The Surrogacy Process in 7 Steps [How Surrogacy Works]

Surrogacy is the process of another person, known as a gestational carrier, carrying and giving birth to the intended parents’ child. The person carrying the child is known as a surrogate or gestational carrier. 

There are a couple of surrogacy things to consider, such as:

1. The surrogacy process involves a lot of medical and legal steps that a licensed professional, known as a surrogacy specialist, will be able to guide you through.

2. No matter what the reason is for considering surrogacy, the goal at the center of it all is usually the same: having a child that is genetically yours. If this is something that’s important to you, surrogacy could be the right choice for you.

Surrogacy Process [7 Steps]

With gestational surrogacy, embryos are created in a fertility clinic through a process known as IVF. Usually, the intended parents use their own genetic material but sometimes will need to utilize an egg or sperm donor.

During the IVF process, 1-2 embryos are transferred to the gestational carrier’s uterus for her to carry to term. In gestational surrogacy, the surrogate will have no genetic relation to the baby she is carrying.

What Does it Mean to be an Intended Parent?

Surrogacy is a beautiful and exciting journey toward having the family you’ve always dreamed of.

Throughout this journey, you will develop a close bond with your gestational carrier and the surrogacy agency you choose to work with.
