Los que trabajamos en el CFC solemos decir que tenemos el mejor trabajo del mundo.
ayudar a personas que lo merecen a construir familias. Pero nada de lo que hacemos sería posible sin la ayuda de algunas mujeres increíbles. Sabemos que nuestras madres de alquiler gestacionales representan lo mejor de lo mejor, con cualidades como la compasión, la empatía y un verdadero deseo de ayudar a los demás y devolverles lo que han recibido.
Hoy queremos presentarles a una de estas mujeres: Lisa.
Lisa está casada y es madre de tres hijos, natural de Maryland. Actualmente está terminando su segundo viaje, esperando un hermano para los mismos padres a los que esperaba en el pasado: una fantástica pareja gay que encajaba a la perfección con Lisa y su familia.
Con 38 semanas y contando, Lisa está deseando dar la bienvenida al mundo a este pequeño bebé y hacer el regalo definitivo a otra familia.
Le hicimos a Lisa algunas preguntas sobre su experiencia, y esto es lo que nos contó:
What led you to surrogacy?
The idea of surrogacy has always been a part of me. After watching friends and family go through infertility I knew surrogacy was something I wanted to pursue.
How did you choose CFC as your agency?
I liked the idea of working with an agency close to me. I then researched agencies and read every review I could find. I asked questions to other surrogates who had worked with CFC. After talking with representatives with CFC I knew it was a good fit.
What was the matching and screening process like?
As soon as my husband and I meet with our IFs we knew it was a great fit. They were so warm, kind, and easy to speak with. We shared all the important views and expectations going into the surrogacy. CFC made sure we spoke openly about these things to ensure we all felt comfortable. They also led us through the screening each step of the way.
What has this pregnancy been like?
This is journey two for the same couple. The first was a nice, uneventful pregnancy. The dads were able to be there for the birth which was so wonderful. So far (38 weeks!) This pregnancy has been going well. We are getting excited as the due date gets closer.
What was it like seeing the Dads hold their baby for the first time?
Seeing my IFs become dads is one of the best, most heartwarming experiences of my life. It was such a joy and honor to be a part of someone else’s journey to parenthood. To see them look into their child’s eyes is a moment I will never forget.
What can you tell other women considering a surrogacy journey with CFC?
Becoming a surrogate has been such a rewarding experience. It is a journey not just for me , but my husband and children as well. We’ve shared in the love and excitement of growing a family. I enjoyed working with CFC – they were always there to support me, answer questions, and check in to make sure I was doing well!
Lisa, estamos muy agradecidos de que existan mujeres como tú para ayudar a llevar alegría a otras personas. Desde el fondo de nuestros corazones, ¡GRACIAS! xo
