The surrogate undergoes rigorous medical and psychological evaluations to ensure she is physically and mentally prepared. Tests include blood work, ultrasounds, infectious disease screening, and a review of prior pregnancy history. A background check and lifestyle assessment (e.g., smoking, drug use) are also conducted. Once cleared, she is matched with intended parents based on shared values, expectations (e.g., communication level, pregnancy management), and legal compatibility. Matching may involve interviews or mediated meetings to establish trust.

A surrogacy agreement is drafted by specialized attorneys representing both the surrogate and intended parents. This contract outlines compensation, medical responsibilities, pregnancy risks, termination clauses, parental rights, and contingencies (e.g., multiples, disabilities).

We works with top-tier insurance providers specializing in surrogacy to secure policies that cover prenatal care, delivery, and potential complications, so you’re never left with unexpected medical bills. We also arrange life insurance to protect you and your family, with policies tailored to your needs. From reviewing your existing coverage to handling claims and approvals, we manage the entire process—so you can focus on the rewarding experience of helping intended parents build their family.

The surrogate begins fertility medications (hormones like estrogen and progesterone) to prepare her uterine lining. Meanwhile, the intended parents (or donors) undergo IVF to create embryos. Once ready, the embryo is transferred via a catheter in a quick, non-surgical procedure. A blood test 10–14 days later confirms pregnancy. If successful, she transitions to prenatal care; if not, another transfer may be attempted. Risks include side effects from medications (mood swings, bloating) or failed implantation.

The surrogate attends regular OB-GYN appointments, often with the intended parents involved. She may receive allowances for maternity clothes, travel, and other expenses. Emotional support is crucial—some surrogates struggle with boundaries (e.g., pressure from IPs) or attachment to the baby. Counseling and agency support help navigate these challenges. Clear communication about birth plans (e.g., who attends delivery, breastfeeding preferences) is established early.

Delivery arrangements are made per the contract (e.g., hospital permissions for IPs). In gestational surrogacy, the intended parents are typically listed on the birth certificate immediately (via pre-birth orders in surrogacy-friendly states). In stricter jurisdictions, the surrogate may temporarily be the legal mother until parental rights are transferred post-birth. The baby is released to the IPs upon delivery, and the surrogate’s role concludes as agreed.

The surrogate receives final compensation (if applicable) and postpartum medical care. Physically, recovery mirrors a typical birth (6+ weeks for healing). Emotionally, some surrogates experience "post-surrogacy blues" due to hormonal shifts and separation from the baby. Staying in touch with the family (if desired) can ease this transition. Many surrogates describe the experience as profoundly rewarding despite its challenges.
