Compensation & Benefits
When you become a surrogate, you're compensated for your time, energy, and commitment to help create a family. It's a selfless act that comes with many rewards.
First and foremost, it's important to understand that surrogacy is an incredibly rewarding experience. Not only will you be helping to create a family, but you'll also be forming a special bond with the intended parents. It's a life-changing experience for everyone involved, and one that you'll never forget.
As a surrogate, you'll receive a generous base compensation starting at $55,000 for your time and dedication, with the potential for higher compensation based on your surrogacy experience. In addition to your base compensation, you will also receive additional benefits such as: health insurance, lost wages, household and childcare allowance and bonuses for completing the surrogacy process within a certain timeframe, or for meeting other milestones along the way. Allowances and benefits for both first time and repeat surrogates total up around an additional $10,000 - $30,000. lt is also important to note that the intended parents will cover your medical expenses, lost wages, and all other out-of-pocket costs associated with the surrogacy process.
Most importantly, when you become a surrogate, you'll have the satisfaction of knowing that you've helped to create a family. The gratitude of the intended parents - and the child or children you help to bring into the world - will be a lasting reward.
The Surrogate Process
Becoming a surrogate is a wonderful way to help a family create their dream of becoming parents. The process is very detailed and there are many steps involved, from applying to being a surrogate to delivery.
The first step of the process is to complete an application form. This is to get to know you and your medical history better.
After we've received your application, you will have an initial consultation with our coordinator. This is to make sure that you understand the process and to give you an opportunity to ask any questions.
You will then undergo a series of medical and psychological screenings. This is to make sure that you are physically and mentally ready for the surrogacy process.
Once you have passed the screenings, you will be matched with intended parents. We will try to match you with parents who have similar values and beliefs as you do.
Once you have been matched, you will meet (virtually) with the intended parents to get to know them better. This is to make sure that you are both comfortable with each other.
If everything goes well, you will then sign a surrogacy contract. This contract will outline all of the legal details of the surrogacy process.
Once the contract is signed, you will begin taking fertility drugs to prepare your body for the embryo transfer. Once the embryos are ready, they will be transferred into your uterus. This is done through a simple, outpatient procedure.
Once you become pregnant, you'll carry the baby for the intended parents. This involves regular check-ups and monitoring by your doctor.
The entire process can take anywhere from six months to a year. It's a big commitment, but it's also an incredibly rewarding one.
