Why don't you get a surrogate?
I've been asked that question quite a few times, and moreso lately as Jimmy Fallon (who I adore) recently announced that he and his wife struggled with fertility issues for five years and secretly used a gestational carrier (surrogate who gets implanted with the embryo of the couple) to help them finally hold their baby girl. An option being used more widely now and especially with celebrities. He discusses in another video that at first they told people of their treatment plans and then when it didn't work it was so depressing. Yep, I get that.
This short video highlighting Fallon is a good summary of some of the issues involved with surrogacy, e.g. $40-120K, legal issues, custody battles, etc.
