Mum to my gorgeous twinnies thanks to surrogacy, writer of never ending to do lists and lover of cake!

I love this blog! Amazing lady!

"We are strong women with strong minds, don’t try to tell us that we are not or that we must not." Jess talks feminism and surrogacy in her blog post.

@Law_Commission this says it all! Fantastic view from a surrogate on who should be viewed as the parent(s) and support for your at-birth legal parenthood proposal

[Surrogacy UK @SurrogacyUKorg]

“As a surrogate, it’s important that the children I have given birth to know who I am and the role I played in their lives, but I don’t ever want them to think that I was their mother.” Sarah on why she welcomes proposed changes to Surrogacy law.

Really enjoyed a good discussion on #surrogacy with prof Nick Hopkins from @Law_Commission and @Linder81752995 on @BBCRadioFive. Aired at 12.30pm(ish) this afternoon. Will post catch up link later

[Natalie Smith @natalietsmith1]

A good old cuppa (in my reusable cup) to wake me up to talk about proposals for new surrogacy laws on @BBCr4today. Also listen out for me on @BBCRadioFive this morning and later this afternoon!

[Natalie Smith @natalietsmith1]

Can't wait for today!! See you later xx

[Kirsty Horsey @khorsey]

Excited for my #surrogacy conference tomorrow but also for this judgment which I’ve been waiting for for NEARLY A YEAR! https://t.co/qFqzc0yhi2 Will it make it to new ed if @horseyrackley ?? #surroconf #publicbodyliability

[Natalie Smith @natalietsmith1]

Am going to have to upgrade my Times subscription if they keep writing on surrogacy. Great coverage lately!

Findings published from SUK Working Group on Surrogacy Law Reform show that surrogates call for immediate transfer of parenthood post birth. @khorsey @kentlawschool @surrogacyUKorg @Andrew_powell1 https://t.co/xvCi6hxLaV

James Hall and his wife, Zanna, decided their last hope for a child was surrogacy. He explains how their son was born thanks to the kindness of strangers – and why a change in the law on payment to surrogates would be wrong https://t.co/dIjb7LMjDH

Love this gorgeous team. THIS is Surrogacy and how surrogacy should be #forlovenotmoney

[Surrogacy UK @SurrogacyUKorg]

"The law needs to change: parental orders should be granted at birth. But the introduction of money could be dangerous – altruism must remain surrogacy’s guiding principle." Dad through surrogacy, James, writes for the Times: https://t.co/egmKa99tf9 @Law_Commission @APPGsurrogacy

[Surrogacy UK @SurrogacyUKorg]

"Surrogacy should be a relationship, not a transaction." UK surrogates are speaking out against a move to pay women a fee for carrying someone else's child, says Natalie Smith in the New Scientist. https://t.co/BzGGMTDtau @Law_Commission @APPGsurrogacy #surroref #appgsurrogacy

If you're interested in surrogacy be sure to buy a paper (and some tissues!) today. Lovely insight into what's involved and thoughts on the law and reform @Law_Commission @APPGsurrogacy @khorsey @SurrogacyUKorg @BioNewsUK @Andrew_Powell1 @SarahjSUK

[Surrogacy UK @SurrogacyUKorg]

Read about one of our amazing teams in today’s Times (online and in the magazine). It’s a fantastic read about the teams’ #surrogacy journey.

Warning - it’s a bit of a tear jerker!
