Melissa’s Birth Story

We met Melissa in the Spring of 2016.  She delivered a beautiful baby girl for her Couple on November 22, 2018.  She has won the award for perseverance!!! There were so many hurdles in the way, but Melissa overcame each one and was never dissuaded from her goal.  If anything, she became more determined! Thank you, Melissa, for hanging in there. Your determination paid off and you have changed your Couple’s lives forever!

The Magic of Video!!

How many times have you heard someone say how amazing technology is? Obviously, the advancements in reproductive technology have made it possible for our Couples to have children with the help of their amazing Surrogate Moms. And with the use of video conferencing apps, the Couple can share the appointments with their Surrogate Mothers. Now they can truly be a part of their baby’s progress firsthand. This is such a gift, especially for our international couples.
