Ημερομηνία προβολής: Μάϊ 15, 2023

It's not every day a mother volunteers to give birth to her daughter's child. But that's the gift 52-year-old Jasmina offered to her daughter Michelle and husband Jono. Incredibly, Jono's sister Sophie, a mother of three, also stepped up to be a surrogate for the couple, who've battled with infertility for years. They resolved to help after Michelle lost a baby boy at 19 weeks, and nearly died during childbirth. Commercial surrogacy is illegal in Australia meaning it's only possible if somebody volunteers. Michelle and Jono, both 31, are now the proud parents of two baby boys, who were born within 6 weeks of each other. They want to share their story in the hope of opening up a conversation about infertility and the trauma that goes with it.
