Surrogacy successful stories?

[Lilly08]

Hi everyone,

I'm posting again about this topic.. I just got into the surrogacy world and I would like to know your successful stories...either as surrogate mothers or as IP..

I haven't found a group to discuss about this with others. Would be great to find other women who are going through the same.

Would love to know about your experiences.

Thanks x

Hi Lilly, I'm also interested in such stories. Will be grateful for any experience, too. There were some threads about surrogacy in some communities on this website, but it was quite a long time ago. If you have time, you may search for them, but I'm sure that ladies will post their stories here too. I am in the process of gathering info about surrogacy and clinics that provide such service. So far I've heard a couple of successful stories about surrogacy done in Biotexcom, Ukraine. On the other hand, stories about India were not so positive.

Anyway, thank you for starting this conversation! I hope it will have lots of useful information.

Hi Lilly! Hope you doing fine. I am very excited when I come to know that there are other people who are also thinking positively. Yes, I can share my own story with you. I had gone through 6 MCs and after that, my condition was too bad. But I still had a wish to have a baby. My doctor suggested me to go for surrogacy as an alternative. She also suggested a clinic in Europe for the procedure done. I contacted them without any fear and doubt. Now I have a baby and a happy cherished life. I wish you good luck!

Thanks for sharing your story with us. Dh and I passed surrogacy in Ukraine. And know what,we hadn’t seen this kind of all-inclusive plan anywhere else! The best part about it is that they guarantee you a baby. Meaning if the first surrogate doesn’t work out, they will try again with another using your frozen embryos until they are successful. We have encountered other couples who chose Ukraine purely for the guarantee factor of a baby. This might sound strange to some, but for us, it was the blessing. Also, it seems like Ukraine is one of the few places where the laws favor the intended parents rather than the surrogate. Under its law, the baby is ours from the moment of conception. Once the baby is born, the birth certificate is issued with our names, and the surrogate cannot claim any rights. Lastly, we could rest with the thought that time-wise, pregnancy could start right after embryos are created. Everyone that we had spoken to had been successful with the first try, if not the second. That was very appealing to us. One additional fact that we also liked is that we could pay the surrogate directly. We also came across Shabana’s blog, a sweet woman in the UK, who was already going through the process with BTC. She was able to answer all of our questions. If you do end up being interested in using this particular clinic, I’d highly recommend contacting her as she also has a network of folks all around the world who are pursuing surrogacy in Ukraine, which ended up being extremely helpful.
