Faith, American Intended Parent in Elk Grove, California, USA

Explain your reasons for wanting a surrogate/donor:

I’m not able to carry after I had a devastating miscarriage in *** (I was on life support, multiple blood transfusions, and surgeries to stop my bleeding) and now my doctors have said I should never carry again due to me having a higher chance of having another placenta abruption.

How would you best describe yourself(s):

Hello! We’re looking for another amazing surrogate for our last baby! We are open to a 1st time surrogate as well as an experienced one. We are located near Sacramento, Ca.We have had 2 wonderful independent surrogate journeys resulting in the births of our 2yo son *** born in Oregon) and 7 month old daughter *** born in Washington).We are open to local surrogates as well as out of state ones. I think Indy is an amazing opportunity to help an infertile couple have a baby, save them thousands in agency fees, and bond better without going through the 2nd party (agency).I feel if your working with intended parents who know the ins/outs of the independent process that it can be just as smooth as if you went through an agency.I know a few wonderful reproductive lawyers for the contract in Ca and familiar with finding out of state ones as well.I have a LCSW here that can preform psychological screenings, and my RE office (Kaiser Reproductive Health) is local in Sacramento, Ca. We have one PGS tested embryo and have a timeline for transfer early in *** (Jan-March).We’d like to have a close relationship during and after the journey but are ok if you don’t.We’d prefer someone who has been Covid vaccinated but are also ok if you don’t want it.Our 2nd surrogate was an anti-vaxer and it worked out perfectly.My husband and I both nurses and of older age (I am 41 and he is 48) so we’d like to have all of our kids sooner than later.
