Surrogacy Center of Philadelphia

The dilemma of remaining embryos is an unintended consequence of the incredible innovations in Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) and In Vitro Fertilizati...on (IVF). With advances in genetic testing and the increased use of egg and sperm donors, more and more viable embryos are being created and frozen. With now over an estimated one million embryos being cryopreserved around the country, attention to embryo donation is increasing.

Will the baby look like the surrogate mother? -No. Gestational surrogacy means that the surrogate does not have a genetic relationship to the baby. The embryo transferred into her was created via in vitro fertilization with an egg that comes either from the Intended Mother or an egg donor. #surrogacy#surrogatemother#surrobaby#havingtheirbaby#surrogacyphiladelphia#philadelphiasurrogacy#philadelphiasurrogates#surrogacyquestions#gestationalcarrier

Everyone’s favorite question, but many are afraid to ask! Compensation varies by state and agency, but our first time surrogates receive $35,000 base plus additional allowances. An experienced surrogate receives more than $40,000 in base compensation. #Surrogacy #SurrogateCompensation #SurrogateMother... #GestationalCarrier #SurrogatePay #SurrogacyQuestions #PhiladelphiaSurrogates #PhiladelphiaSurrogacy #SurrogacyCenter #SurrogacyAgency #SurrogacyCenterOfPhiladelphia See more

There are two main types of surrogacy: traditional and gestational. At the Surrogacy Center of Philadelphia, we specialize in Gestational Surrogacy, and feel it’s important to understand the difference between the two. On our blog, Director Andrea breaks it all down.

On our blog now! As a Surrogate Ambassador, I share my Surrogacy story with many people who are surprised to hear that I had a lot of say in my journey. Yes, we are carrying someone else’s baby, but we still have a choice in what we do with our bodies. Read the full post: https://www.philadelphiasurrogates.com/my-surrogacy-story/

"Now that I'm on the other side, I wouldn't have had it any other way," Wiig says. "I've always believed that things happen the way they're supposed to happen, and this is how [our babies] were supposed to get here. I became really close with our surrogate, and it was her first time doing it so we kind of went through everything together. When the children were born, I wanted to make sure she was okay and she wanted to make sure I was okay."
