If you are doing Gestational Surrogacy, and going through IVF, you will use the egg of the intended mother or an egg donor.

The situation you are describing is called Traditional Surrogacy, where the surrogate becomes pregnant through Artificial Insemination with the sperm of the intended father.

Traditional surrogacy is very common, and usually much less expensive than Gestational surrogacy.

Hope this helps!
