Ceux d'entre nous qui travaillent ici, au CFC, se surprennent souvent à dire qu'ils ont le meilleur travail du monde !
aider les personnes méritantes à fonder une famille. Mais rien de ce que nous faisons ne serait possible sans l'aide de femmes extraordinaires. Nous savons que nos mères porteuses représentent la crème de la crème, faisant preuve de qualités telles que la compassion, l'empathie et un réel désir d'aider les autres et de rendre la pareille.
Aujourd'hui, nous voulons vous présenter l'une de ces femmes, Lisa.
Lisa est une mère mariée de trois enfants, originaire du Maryland. Elle est en train de terminer son deuxième voyage, en portant un frère ou une sœur pour les mêmes parents intentionnels pour lesquels elle a porté dans le passé - un couple gay fantastique qui correspondait parfaitement à Lisa et à sa famille.
À 38 semaines et plus, Lisa est impatiente d'accueillir ce petit bout de chou dans le monde et d'offrir le cadeau ultime à une autre famille !
Nous avons posé à Lisa quelques questions sur son expérience, et voici ce qu'elle nous a dit :
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, nous sommes tellement reconnaissants que des femmes comme vous existent pour aider à apporter de la joie à d'autres personnes. Du fond du cœur, MERCI ! xo
