This week we spoke with Mary, a first time surrogate. Mary’s journey is such a wonderful feel good and happy story. As always there were some bumps, but nothing too crazy or out of the blue. And since Mary is also a doula she does somethings during birth that some may not think to do, but her knowledge and her spirit taught us a lot. 💕 Definitely tune in today to get all the warm and feel goods from this truly beautiful story.

⚠️⚠️⚠️Please be aware that this conversation at times might be a bit graphic. If you are not in the right state to hear this conversation please do what is best and needed for you. 💕 

This week was a hard conversation. We are speaking about pregnacy loss in surrogacy. The ladies in this Friday Facts are kind, brave, and incredibly strong to speak publicly with us and all of you regarding their experience with loss in surrogacy.

Recently we have all been seeing more pregnacy loss in surrogacy than before. Is it happening more often or are ladies speaking up more about it? This is never something any of us think about, even when we read contracts and are explained the possibilities, we tuck it to the side because “that wont happen to me!”

But this conversation isn’t to scare people it’s to help inform others and let them know they are not alone. The ladies in this video talk about the rollercoaster of emotions they each experienced, including isolation. And they all want you to know you are not alone and there is a whole community of women to help and support you in an experience like this.

When tuning in today, please do so with caution as we do speak in a lot of detail. And please know none of us are psychologists or therapists but all of our DMs are open for anyone who needs a friend to speak with.

Our hearts go out to all the Surrogates, their families, and the Intended Parents who have experienced loss. 🤍

Casandra’s Instagram: https://instagram.com/cas_aleman?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

This week we talked with Casandra, a first time surrogate, who has a very unique story. When Casandra was about half way through her pregnancy when she noticed something was different. But she never imagined she would soon be fighting for her life. Casandra was having a normal and healthy pregnancy until some tests were done that indicated she needed to be induced a few weeks early in order to save her life. Casandra was diagnosed with stage 4 Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. But she sits here today with amazing news that she is in remission and clear of any signs. Her story is truly remarkable and inspirational. Casandra you are a true warrior! 💚 

Tune in to hear her amazing story! 

P.S. Casandra we are in true awe of you and we can’t thank you evenough for sharing your story. You are forever in our hearts and thoughts. You are a warrior and we know you’ll continue fighting! 💚

This Friday we are talking about delivery. How does the process of delivering a baby in surrogacy differ from a birth with our keepers? How do surrogates feel having the IPs in the room? And how do we feel when the baby is handed to their parent(s)? 

We also touch a little on after delivery recovery and pumping for our surro babe. Between the 5 of us we have about 9 vastly different deliveries!

If you’ve ever wondered how “a surrogate cane give up a baby” this is the podcast to listen to! 

Tune in to hear their thoughts and emotions when it comes time to deliver their surro babes. 🤍
