Surrogate evaluation and legal process

Start of meds

This is one of the most exciting times of the process. Your surrogate will begin taking medications to prepare her body for pregnancy as well as endure multiple blood and internal ultrasounds. This is when you will begin paying her monthly retainer fee. After a few short weeks her body should be ready for the implantation of your embryo(s)!! Within 3 days of implantation the transfer fee will be due to your surrogate. As always we will be here for both you and you surrogate throughout this entire process.

HB and release

This can be a very intense time for some parents. It is about 5 weeks from implantation until heartbeat ultrasound. During this time there will be a couple of blood tests to check on the pregnancy’s progression. There really is nothing more amazing than seeing your baby’s heartbeat for the very first time. After confirming a healthy and viable pregnancy, the clinic will release your surrogate into the care of an OB that she has chosen and you have approved. Also at this time your surrogate will begin receiving monthly compensation as stated in your contract.

Pregnancy progresses

At this stage your surrogate will go about life as any other expectant mother. Carrying your precious cargo with the utmost care. Your monthly installments will begin at this time and continue until your baby arrives. There will be regularly scheduled Doctor appointments and routine ultrasounds as well as any recommended testing. You will want to talk with your surrogate about birth plans and hospital arrangements. We are more than happy to provide guidance in this area as well.

Your baby is arriving

As the time draws near for your baby’s delivery you may want to be close to your surrogate so as not to miss this momentous event. We are here to help make travel arrangements, facilitate hotel stays or temporary housing, even entertainment options if necessary. When the big day arrives we will do everything in our power to make sure that everything goes off as smoothly as possible. The moment you hold your baby in your arms for the first time will never be forgotten.

Final Housekeeping

As you are preparing to take your bundle of joy home, there will be a few “housekeeping” items to finalize. The hospital and lawyers will need signatures from all involved parties releasing the baby into your custody. If you are from outside the United States, your lawyer will help to get passports and all necessary paperwork filed so you can all be on your way home.
