What surrogates are saying

Surrogacy process, step by step

Start here

Getting to know you

It’s important for us to learn as much about you as we can. We start with an intake application and a getting-to-know-you interview (in person or via video). Our OB/GYN team will request and review your medical records, and we’ll help set up a mental-health evaluation for you and your spouse/partner if applicable.

Matching with parents

Matching like-minded intended parents and gestational surrogates is critical to a successful outcome. We send your profile to potential parents who fit your wish list. We’ll never ask you to compromise on your requests. Video introductions are made, and it is your decision whether to agree to the match.

Medical evaluation

After you agree to match, we set up a medical screening with the IVF doctor. You’ll undergo a saline ultrasound to determine the health of your uterine lining, and an infectious-disease screening for you and your spouse/partner. We coordinate any travel if necessary.

IVF prep and transfer

You start any necessary medications to regulate your cycle and prep for transfer. A mock transfer cycle may be performed to determine the ideal technique for your body. The transfer date is set by the IVF doctor, and the embryo is placed via catheter into your uterus.

Pregnancy

After the first 10–12 weeks you may return to your personal OB/GYN. The intended parents stay in contact and may attend appointments. We meet with you regularly to discuss nutrition and health, and assist with your birth and postpartum plans.

Birth and postpartum

Prior to delivery we serve as your hospital liaison to ensure your plans are in place. After the birth, the intended parents will have their own room with the baby, and we encourage you to introduce the baby to your family and take pictures.

A surrogate and intended parents

Gestational surrogates provide a remarkable service, and it’s important to us that you’re compensated well for it — as well as given the extra attention and advantages that you deserve.

Likewise, we are sensitive to the financial commitment of the intended parents in this journey. Through our 25+ years of navigating the ins and outs of the industry, we have determined what we feel is the most ethical balance between surrogate pay and intended parent costs.
