the birth certificate, however, laws regarding this issue vary from state to state. Consult a lawyer who is knowledgable about surrogacy laws in your state to learn more.

Are you saying ALL of these sources are wrong? What you're looking up is a specific definition. But its not pertaining to this specific case. In this case, birthing the child does NOT constitute the woman as the mother. The only stubborn one here is YOU. You're mistaken in this case.

I stand corrected...But it's still hard for me to believe that having a fetus grow in you for 9 months and birthing that fetus doesn't give you any mother credentials.. ...I'd imagine that the baby gets a lot from the person it develops in...I bet this is controversial.

Ummm I'm not sure what growing in a womans stomach does for a baby. I guess that MIGHT be a possibility. But I wouldn't know exactly how... I'm sure the DNA from the biological parents would have the most, if not all, of the influence on the baby.

In human reproduction, only a sperm and an egg shell determine your genetic inheritance, nothing else. A fertilized egg shell has the needed genetic information to build a new individual, it needs only oxygen and nutriment to develop. In uterus, a fetus, and its previous forms, gets oxygen and nutriment through a biblical cord. Oxygen and nutriment are environmental factors, which right amount determine how healthy is the baby to be born. They have no affect on what kind of colour your hair is to be etc.

I hope this helps.

I was wrong to say that birthing a child of someone else makes you the sole biological parent (I don't even know if I really said that, though), but I refuse to believe that growing/developing in someone has no affect on the fetus. What you feed it, the moods you're in, the way you're built, etc... all that factors in with the development of the baby, making the carrier the mother in some way, at least. It's not a simple topic, this isn't even incorporated into definitions, since "surrogate mother", as we know it, is something completely different...PeACe
