The act has two alternatives: the state can choose to declare all such agreements void, or the act provides detailed guideline for valid surrogacy agreements if the state wishes to permit them. North Dakota has adopted the view that these agreements are void and the birth mother is the legal mother of any child she bears. Other states permit these agreements but require them to meet certain guidelines. An example of a guideline would be that the intended couple must be heterosexual, married and the woman must medically be unable to conceive or be unable to conceive without unreasonable risk to the mother or child."}
