A member asked:

How can you tell if your surrogate mother has stds?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

OB will test: As long as the surrogate mother goes to a reputable obstetrician, she should have all of the necessary std checks during the pregnancy. Some obs test women twice; once at the beginning and once near delivery. If you are concerned, you can contact your surrogate's OB and ask what their policy is.
