Angie’s Surrogacy Story

by //

You may recognize this beautiful GC from her first journey two years ago (almost to the day)! On September 10, 2022, at 7:11 pm GC, Angie, and her IPs welcomed a 6lb 10z baby girl.

One word to describe Angie is determined. She is the kind of woman that doesn’t just let life happen to her and makes her own dreams come true. Baby girl was breech and Angie knew she would be able to help her flip and she did! We could not be more impressed with the strength and grace she showed through both surrogacy journeys.

Angie, we are so grateful to have been by your side for another successful surrogacy! We can’t wait to see what else you can accomplish in life!!

Mickayln’s Surrogacy Story

by //

As surrogates, the MOMENT of their journey is most often the delivery room. Seeing their IPs dreams realized before their eyes tends to drive home the gravity of their contribution. As you can imagine, it is a very emotional moment. Now that we are on the other side of the journey, we can tell you that for us, the most powerful part of the journey is the bond our GCs form with their IPs. GC Mickalyn’s bond with her IPs was so rewarding to experience. The two families have truly become one. With her IPs by her side, she welcomed her seven-pound seven-ounce wombmate earthside on August 22, 2022. This birthday is especially magical because it’s National Rainbow Baby Day!

We are so proud to congratulate Mickayln on her successful surrogacy journey and her IPs on their beautiful baby girl!

Lauri-Anne’s Surrogacy Story

Lauri-Anne is a successful surrogate-AGAIN! On August 18, 2022 she made another couple’s dreams come true when together they welcomed a 10lbs 3oz baby boy. No folks, that is not a typo, Lauri-Anne’s surrobabe was over ten pounds! What a trooper she is!

The most amazing part about this journey for Lauri-Anne was the relationship she built with her Intended Parents. Her first journey featured an International couple, but this time they were local to her. Her IPs attended appointments and spent a lot of time with Lauri-Anne throughout her journey. She says for her, they really were a huge source of support in this pregnancy. How beautiful is that?

It’s really interesting as a surrogate, you are often asked about how you’re able to distance yourself from the baby once they are born. But like Lauri-Anne says, it’s really the couple that you miss the most! You miss talking to them regularly and sending them photos and pictures of your life and hearing about theirs. It’s not that it stops when the baby is born, it just changes.

We are so grateful to experience another surrogacy story with Lauri-Anne and she will always be a part of the BFI Family!

BABY! It’s so amazing when it works out for a Gestational Carrier to help shower her Intended Parents. It is such a blessing to be able to meet the friends and family who are anxiously awaiting the baby’s arrival!
