Surrogates are actually illegal in the state of Michigan. I don't have any friends willing to do that and even so, we wouldn't be able to pay the medical bills and health insurance wouldn't cover the in vitro or prenatal visits.
Out of country adoptions are usually about the same price but you do have a better chance of getting a younger baby. I don't care what gender or race but I would want a healthy child.
