Who can become a surrogate?
Amazing question, we are so glad you asked!
Our clinic requires a surrogate be:
Had at least 1 successful pregnancy without serious complications
Under 42 years old
BMI less than 40
Non-smoker/ drug user
No more than 3 previous c-sections
Not currently breastfeeding
Our hopes
You have a strong support system
Ideally located in Ontario, but open to all of Canada
Allow Steph to attend appointments based on comfort level
Willing to form a lasting relationship with us
Willing to discuss termination, OB/ hospital birth etc with us
And most important - Ready for an adventure of a lifetime!
Here are some helpful resources that we have put together:
