I would say surrogacy through an agency is better. I just feel like it is much safer. I just watched so mnay videos on surrogacy gone bad with independent surrogates. It has made me very cautious. There are numerous agencies around. We are going to go to East Europe for our procedure. I cannot wait for it.
August 29, 2018 at 7:36 pm #6525Dakota QuinnParticipantHey there. How are you? How are things going? I would say both are amazing. However, it depends on your situation and the issues you are facing.
We have opted for surrogacy. The reason is that my husband wants to try this out before we go for adoption. I am the one who has fertility issues. I have fibroids. It makes it difficult for me to carry our child to term. I have had 3 miscarriages because of this. it was a very hard time. We were almost hopeless. When we found out about surrogacy, I was beyond ecstatic. We have even selected the clinic. I cannot wait for this.August 29, 2018 at 7:22 pm #6522Dakota QuinnParticipantYou have touched on such an important topic. I always wonder about this. I am planning on going for surrogacy. So this is something that matters a lot to me. I do not want to do something which might end up hurting someone. I know pregnancy is not an easy thing.
I think this is why we need better laws and regulations. Surrogacy is an amazing option, there is no doubt about this. At the same time, we need to understand where the rights of intended parents and surrogates end. Such situations should be avoided. Surrogates should be taken care of and not treated as a vessel. These women who are willing to carry a baby for others are just amazing. I believe they should not be exploited and they should not be ripped off. It is something they are doing to help themselves. Thank you for sharing this.August 29, 2018 at 7:14 pm #6515Dakota QuinnParticipantThis is terrible. I am so sorry for what you have been through. It is shocking how careless they are. I do not know why they do not respond on time. It would save so mnay this headache. I have read so many negative reviews about L****. These people just do not know how to deal with clients. You should look into other clinics. I know this must be hard. But do not lose hope. There are so many better clinics out there. I really hope you find a good clinic. This is just a bump in the road. It is not the end of the road. Stay strong and positive. Things will work out.
August 29, 2018 at 6:39 pm #6494Dakota QuinnParticipantSurrogacy is a wonderful option. Though I am so sorry for your long journey. I can imagine what you must have been though. I know it is not a good feeling. I have been through the same. But seeing how positive you have been throughout, it is amazing. It is necessary to stay positive and focused on everything. Life is not easy. It does not mean we lose hope. I have heard so many good things about surrogacy. It is amazing that it worked for you. Infertility can be so stressful. Yet you stayed so strong. It is so motivational. Love and best wishes.
August 28, 2018 at 1:06 pm #6272Dakota QuinnParticipantSurrogacy is a wonderful procedure. This is great that you are thinking of it. I am sure you will not regret it. It has helped so mnay. Also, I think it has a good success rate. I am thinking of it myself. In fact, i have even selected the clinic. I just need to go visit them.
August 26, 2018 at 8:19 pm #6129Dakota QuinnParticipantSurrogacy is a blessing. That is what it is. A blessing for all those who cannot conceive naturally, infertile couples, gay men and women, and single men and women. Everyone wants to have a child. It is a dream for so many. No one should have to give up on it. That being said. I am so happy for you. Congratulations on your surrogate getting pregnant. This is such a wonderful post. It has made me hopeful. Maybe we would have twins too. We have not started our journey yet. Byt we have selected this amazing clinic in Europe. I have heard amazing things about it. Hope it works.
August 25, 2018 at 9:30 pm #5984Dakota QuinnParticipantI am sorry about your PCOS. I have fibroids, which makes it difficult for me to carry to term. This is not what I had imagined. I always thought id be able to carry my children myself. But at times things do not work according to the plan. I agree that losing hope is not the way. I am looking into other options like surrogacy myself. My husband has shortlisted a clinic. I cannot wait to go there. Apparently, it is the best at surrogacy.
August 25, 2018 at 9:26 pm #5983Dakota QuinnParticipantI almost opted for this clinic. Reading these reviews make me realize what a mistake I would have made. In the end it I did not contact them. My husband got referred to one. I am sorry for your experience. I hope you are able to find a good clinic. Love and best wishes.
August 22, 2018 at 6:19 pm #5843Dakota QuinnParticipantI went for IVF, it did not work for me. So personally I am not in favor of it. I have been thinking about surrogacy, in fact, my husband brought it up. It seems like the only option left for us now. I have been looking into clinics and there are some that we have shortlisted. I cannot wait to visit them and start our journey. It is going to be a wonderful chapter of our lives.
August 22, 2018 at 5:03 pm #5842Dakota QuinnParticipantThese infertility clinics seem to have lost all empathy. I am frustrated at their continuing poor behavior. I wonder if there is any regulatory authority. They should be reported. Infertility is not something that should be dealt with lightly. It is like any other serious health issue. Thus, it should be taken seriously by these clinics like A*****.
August 20, 2018 at 2:09 pm #5834Dakota QuinnParticipantHey. I understand what you are going through. I wish for the same thing. I do not understand why people keep on telling others to adopt. I would if all other options do not work out. But if I have the option of having my child I would go for that. Even if it means someone else will carry my child.
I was diagnosed with fibroids. At first, we decided to keep on trying despite the consequences. But after 3 failed IVF, we have stopped. We are considering surrogacy now. Though The final decision is dependent on the clinic. We have selected one and will visit it soon. But until then I can just hope for the best, and pray for all like us.August 17, 2018 at 6:25 pm #5741Dakota QuinnParticipantI know how difficult TTC and infertility can be. People become so hopeless and lost. Surrogacy, IVF, and IUI are all amazing options for infertility. They have made it easy to fulfill their dreams. My vote would go for surrogacy. Provided she can afford it. IVF might not be as expensive. But it is a very long and painful journey. It usually requires numerous tries. And even those are not guaranteed. With surrogacy, you have better chances of having a child. However, be cautious about scamming clinics. There are so mnay around. For instance, L**** is one of them. You can find forums filled with sad stories of couples being scammed. I hope your friend gets the help needed. I have opted for surrogacy myself.
August 17, 2018 at 6:20 pm #5740Dakota QuinnParticipantMy Lord. I am so sorry for what you have been through. How are you? It must be so difficult and hard for you. Infertility is such a straining experience. It is not something that should be taken lightly. Do not think of this one bad experience as the end of the road. There are better clinics around. Try looking for them. Even if does take some time. I am sure in the end it will all be worth it. These clinics are more concerned with making money. Which is not surprising. Just stay strong. Love and best wishes.
August 1, 2018 at 5:41 pm #5435Dakota QuinnParticipantHello dear. This is so sad and frustrating. I can only imagine what you might have been through. It is such a poor attitude and behavior. Expecting this from professional clinics is just Annoying. I have been contacting L**** clinic for a week now. I do not know if their email is incorrect, or what. I have not received any reply. It is very disappointing. However, i think it is best you look elsewhere. Time is precious, do not waste it on them. Do not think of this as the last resort. There are so many good clinics around. This is their loss. Stay focused and positive.
