Who Are the Surrogates?

Our surrogates in the USA are recruited from all around the USA and are typically American citizens living in different cities. Many of them are between their late 20s and mid-30s. Most commonly they are stay at home moms with one or two children.

Why does a woman wish to be a surrogate mother?

There are several reasons why a woman in the USA might choose to become a surrogate mother. It is important to remember that every individual’s motivations are unique, and a combination of factors might influence their decision. Some common reasons include:

Altruistic Surrogacy
Many surrogate mothers genuinely want to help others who are unable to conceive or carry a baby themselves. People may have a close relationship to fertility and medical issues. This can draw them to help those going through similar experiences. Alternatively, they may just feel the need to help.
Commercial Surrogacy
Surrogacy can be a financially rewarding process. Surrogate mothers in the USA often choose commercial surrogacy. They receive payment for their work, as well as the potential medical risks of pregnancy and childbirth. For some women, this can be an attractive reason to become a surrogate.
Emotional Satisfaction
For some women, the experience of pregnancy and childbirth can be emotionally fulfilling. They may have enjoyed their own pregnancies and wish to relive the experience by helping others achieve their dream of parenthood.
Personal Growth
Becoming a surrogate mother can be a transformative and empowering experience. Some women may choose to become surrogates to challenge themselves or to grow personally.
Building Relationships:
Surrogacy can lead to strong and lasting connections between the surrogate and the intended parents. Some surrogates value the chance to establish new relationships and become part of a support network for the intended parents.

Some women may have experienced generosity in their own lives. As a result, they decide to become surrogates so they can give back to those in need. Some women may be motivated to help others build a family through surrogacy due to their religious or community beliefs. This could be because of their cultural values. A woman’s motivations for becoming a surrogate mother can be complex and multi-faceted. It is important to note that this list is not exhaustive. The decision to become a surrogate is deeply personal and individual.

What is the Surrogate Mother Selection Process?

Candidates must pass a long and thorough screening process to be accepted into the program. They must also have had at least one healthy baby from a successful pregnancy. They are flown to the selected IVF Center for embryo transfer.

However, during the pregnancy, they live at home with their families and maintain their usual lifestyles. During the first trimester, the IVF Center physician monitors the pregnancies.

After the first trimester, our surrogates are monitored by their personal gynecologist physicians near their homes. Throughout the pregnancy, surrogates undergo routine pregnancy tests. They also have regular blood tests to make sure they are healthy. These tests ensure the pregnancy is progressing without any issues.
