Once you have completed the profile and screening process, your information will be provided to potential Intended Parent(s) for their review. Careful consideration is given to your personal preference on what type of Intended Parent(s) you are willing to be matched with. Depending upon the Surrogate and Intended Parent(s) location, a conference call or in person meeting will be scheduled to decide whether both parties are interested in moving forward.

Intended Parent(s) have various criteria, however they are mostly looking for someone who is healthy, lives in a stable and peaceful environment, and has a good support system.

During the fertility treatment cycle, you will take medications both orally and through small injections under the skin. In some instances, you may be required to administer intramuscular injections. Each physician’s office has a different medication protocol. The particular physician’s office that you will be working with will explain in detail your medications, side effects if any, and what will be expected of you.

The doctor’s office together with the Intended Parent(s) will decide how many embryos will be transferred. This will depend on factors, such as, quality of the embryos, age of egg provider (either a donor or the Intended Mother herself), and number of embryos available to transfer. The average number of embryos transferred is from 2 to 4.

For the most part Surrogates feel nothing during the transfer procedure. It is painless and lasts only a few minutes.

You will start receiving a $200 monthly allowance upon passing the physical exam with the doctor’s office. Once a pregnancy is confirmed by the 14 day blood test you will start receiving monthly installments of $2,200 until delivery takes places. The balance, if any, will be due to you upon delivery.

All reasonable and necessary expenses that are incurred during the surrogacy cycle will be paid for by the Intended Parent(s). Examples of these expenses include, but are not limited to; legal fees, psychological evaluation, lost wages, medical appointments/procedures, all medications directly related to the surrogacy cycle, and child care reimbursements. These items and those not listed are covered in your surrogacy contract that is reviewed with the attorney who will represent you.
