Be a surrogateHi! I'm Kristin! I am a 35 year old wife to an amazing husband and mom to two girls, ages 6 and 4. I am a small business consultant, my husband is a financial advisor, and my kids are involved in dance, gymnastics, soccer, and softball.
I couldn't imagine not being a mother, and if I could help another couple have the child they so badly wanted, I figured why not? My husband and I had already completed our family, so we moved forward with the application process. I was matched with a wonderful couple from my home state, and since I no longer live there, this made our connection special! I had a little girl for them and we still keep in close contact. I am very grateful to ConceiveAbilities for matching me with this amazing family!
If you're considering becoming a surrogate, make sure you and your partner/support system are 100% sure that this is the right time for you. Be prepared for more than a 9 month commitment. My journey started in 2018 and I delivered in 2020. I also pumped afterwards, so all in all, it was about 3 years. It is beyond worth it, but it is a commitment and you will need/want support.
The feeling I experienced is not something you can really describe. Having the ability to help a family grow while having the support that I had from my loved ones is just incredible! The BEST part of the entire journey was seeing the look on the intended parents' faces when their daughter was born. Bringing a life into the world is an amazing feeling.
