Isabel Oakeshott and Surrogacy

One to One

Available for over a year

Political journalist Isabel Oakeshott seriously considered surrogacy in India after having four miscarriages, when trying to have a second child. Although her fifth attempt at having a baby naturally worked, she's always wondered about the route she very nearly took. In this series for One to One, Isabel talks to two mothers who went down the surrogacy road, one in the UK and now in the second of two programmes, to Rekha, who went to India in 2012 to try to have a baby there through surrogacy. Producer: Sara Conkey.
