In our last post we wrote about some of the challenges we’ve been facing with domestic surrogacy and that we’d opened the door to exploring international surrogacy via an agency in Canada.

It’s a marathon, not a sprint
It’s been a while since our last post, so we wanted to update everyone on where we’re currently at. As always, these words are our honest truths…we didn’t call this The Bumpy Road for nothing.
Meeting Mike, Glenn and little Annabelle
As we mentioned a while ago, back in January we signed up for a new support service that Surrogacy Australia is providing called SASS, whereby intended parents (IPs) and surrogates submit profiles independently, with SASS facilitating introductions between the two parties. This is a really significant step for all involved in surrogacy and will hopefully allow for IPs and surrogates to meet each other in a more structured way.
Hitting the road
We’re doing it! We’re hitting the bumpy road to growing our little family.
So what’s happened so far? Plenty.
Dec 2018 – We found a free consultation advertised by a US company, Circle Surrogacy, about international surrogacy for Aus/NZ couples so we figured we’d give it a go. What they offer is pretty amazing, and as we’ve said, no option is off the table and so this one isn’t, but we feel exploring local alternatives to their fullest extent first is optimal. This is for a range of reasons, but predominantly for us, practical and financial ones.
