Samantha, American Intended Parent in Marietta, Ohio, USA

Explain your reasons for wanting a surrogate/donor:

We started our journey to parenthood last year. I had to do fertility drugs, and we got pregnant! It was amazing . The day we found out that we were having a son , they also found that I had incompetent cervix and was already dilating, my sons sac was funneling though my cervix . We lost him that next morning at 17 weeks. We tried again after a couple months of healing to have a ectopic pregnancy . Then failed fertility . We were devastated . Trying on our own is just not a possibility due to my I.C. and now tubal and egg quality. We are searching for our angel to make our dreams of having a child finally come true.

Our ideal surrogate would be close by (1-3 hours ) someone who wants to share their journey with us.Where we would be able to come to doctor visits and ultrasounds.We would want contact after birth for our child if possible, but is not a requirement.We will be able to gift *** plus the obvious .Dr appointments , lawyer costs and birth.We already have a trusted surrogate lawyer.
