Understanding the Surrogacy Process: What to Expect

Introduction

If you’ve ever considered helping a family through surrogacy, you may be wondering what the journey actually looks like. Surrogacy is a multi-step process that combines medical science, legal agreements, and deep personal connection. At Surrogacy4All, we guide each surrogate through every step of the process with care and transparency.

Step-by-Step Surrogacy Journey

1. Application and Screening

Submit your online application and participate in a preliminary screening to verify eligibility.

2. Initial Interview and Consultation

You’ll have a phone or video call with our intake coordinator to discuss your motivations and background.

3. Medical and Psychological Evaluations

You’ll visit an IVF clinic for blood work, ultrasounds, and psychological assessment with a licensed counselor.

4. Legal Contract

Both you and the Intended Parents will receive independent legal counsel and sign a contract that outlines responsibilities and protections.

5. Embryo Transfer Cycle

You’ll undergo a cycle preparation phase with medications to prepare your uterus for embryo transfer.

6. Pregnancy Monitoring

After a successful transfer, you’ll visit the clinic for blood tests and ultrasounds to confirm and monitor pregnancy.

7. Regular OB Appointments

Once released from the IVF clinic, you’ll see a local OB for prenatal care and regular checkups.

8. Delivery and Support

You’ll deliver the baby at a hospital. The Intended Parents are usually present for the birth. You’ll receive recovery and emotional support.

Support Throughout the Journey

Surrogacy4All provides personal case managers, medical liaisons, and emotional counselors to ensure your journey is smooth. You’ll also receive compensation for your time, lost wages, travel, and maternity care, totaling $45,000–$85,000.
