Yes. We believe single mothers are just as capable of being Surrogates as a married woman. If you are single, it is very important that you have some type of support system in place. You should assure it prior to committing to any Surrogate program.
Whether you have insurance or not, the Intended Parents will purchase Surrogate-specific insurance for you. The plan lasts for the duration of your pregnancy. Our accounting department will be handling all medical bills.
If you are uncertain about the laws in your state regarding surrogacy, please fill out an application. Then, you will see for yourself whether you would qualify based on the state you live in. You will get a response instantly after submitting your application.
A gestational surrogate is a woman who carries a pregnancy to term for others, using an IVF embryo created with eggs and sperm from intended parents or donors. She is genetically unrelated to the baby and receives compensation as part of the arrangement .
Your name and your husband/spouse’s name will NOT be on the birth certificate. The Intended Parents will be the ones who will have full parental rights to the baby. Thus, it will be their names that appear on the birth certificate.
Unfortunately, as one of the qualifications, we require Surrogates to be done with breastfeeding for at least one month before beginning the surrogacy process.
Yes. Cycle suppression does not prevent you from being a Surrogate. Our Surrogate case managers will be able to go over the process during your phone interview.
Yes, during your second intake interview of the surrogacy process, we will gather the qualifications criteria. It will help us in finding Intended Parents that match your preferences. Once the Intended Parent(s) reviews your profile and shares an interest in working with you, we will reach out to you and coordinate a call or video chat. After speaking/meeting, both parties will communicate to Physician’s Surrogacy if they wish to work together. Once both parties agree, it will be considered a match.
This is dependent on each case, but typically two weeks to a couple months. The length of the process depends on your preferences in Intended Parents and your responsiveness when they express interest in your profile. After your initial application, we will call you to talk about the surrogacy process and answer any questions you may have. We will then send you our compensation package and other documents to find out. Your intake coordinator can give you a rough estimate based on your profile how long it will take to match you.
It takes usually about 2-6 months until the embryo is transferred. We will bring you in for a medical screening and set up a psychological evaluation. Once you agree to your match, you will enter into the legal contracts phase. Here, you will be provided with your own legal counsel. The clinic will begin a cycle calendar for you and instruct you to begin hormone injections.
The amount of contact varies case by case. Contact is determined by the Surrogate Mother and the Intended Parent(s)’s preferences identified during the matching process. Some cultures are a little more closed off than others; however, the relationship and communication develops as the journey progresses.
During the initial screening process, we will require a background check of anyone over the age of 18 that lives in your household. If you are married, both you and your spouse will need to sign the acceptance agreement. Also, we will be including it in your legal contract. During the medical screening process, your partner/spouse will have to provide a blood and urine sample. Your partner will play a significant role as part of your support team during your surrogacy journey.
Yes, provided that your OB accepts the health insurance utilized for the pregnancy. Together, you and the Intended Parents will decide upon the physician that cares for you during pregnancy. Many Surrogates use the physician that delivered their own children.
Yes! You can still fulfill the qualifications for gestational surrogacy. The process does not use fallopian tubes. Instead, the embryo(s) are placed directly into the Surrogate’s uterus during the embryo transfer phase.
After the first trimester, your physician will release you to your local OB doctor. Your local OB will oversee your medical care for the remainder of your pregnancy. If you need a new OB doctor, then we can provide you with recommendations. You will be able to deliver at a hospital that is local to you.
Surrogacy has the same risks as a regular pregnancy. There are no additional risks with a Surrogate pregnancy. Given that, please consult with your OB to talk about normal pregnancy risks.
Our BMI requirement is 32 but if you are close to it, we are happy to assist with weight loss support. The Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) has established guidelines on Surrogate BMI (below 34) to reduce the risk of complications or Gestational Diabetes. Most IVF centers also have their own BMI requirements, which typically range from 28 – 34.
Gestational Surrogates need to prepare their bodies for the embryo transfer. You will require injections in order to help your uterus accept the embryo. The medical team will help you throughout your injectable period by providing a calendar with a clear timetable and dosages. Generally, you will have to take the injections through the first trimester.
No, the Surrogate Mother does not bear any cost of this process. The Intended Parents will pay for and handle all the medical expenses, Surrogate Mother benefits, legal fees, and travel expenses.
Employed Surrogates may be entitled to lost wages through the state. We realize this may be a factor. So, we have decided to include a stipend for lost wages at the outset. We believe whether you need it or not, the money should be there. Also, we leave it up to you how to best allocate those funds. Should you need to file with the EDD, we leave that to your discretion. Although your compensation package includes lost wages, this does not preclude you from filing directly with EDD for lost wage benefits.
All funds related to your surrogacy will be held in a trust account that is managed by or an experienced escrow company, so that all monies due for your Surrogate fees and reimbursement of related expenses are paid in a timely manner. All financial matters will be handled by the surrogacy agency, removing this component from your relationship with the Intended Parents.
To start referring, please create a profile on our referral program page, get your unique link, and start sharing it with as many women as possible. As a thank you, you’ll receive $1,000 per successful referral.
This compensation structure fosters a groundbreaking concept in which all parties mutually benefit.
Our Surrogates receive more payment with a fixed compensation package than with a line item package.
Surrogates are paid more upfront during the beginning of their journey. In most cases, our Surrogates can earn $4-5k+ even before confirmation of pregnancy (COP).
Less tedious paperwork: we eliminate the need for submitting miscellaneous expenses such as childcare, mileage, pay stubs and instead entrust you with the reimbursement of your expenses.
Straightforward compensation – they know upfront what they will have to pay and can plan accordingly. Takes into consideration the additional expenses incurred such as travel and monitoring expenses in different regions.
To be considered employed, you must have a gross annual income of $15,000. Employment is verified by pay stubs and/or a tax return.
