Can I have more children of my own after being a surrogate mama?

Right now I'm seriously considering being a surro and I'm in peak condition to do so, but I'm also unsure if I will ever want more children of my own later in life (don't want any more at this point).

If I change my mind in the future about my own kids and want more, is it possible to get pregnant after being a surrogate mama? Does anyone have any experience with this that could offer me some advice?

Thanks!

the reason most agencies won't let you be a soro mom if you still want more children is because every pregnancy comes with a risk of not being able to have more children after it.

Most agencies will not let you become a surrogate if you are unsure if you want anymore children of your own. Once you know for sure that you would be okay if the surrogacy pregnancy is the last pregnancy you would have then you can move forward.
