This is something I have wanted to do for a long time. While I was in the Air Force I had my two daughters and I just loved being pregnant. As a military officer it wasn't really practical (because of the demands of my job) to carry a pregnancy for someone else. When my husband and I got out of the military and he went to law school we were really busy with that and so I continued to put off this idea of helping someone to have a baby by being a surrogate. So now, at this point of my life, I have only a handful of years left to do this (I am 36 and most clinics have a cutoff age of 40), and my life is pretty much ideal for it. I am interested in being part of a team, to help bring the dream of a child come true for people who truly deserve to be parents. I just want to help. I think it is a good thing to do.
I am an energetic, fun, yet practical mother of two. I think I strike a good balance with being adventurous, but still rational, in my parenting and general life decisions. I am a former Air Force Officer (7 years active duty), I am physically fit and really into healthy eating and living. My husband passed away a couple of years ago, and since then I have learned how to be happy even through heartache and hardship. I have found that I am a strong woman, while also being patient and kind to others as they work through this journey of life.
I am just wondering if you are still available?
Hi Catherine, My name is Manya (33) and my husband is Matt (35).We had a daughter via surrogate this past June *** and are looking to complete our family with a second child.Because we are Jewish, working with a Jewish surrogate is very important to us, which is how we found your profile. Matt, Yaffa (our daughter) and I live in Chicago, so Michigan is just a hop, skip and a jump away! We had an amazing first surrogacy experience, so this isn't our first rodeo, and we'd be more than happy to work with someone who's a first-timer and help you have as great an experience as we and our last surrogate did.Our previous surrogate is currently taking a break from surrogacy to add a third child to her own family, but we are in close contact with her and feel endless gratitude for the gift she has given us. If you'd like to talk more to discuss the process, learn more about us, etc., please don't hesitate to reach out. Best, Manya
