​

In this guide, we're going to dive headfirst into the world of surrogacy.

Now, here's the exciting part: surrogacy is like a rocket ship that's taking off in the world of family-building.

​

With surrogacy, there is a beautiful blend of intense emotions, high-tech medical work (thanks to in vitro fertilization or IVF), and the incredible generosity of surrogates all coming together. Surrogacy now makes up more than 5% of all IVF procedures and srrogates are the real MVPs in the world of family-building.
