依赖于父母在其祖国的法律地位，如果夫妇离婚的话事情也将变得麻烦。保罗·博蒙特，一名亚伯丁大学的欧洲与国际私法学教授，『国际代孕安排』（International Surrogacy Arrangements；译注：尚无确切国内译法，译者擅拟）一书的作者，如是说。
"There can be an unfair advantage in a custody dispute. The father will often have parental rights, as the one who supplied the sperm, whereas, more often than not, the egg has been provided by a third party donor... so the mother may not be regarded as the parent of the child," Prof Beaumont says.
“这将成为监护权争夺中的一项不公平优势。父亲常常因为提供精子而获得父权，然而，多半的卵子由第三者提供...所以母亲或许不被认为是孩子的母亲。”博蒙特教授说。
Many experts argue that an international agreement, similar to the Hague Adoption Convention, is needed so that rules are consistent across different countries.
许多专家主张，一项类似于『海牙收养公约』（Hague Adoption Convention；译注：尚无确切国内译法，译者擅拟）的国际协定是必要的，以使不同国家的法规保持一致。
However, this could be difficult since countries are divided in their views of surrogacy.
然而，自各国对代孕的观点出现分歧后，这或将变得困难。
Are there risks for surrogate mothers?
这对代孕母亲有风险吗？
Prof Beaumont argues that regulation is also needed to ensure that "clinics are properly regulated and mothers are adequately compensated, given proper healthcare, and properly consenting".
博蒙特教授认为法规同样需确保“诊所被正确的监管，（代孕）母亲获得充分的补偿、适当的医保和正确的准许。”
Regulation would also ensure that "the intending parents are considered suitable to be parents in their home country", he adds.
法规同样应确保“【预定父母】（intended parents）在其祖国被认为是适合当父母的。”他补充道。
Without regulation, one potential risk for many surrogate mothers is that "if the child is born with some kind of defect, the intending parents could abandon the child", as has been claimed in the Gammy case.
没有法规，对许多代孕母亲来说的一项潜在风险是“如果孩子生来有某些缺陷，【预定父母】（intending parents）或将遗弃孩子。”就像Gammy的案例中报道的那样。
Although it is difficult to get hard evidence of exploitation, it is also possible that, like any potentially lucrative industry, surrogacy could be open to abuse, with women forced to act as surrogate mothers for profiteers, Prof Beaumont says.
虽然难以获得有关剥削的确凿证据，但也不无可能，就像发生在任何潜在有利可图的行业，代孕可能易被滥用，奸商可能强迫妇女做代孕母亲。博蒙特教授说。
My experience with surrogacy: Richard Westoby, author of Our Journey: One Couple's Guide to US Surrogacy
我关于代孕的经验：理查德·韦斯特比，『我们的旅行：一对夫妇去美国代孕的指南』（Our Journey: One Couple's Guide to US Surrogacy；译注：尚无确切国内译法，译者擅拟）一书的作者
We chose to go to the US because my partner is American, and there is a legal framework in place in a lot of states that protects the surrogates, the intended parents, and the child.
我们选择去美国的原因是我的配偶是美国人，而且那里的许多州有一个适当的法律框架来保护代孕妇、【预定父母】（intended parents）和孩子。
All the parties involved had legal representation - our surrogate had her own lawyer represent her when we were negotiating the contract.
所有当事人都有合法代表——我们的代孕妇有自己的律师代表其与我们进行合同商谈。
We spoke about the whole situation - what we were expecting regarding the number of embryos, caesareans, abortion - everything was discussed up front, so everyone was fully informed.
我们谈及所有情况——我们所期望的胚胎数量，剖腹产，流产——所有事情都被预先讨论，所以所有人（对代孕）都有了充分的了解。
It's so important that people have the whole picture before it starts. So many things can and do go wrong if you're not properly counselled and guided through the process.
所有人在（代孕）开始前已知悉概况是如此重要。如果在（代孕）过程中你没有被充分告知并指导，很多事情可能并将出错。
Surrogates don't get a huge amount of money. I think surrogates are phenomenal women going through the process because they want to help other people enrich their lives with family.
代孕妇没有获得巨额金钱。我认为代孕妇们是非凡的女性，她们熬过（代孕）过程是因为她们想帮助他人充实他们的家庭生活。
My partner was in the room when the twins were born. It's the same as when any parent meets their child for the first time - there were lots of tears. It was indescribable.
我的配偶见证了双胞胎的诞生。就如任何其他父母初见他们的宝宝——充满泪水，难以言述。
There's nothing like when your children open their eyes for the first time. It was an incredible feeling.
当你的宝宝初次睁开眼睛的时候是如此与众不同，如此的难以置信。
Our surrogate is part of our life now - we email regularly and she comes to the UK to see the children.
我们的代孕妇现在是我们生活的一部分——我们定期通电邮，并且她也来英国探望宝宝。
