Baby M(1988)

A TRUE STORY.

Baby M is a drama series that follows a childless couple who hire a surrogate to carry their first child. What begins as a hopeful arrangement spirals into a legal and emotional nightmare that reshapes surrogacy law. Based on one of America's most notorious custody battles, the series explores the collision between parental longing, contractual obligation, and a woman's right to her own body. As the surrogate becomes increasingly attached to the child she's carrying, the couple's dream of parenthood transforms into a courtroom battle with far-reaching consequences. Baby M examines the human cost of reproductive contracts and the murky legal territory that existed before modern surrogacy protections were established.
