61-year-old woman turns Surrogate, gives birth to her gay son's child

A 61-year-old woman named Cecile Eledge has won million of hearts across the world as she acted as surrogate and gave birth to her gay son’s child.

When Matthew Eledge (32) and Elliot Dougherty (29) began considering IVF as an option for conceiving a child two years ago, the couple say they were amused by Eledge’s 61-year-old mother’s offer that she’d happily be their surrogate.

As reported by Daily Mail, Cecil had last given birth in 1989 and had undergone menopause 10 years ago. But she told Matthew and Elliot that she loved being pregnant and would ‘do it again in a heartbeat’.

So, when Matthew shared his mother’s idea with a reproductive endocrinologist, he said there was a good chance of Cecil becoming pregnant again. After a series of tests, the doctors confirmed that Cecile is in remarkable shape to carry a baby for 9 months.

With Cecile identified as a suitable host, Matthew and Elliot were once again blown away by another act of kindness from within their family. This time, it was Elliot’s 26-year-old sister, Lea Yribe, who offered the couple her eggs, having just given birth to her second child.

According to BuzzFeed News, Dougherty and Eledge spent $40,000 on the In Vitro Fertilization procedure, a project that lasted two years before it resulted in their daughter Uma’s birth. Baby Uma Louise Dougherty-Eledge was born without surgical intervention on March 25, 2019.

The day of delivery was beautifully captured by photographer Ariel Panowicz. She later shared the emotional shots on Instagram.
