Matching with a wonderful surrogate isn’t always about how fast the match happens! You want a surrogate that is a genuine fit for your preferences and personality. After all, this is the woman that is growing to grow, love and care for your baby over the next year!
There are 4 layers of Match Criteria to consider for an exceptional surrogacy match.
The first layer we consider is whether the potential surrogate is a good medical candidate, and whether your clinic will approve her.
Every clinic has slightly different qualifications, and it is our job to know what your clinic’s requirements are and to show you candidates they are likely to approve.
Because if she isn’t a surrogate your clinic will approve, there is no point in showing you that surrogate.
Surrogacy expectations are the things that get written into your surrogacy legal agreement, so it is important that you and the surrogate have the same expectations. This sets you up for a smooth and calm surrogacy journey.
Some topics to consider:
While this may sound obvious, this is an important consideration! When you are able to connect with and grow a relationship with your surrogate, you are more likely to come to trust her. When you have trust in your surrogate, you will be more likely to feel safe. When you feel safe, you can relax and enjoy the beautiful and sweet way that your family is growing.
These category is preferences you or your surrogate may have that do not genuinely contribute to the success of the story, but they are still preferences.
Some of the considerations that fit into this layer may be:
Certainly getting a baby into your arms is the goal, and HOW that happens really does matter!
We know how tempting it is to hurry this process to make a match happen, but you want more than just a quick match-you want this to be a truly ethical, transparent and heartful experience.
Our 4 layers of matching criteria help us identify which of our surrogate candidates is most likely to make that happen!
