- Health History: A healthy medical history with successful past pregnancies is crucial. This might involve a consultation with our medical team to assess your physical and mental well-being.
- Emotional Stability: Surrogacy involves emotional commitment. You should be prepared for the physical and emotional journey of carrying a pregnancy for another family.
- Lifestyle: A healthy lifestyle free of smoking, drug use, and excessive alcohol consumption is essential.
- Supportive Network: Having a strong support system of family and friends is important throughout the surrogacy process.
Beyond these core qualifications, we look for compassionate and empathetic women who are passionate about helping others build families.
