That feeling when you walk out of the IVF center with full medical clearance and you're officially cleared to move forward in your surrogacy journey. This is one of those milestones that makes everything feel real, and it's a moment every surrogate remembers.

So many of our surrogates are working through this part of their journey right now, focused on things like BMI and getting through round after round of blood draws and screenings. We see how much effort goes into this stage, and we are so proud of every one of you.

Surrogates, do you remember how you felt after this appointment? Share your story in the comments.

Crissy is sharing her experience with the saline sonogram as a first-time surrogate. If you have one of these coming up in your own journey, hearing about it from someone who's been through it can make all the difference in knowing what to expect.

We'd love to hear from other surrogates too. If you've had a saline sonogram, how did it go for you? Were you surprised by how easy it was, or was it more uncomfortable than you expected? Let us know in the comments.

Happy anniversary, Amy! πŸŽ‰πŸ€

For four years now, Amy Benes has been one of the steady hearts behind West Coast Surrogacy. With a Master's in mental health counseling and over a decade in the surrogacy world, she brings so much empathy, calm, and care to every single journey she's part of.

After moving to California from Washington State, Amy found a community that felt like home and never looked back. As our Senior Case Manager, she's known for her thoughtful planning, clear communication, and the kind of steady presence that makes surrogates and intended parents feel truly supported.

Outside of work, you'll find Amy spending time with her husband, their teenage daughter, their pets, golfing, taking morning walks, and soaking up time with family and friends.

Amy, thank you for four incredible years. We are so lucky to have you. 🀍

In gestational surrogacy, the embryo is created using the intended parents' or donors' genetic material through IVF. The surrogate carries the pregnancy, but the baby is not genetically related to her.

She isn't giving up anything. She is giving back a baby that was always meant for someone else. She is the safe space, the protector, the guardian of a dream until the parents can hold it in their arms.

It is an act of incredible generosity, not loss. And that distinction is everything.

Debbie, our Senior Case Manager with over a decade of experience, breaks it down in this video. πŸŽ₯

The Florida surrogacy headlines are everywhere, and if you're considering surrogacy, they might feel scary. But here's what you need to know: headlines don't always tell the full story. πŸ‘‡

As California's leading surrogacy agency, we've been watching the Florida case closely. While comments calling surrogacy "modern-day slavery" have created concern, it's important to separate fear from facts.

The reality:
βœ… Surrogacy remains legal in Florida
βœ… This case is still developing
βœ… Modern ethical surrogacy has extensive safeguards
βœ… Laws vary by state - and we know them all

Whether you're in Florida, California, or anywhere else, don't let fear-based headlines derail your family-building dreams. The surrogacy landscape is complex, but that's exactly why working with experienced professionals matters.

We've helped countless intended parents navigate legal uncertainties and build their families safely. Knowledge is power, and you deserve accurate information.

She passed her medical screening and she's on to legal. Crissy we are SO proud of you. πŸŽ‰πŸ€

The medical screening is one of the biggest milestones in the surrogacy journey and a lot of women wonder what it actually involves. So let's talk about it.

Here's what the medical screening process looks like at West Coast Surrogacy:
🩺 A full gynecological exam
🩸 Comprehensive blood work
πŸ“‹ A review of your full OB/GYN and delivery history
🧠 A psychological evaluation to make sure you feel emotionally ready
πŸ’‰ Infectious disease testing
πŸ“ A BMI review β€” at WCS we require a BMI of 31 or below to make sure your body is set up for the healthiest possible pregnancy.

Not quite below 31? We can help you get there! Just ask how.

This isn't about checking boxes. Every single part of this process exists to protect you, your health, and the family you're about to help build.

Passing your medical screening means you're ready. And Crissy is more than ready.

Meet Crissy, a first time surrogate who knew from the beginning that she wanted more than just a pregnancy. She wanted a journey that fit her whole family. 🀍

In this video Crissy opens up about finding the right match, building a genuine relationship with her intended parents, and making sure her own kids could meet the baby at the hospital after birth.

We really wanted to make every part of that happen for her. Because that's what nearly 20 years of doing this has taught us, that every surrogate comes to us with a vision for her journey, and our job is to honor it.

Your vision for your journey matters. You don't have to compromise on what feels right for your family. We will help you get there.

Your husband said WHAT when you told him you wanted to carry a baby that wasn't his? πŸ˜‚πŸ€

Mine said "go for it, I don't care."

And I thought: okay, easy. He's on board.

Little did either of us know how much this journey would change him too.

Because here's the thing about surrogacy that nobody really talks about. It doesn't just move the surrogate. It moves everyone around her. The partners who said "sure, why not" and ended up doing everything in his power to help on delivery day. The families who went in casually and came out forever changed.

My husband went in thinking he wouldn't be that affected.
And then he watched a family, one we had grown so close to, hold their baby for the first time after years of struggle. Years of hoping. Years of wondering if it would ever happen for them.

He cared.
