From the time a surrogate applies an in-depth consultation is scheduled, medical records are requested and reviewed, and background checks and psychological evaluations are performed. It will be approximately 4 to 6 weeks for you to be ready to match with Intended Parents.
First time surrogates will earn $70,000 – $75,000. We believe that transparency is key. Upon your initial outreach you will be provided with a detailed benefit package for your review. A surrogate’s base pay goes up in increments of $10,000 per journey. If you have additional questions regarding our benefit package, please email info@stsurrogacy.com
Yes, compensation is higher for a proven surrogate versus a first-time surrogate. Your base pay increases in increments of $10,000 per journey.
A surrogate gets paid monthly once she is matched, medically cleared and the legal contract is signed with her Intended Parents. There is event driven items paid prior to legal contracts, like a medical evaluation fee.
Surrogates get paid an additional $20,000 for carrying twins.
This is all depending on a person’s pregnancy health. We have had surrogates do 2-5 journeys.
Once the surrogate has completed her medications and is ready, the fertility doctor will perform a FET (frozen embryo transfer). This means the baby will not biologically be yours. An embryo is made from someone else’s egg and sperm source.
Since the surrogate’s eggs are not being used, a woman can become a gestational surrogate even if she has her tubes tied.
All babies, no matter the nature of their conception, have the genetic material provided by their biological parents. Therefore, the surrogate contributes NONE of her genetic material.
