PROCESS FOR INTENDED PARENTS
FAQ
What is Gestational Surrogacy?
In Gestational Surrogacy, the Intended Parents create embryos by combining the egg from the intended mother (or egg donor) and the sperm from the intended father (or sperm donor). The embryo is then transferred to the surrogate’s uterus via IVF (In Vitro Fertilization). The surrogate has no genetic relation to the child.
What type of Intended Parents do you work with?
We proudly welcome all Intended Parents – regardless of sex, marital status, sexual orientation, nationality or religious beliefs.
Which IVF clinics do you work with?
Second Bloom Surrogacy collaborates with many reputable and highly respected fertility clinics in the United States. We are happy to work with any clinic the Intended Parent(s) select, so long as they can coordinate effectively with our agency.
What is the wait time to be matched with a surrogate?
Please contact us to schedule a free consultation to discuss what your matching timeline may look like.
Can we work with a surrogate we already know or have matched with?
Absolutely! Please contact us to learn how Second Bloom Surrogacy can support your journey and provide assistance at a discounted rate.
Where will our surrogate deliver?
Typically, the surrogate will give birth in the state in which she resides, unless different arrangements are made beforehand and agreed upon by all parties.
How will we become the legal parents of our child?
Depending on the law of the state in which the child is born, Intended Parents may obtain a pre-birth order or judgement establishing their legal parentage. In some states, the Intended Parents must go through a similar process after birth to obtain a post-birth order. In some states, a second-parent or step-parent adoption may be necessary.
When can we return home after the birth of our baby?
Each state differs in how long it takes to receive your baby’s birth certificate and passport (if applicable). International Intended Parents should plan on staying a minimum of two weeks after birth. Expedited passport services are available.
