Hey, Olivia, I hope you are doing well. You have indeed gone through a lot during your infertility journey. I think you have made a good decision by not trying to conceive naturally. This can be harmful for you and the baby as well. Surrogacy has proven to be quite successful for many infertile couples. It has a 70% chance of success. It is very smart of you that you are researching on this treatment. One should be properly acquainted with the process before they opt for it. Since I myself have decided to go for surrogacy. The clinic I have chosen matches you to a surrogate themselves. This way it is a lot easier for us. The clinic has a criteria which the surrogate has to fulfill in order to become the surrogate mother. The clinic also has a medical test which basically ensures that the surrogate is free of diseases. This ensures her and the baby’s safety. This has made it also made it easier for us as now we know the process will be carried out safely.
