Be a surrogateHi! My name is Robyn. I'm 35 years old and a native Texan! My husband Rolando and I have been married since 2008, and our son Benjamin completed our family in 2012. Benjamin keeps us busy with karate, soccer, choir, and chess club. We recently rescued two cats and they have brought a lot of laughs into our home.
I initially applied to be a ConceiveAbilities egg donor before switching paths to surrogacy, and I'm so happy I did! Having now been a two-time surrogate, I have so much to be proud of and so many happy memories to look back on. I matched with my first couple in March 2013, we successfully transferred in November, and a healthy boy was delivered in July 2014. It didn't take very long for me to decide on a second journey, and I matched with another family in May 2015. I safely delivered in June 2016. Becoming a surrogate opened my eyes to the realities of infertility that I'd never really been exposed to in my life.
It's been over five years since my surrogacy journey, and I feel like my heart has been telling me to do this one last time for a while now. I'm very hopeful for a third journey!
What could be more rewarding than seeing the look of absolute awe and love on new parents' faces? Not only was I lucky enough to help complete two families, but realizing that you're making parents and grandparents and aunts and uncles... the impact of these journeys is deeper than we initially imagine.
