Embarking on the surrogacy journey can feel overwhelming for many intended parents. At Alpha Fidelis, we understand the complexity of this path and are here to guide you through each step. This practical guide aims to provide clarity and help you navigate your surrogacy journey with confidence.
Understanding Surrogacy
Surrogacy involves a surrogate carrying a baby for intended parents. There are two main types of surrogacy: gestational and traditional. Gestational surrogates are not genetically related to the child, while traditional surrogates are. Understanding these differences is crucial in determining the right path for you.
Choosing the Right Surrogate
Selecting a surrogate is a significant step in the surrogacy process. Ensure the surrogate aligns with your values and expectations. Here at Alpha Fidelis, we provide thorough screening processes to ensure that all parties are equipped for this journey.
