Being a surrogate mother in India
Shabnum Nurmohammed Sheikh is a 26-year-old mother of three daughters, living in the town of Anand in the Western Indian state of Gujarat.
She is currently pregnant again, this time not with her own child, but with a baby she is carrying for wealthy foreigners unable to give birth naturally themselves.
This is Shabnum's second surrogate pregnancy and like many other young women in the area, she believes surrogacy is the only possible route to help her family escape from poverty.
India's lack of red tape and the low cost have made it a popular destination for couples looking for women willing to carry their babies.
In India the industry is said to be worth $500m and the government is now considering tighter regulation.
One of the proposals under consideration is to limit the total number of children a woman can have, including her own, to five.
From the clinic in Gujarat, Shabnum spoke to Jo Fidgen and explained that becoming a surrogate mother was just a straightforward business decision.
