Surrogacy: What is it?
Surrogacy is the carrying of a child for intended parents by a Gestational Carrier (otherwise known as a Surrogate). The pregnancy results from the transfer of an embryo created by in vitro fertilization (IVF), and the resulting child is genetically not related to the surrogate.

How do you find my Surrogate?
We like to consider Surrogate Screening one of our top priorities at Conceptual Options. Not only do Surrogate have to pass through our tough Surrogate Requirements, but they will also talk with a mental health professional. One of our Client Relations Managers will also discuss what level of contact the potential Surrogate applicant is comfortable with, whether she is comfortable with carrying multiple babies or just one, and whether her goals align with yours as the Intended Parents. When it comes to matching you with your potential Surrogate Mother we take into account all of these things, including levels of privacy wanted from all parties, and use our Surrogate Database and one of our expert Client Relations Managers to match you with someone who shares the same goals and preferences as you do. Remember, at this point in this process, no upfront costs have been paid. No costs are paid until you have been matched with your Surrogate, Egg Donor, Sperm Donor, Clinic, and Lawyer, and then a retainer for services is signed. No waiting lists and no up-front fees.
