A Canadian surrogate says she is facing a CAD$600,000 (£300,000) lawsuit after refusing to terminate a pregnancy when the intended parents allegedly requested an abortion following the discovery that the baby had a cleft lip. The surrogate claims the same-sex couple wanted the 'perfect baby', an allegation the parents deny.
Instead, the Ontario couple allege the surrogate breached their surrogacy agreement, failed to keep them informed about the pregnancy and made medical decisions that placed their son at risk. The surrogate denies those claims.
