1. The most powerful argument against surrogacy is the fact that baby and mother& #39;s brains are biochemically linked.

Throughout pregnancy, their brains interact through the secretion of hormones.

The brain cells in the baby& #39;s hypothalamus respond to the mother& #39;s metabolism. https://twitter.com/benjamincohen/status/1308394868490854401">https://twitter.com/benjaminc...
2. Even the slightest drop in mother& #39;s blood sugar levels stimulates the baby& #39;s stress axis.

When the baby accounts for around 15% of the mother& #39;s metabolism – its blood sugar levels plummet.

It then senses that it can no longer be supported.
3. The birth process itself is a result of the relay of oxytocin between baby and mother.

There is a very real reason children generally feel more instinctual affinity towards their mothers than they do their fathers – and it is precisely a result of a 9-month neuro-symbiosis.
4. To separate mother and baby at birth? – it cannot be done without negative implications for the psychological growth of the child – and the mother.

To advocate for surrogacy because one feels it is one& #39;s due to have a child? – Narcissism.

Solution? – Adopt.
