Georgie Crawford, a podcaster, and her husband Jamie welcomed their second daughter, Tahlie, through surrogacy in late 2023. Now 16 months old, Tahlie is a cherished addition to their family. Georgie expresses immense gratitude for her daughter, calling her a 'miracle baby.' She shares that the bond with Tahlie was immediate and effortless, despite initial anxieties about the surrogacy process.
Georgie acknowledges the trust placed in their surrogate mother, emphasizing the importance of ethical and legal practices throughout their journey. \Georgie also reflects on her experience of natural pregnancy with their first daughter, Pia, who is seven years older than Tahlie. She describes feeling fortunate to have undergone that journey and believes the surrogacy process was equally significant. The couple's decision to pursue surrogacy stemmed from Georgie's breast cancer diagnosis in 2017. \Their initial contact with a surrogacy agency in Ukraine was disrupted by the war, forcing them to seek an alternative. They eventually found a loving connection with an agency in Tbilisi, Georgia, where they spent a month and fell in love with the city. Georgie hopes to return with Tahlie when she is older to connect her with her birthplace. \To raise awareness about breast cancer, Georgie is supporting a new campaign with SPAR, partnering with the National Breast Cancer Research Institute. The campaign utilizes eye-catching labels on products with QR codes that link to mobile phone reminders for regular self-checks. Georgie sees this campaign as vital in saving lives and emphasizes the importance of younger women being proactive about breast cancer screening. She recalls her own diagnosis at 32, highlighting the need for open discussions about breast cancer across all demographics
