Once those dates are decided, we will recruit, screen and prepare a surrogate in the country where you would undertake Surrogacy. And after the pregnancy is confirmed, manage the pregnancy from there on-wards. There a database for the client to choose egg donor from.

I would say it’s a 12–14-month process, including contract signing, selection of egg donor, travel to your surrogacy desitnation and 9 months of pregnancy and paperwork to take the baby back.

You can travel to Surrogacy destination whenever you’d like and freeze your sperm sample, we will then coordinate your Egg Donor’s trip. Obviously the second time around would be to pick up your new born and you must budget for approximately 1-2 months in your Surrogacy destination. 

The doctor would consult with you on that issue, but 3 embryos at the max. But let’s say if you have 4 embryos and then there is no value in freezing 1 embryo… so I guess its situational, but the doctor would discuss this with you.

Our rate is 1 in 10 parents.

We can discuss this with the doctor. We’ll have to implant 3 grade 1 embryos to increase our chances… and we will the accordingly hire a surrogate who is a big sized lady…bottom line is that it can be done.

Once you select the (ED) Egg Donor, then we can move immediately. And later on, approximately 4-5 weeks, this is the minimum time it takes to prepare the surrogate properly.
