Surrogacy is an incredible option for those who cannot carry a child on their own, and understanding the process can help alleviate concerns and provide clarity. At iBoyer, we are committed to helping you navigate your surrogacy journey with ease. Below is a step-by-step guide to understanding how the surrogacy process works.
1. Initial Consultation and Matching
The journey begins with a consultation to discuss your unique needs and expectations. Afterward, intended parents are matched with a surrogate based on mutual preferences and legal requirements. The matching process ensures compatibility and fosters a strong relationship between both parties.
2. Legal Agreements
Once a match is made, legal contracts are established to protect the rights of both the intended parents and the surrogate. Each party will have independent legal representation to ensure that the agreement is transparent and fair. This stage ensures that the surrogacy is legally valid and safeguards the future of the child.
3. Medical Screening and Embryo Transfer
The surrogate will undergo medical screening to ensure she is in good health. Once cleared, the IVF process begins. Eggs are retrieved from the intended mother or a donor, fertilized with sperm, and the resulting embryo is transferred to the surrogate.
4. Pregnancy and Support
After the embryo transfer, the surrogate is carefully monitored throughout her pregnancy. The intended parents are kept informed every step of the way, and the surrogate receives emotional and medical support during this exciting time.
5. Birth and Parental Rights
Upon the baby’s birth, the legal agreements ensure that the intended parents are recognized as the child’s legal guardians. The surrogate, who selflessly carried the child, transfers custody to the parents, fulfilling the surrogacy agreement.
