Made in the USA Surrogacy Agency in San Mateo CA

Surrogacy for those who live in the San Mateo area

San Mateo is located south of San Francisco as part of the Bay Area. Being so close to IVF clinics such as UCSF, Dr. Aimee and Zouves IVF, intended parents have many options to handle their fertility needs. Likewise, surrogate mothers in the San Mateo area have the opportunity to travel to nearby clinics for their surrogacy process. Living close to a good fertility clinic that gets to the bottom of your infertility is half of the battle. Being close to a surrogate that lives near San Mateo is the more difficult issue.

Gestational surrogacy involves the process of IVF and an embryo transfer. The intended parents donate egg and sperm cells to a fertility clinic. The specialist places those cells in a petri dish where they combine and fertilize to make an embryo. That embryo is then placed inside of the surrogate mother through a process called embryo transfer. Both IVF and embryo transfers are relatively easy procedures. Surrogates can walk in and out of the clinic without needing to stay overnight.

So long as the embryo is taken and accepted by the body, a healthy pregnancy will stem from there. As a surrogate, it’s your job to make choices that will provide a healthy pregnancy for the next nine months. That’s all you need to do, however. As a mother to your own children, you should be no stranger to pregnancy.

At the end of nine months, you’ll give birth and the baby will be delivered to its parents. Throughout this process, you are given compensation for your efforts and service. Surrogacy can be an easy way to make additional income. Yet it also has the added bonus of being fulfilling work. You’re helping a set of parents who would otherwise be unable to have a child of their own.

How do you become a surrogate in Walnut Creek? It all begins with knowing about the surrogacy qualifications of the surrogate agency that you’re interested in joining.

What do we expect from Surrogates who live near San Mateo?

Before you can become a surrogate at a surrogacy agency in California, you have to meet the criteria they have for their surrogates. This is to help promote a healthy pregnancy for both the surrogate mother and the surrogate baby. At our surrogate agency, Made in the USA Surrogacy, we have the following criteria.

You must be a legal resident of the United States or a legal immigrant.

You must have had a successful birth before. It’s alright if you’ve had a miscarriage in the past as well. However, we must have paperwork that proves you’ve had a successful birth. A successful birth describes a pregnancy and birth that didn’t have any complications.

For the health of the surrogate, we ask that our surrogates are between the ages of 23 and 38 with a BMI between 19 and 30. You should also be drug-free, a nonsmoker, and not possess an alcohol addiction.

Our surrogate mothers must also be financially secure.

Finally, we ask that you have a physical and mental evaluation prior to joining our surrogacy agency in California.

Joining the Agency

Once you’ve joined our agency from San Mateo, you’ll be able to access the numerous resources that we offer. Some of those include helping find a surrogate attorney and surrogate health insurance.

The surrogate attorney is important in the initial steps after being matched with the intended parents. To make sure that the process of surrogacy goes smoothly, you’ll sign a surrogate agreement with the intended parents that basically details the birth plan and other aspects of the pregnancy. It’s an agreement that keeps everyone beholden to the details that they discussed.

Before the process of surrogacy can even truly begin, you’ll also need surrogate health insurance. Your current health insurance likely doesn’t cover anything to do with being a surrogate. Even if it seems like it does, most traditional insurance companies don’t know how to determine claims.

Because of that, you’ll need surrogate-specific health insurance. This can be difficult to find even in a surrogate-friendly state like California. We can help you. We have numerous partnerships with insurance companies to help provide you with coverage.

Another aspect of joining our agency is that you are also able to connect with the other surrogate mothers that we have. For first-time surrogates, you likely have a lot of questions that only another surrogate can answer. You can reach out to our experienced surrogates for their advice and tips on how to be the best surrogate possible. They’re also there for emotional support after you’ve given birth to the surrogate baby and throughout the entire process.

Finally, a benefit of joining our agency is that we can help you find intended parents who are legitimate. It can sometimes be dangerous to try and be a freelance surrogate. You may meet intended parents who aren’t concerned about your health as much. Or you might even be scammed. The intended parents may not pay for certain elements of the pregnancy. By using our agency, we provide safety measures to ensure that both the surrogate mother and the intended parents are as safe as possible throughout the experience.
