Monica and Kadie recently met up in Chicago to attend a conference by The Academy of Adoption and Assisted Reproduction Attorneys (AAAA). Monica joined fellow professionals in a panel exploring how attorneys and surrogacy programs can work together to support successful surrogacy journeys.

Understanding & respecting each other's roles is essential to best support families. Because a surrogacy journey involves much more than any one provider. It takes a team.

We're grateful for the opportunity to be part of these conversations, learn from fellow professionals, and continue building relationships that support the people at the heart of every journey!

POV: you’re the surrogate baby with the taco pizzas 🌮 🍕

12 months of milestones, all because someone said yes to carrying someone’s dream!

To every potential surrogate reading this: you don’t just carry a baby. You carry someone’s whole future. If you’re thinking about becoming a surrogate, we’d love to walk you through what the journey really looks like.

Pregnancy & family building are emotional journeys, not just physical ones! Behind every surrogacy journey are people navigating hope, uncertainty, big decisions, & a whole range of emotions. Surrogates, intended parents, & those experiencing infertility all deserve to feel supported along the way.

In honor of the recent World Mental Health Day, our Heartland team is wearing green to show our solidarity & remind everyone that mental health matters at every stage of the family-building journey.

A few ways to prioritize mental health throughout the journey:

💚 Lean on trusted loved ones, support groups, and/or professionals who understand your experience.

💚 Consider therapy before & after delivery. Having support in place can help surrogates & intended parents navigate emotional transitions, relationship changes, & the adjustment to life after a journey.

💚 Give yourself permission to ask for help. You don’t have to do it all alone, & you don’t have to wait until you’re struggling to seek support.

🌿 Support & Resources:

RESOLVE: Resources & community for those navigating infertility & family building. RESOLVE: The National Infertility Association

Black Mamas Matter Alliance Black Mamas Matter Alliance: Advocacy & resources centering Black maternal health. Mamas Matter Alliance

National Maternal Mental Health Hotline (US): Free, confidential, 24/7 support for pregnant & postpartum people. Call or text 1-833-TLC-MAMA (1-833-852-6262). Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA)

Let’s make emotional check-ins, open conversations, & mental health support part of every surrogacy journey.

As Hispanic Heritage Month wraps up, we’re celebrating the Latina-owned roots of Heartland Surrogacy and the families we’ve been lucky to help build.

Hispanic women are 70% more likely to experience infertility, so access, education, and support matter. Gracias for being part of our story💜

Choosing a surrogacy agency? Ask these questions first☝️

Not all surrogacy agencies are built the same, and knowing the right questions to ask can save you time, money, and stress on your journey to parenthood.

These questions reveal how an agency actually operates, not just what they promise on a consultation call.

We answer all of these (plus more, like matching timelines, surrogate screening, and compensation) in our full blog post.

What does a surrogacy case manager do every day? Here's a bts look 👀

Behind every smooth surrogacy journey is a case manager diligently keeping things on track. They are keeping up with appointments, catching red flags before they become real concerns, and making sure intended parents never feel like they're piecing information together on their own.

As an intended parent, you've been through enough...enough decision-making, grief, and overwhelm. The last thing you want to do is battle with health insurance or navigate complex conversations on your own.

Today we're clocking out for the holiday, but there's one kind of labor we never stop thinking about...

To every surrogate carrying someone else's family forward right now, we want you to know that we see the work you're doing. The appointments, the late-night worries, and the body changes may not be glamorous, and they're rarely convenient, but it's some of the most meaningful labor there is.

We also see the labor of love that every intended parent goes through to make this dream a reality. You do the hard work of waiting, hoping, and trusting someone else with something so dear to your heart.

Happy Labor Day to our surrogates and intended parents.

You may know the Heartland team as the women answering your emails, making calls, and supporting you throughout your surrogacy journey...

But we’re more than our inboxes and job titles!

We asked a few members of our team to share their favorite comfort watches, and their answers gave us a fun little glimpse into who they are outside of work.

The people behind Heartland have lives, stories, memories, and comfort shows, too😉

What’s your ultimate comfort watch? 👀
