Susan and the Delivering Dreams team went FAR above and beyond for us They are the real deal of what surrogacy agencies should be. They care about the parents and equally care about their surrogates. To sum up an excruciatingly long story, prior to the invasion of Ukraine, Susan and her team helped us transfer to their agency after we’d had a bad experience with a different company. Those months of paperwork, Apostilles,etc etc were saved from requiring a redo because of her work with her ow...

My goal was to establish parenthood in Germany without any legal difficulties. At that time, the USA with its so-called "Prebirth Order" seemed to be the only option, allowing me to be listed as the sole parent on the birth certificate and legitimize motherhood in Germany and worldwide without legal i...

Under Ukrainian law, surrogacy is a legal affordable option for traditionally married couples to have children using their own embryos, or with either an egg or sperm donor. There must be a medical reason you can’t carry a child. You are also able to participate if you have had 4 unsuccessful IVF attempts.
