Episode 38: Amanda Kinnard-Fuchsgruber’s Surrogacy Journey—A Viewpoint On Independent Matches


Listen Later

Amanda is the Business Manager for Colorado Surrogacy. She lives in Colorado with her husband of ten years and two amazing boys. She is a sign language interpreter and an experienced gestational surrogate and now uses her superpowers to help other people with their surrogacy experiences!
Listen as Amanda shares:
• How her sister’s early diagnosis of cancer at 18 months inspired her to become a surrogate.
• Her friend’s story of loss and how it led her to become her surrogate.
• Their experience doing an independent match without an agency.
• The legal issues they ran into without the help of an agency (i.e. trusting someone when they said the GC and IP could share an attorney).
• The double embryo transfer and the scary situation when she started bleeding early in the pregnancy.
• How she finally found her own legal representation after 20 weeks pregnant to put together the Pre-Birth Order.
• The dramatic birth story and what her relationship with the IPs is like now.
• Her motivation behind working with an agency now to help other surrogates.
