Single Father Surrogacy- What All You Need To Know

1. Single Father Surrogacy- What All You Need To Know? If you’re a single father considering surrogacy, there’s a lot to think about.

2. Surrogacy is an amazing option for individuals or couples who would like to become parents, but are unable to conceive a child the traditional way. Through surrogacy, a woman carries and delivers a child that is biologically related either to the intended parent(s) or donor. The journey of surrogacy has three stages: matching with the surrogate, in vitro fertilization (IVF), and pregnancy and delivery. Finding an appropriate match with a surrogate is often one of the most difficult steps, as parties must be comfortable with each other, establish trust and mutual understanding about their roles in the process, and come to agreements about how things will play out.  • Once a prospective mother is chosen, IVF must take place wherein egg cells from either the intended parents or donor are combined with sperm either from the intended fathers or donor in order to form embryos. Lastly, embryos are implanted into the surrogate’s uterus where she carries them until it’s time for delivery after which point the baby is handed over to its legal parent(s). What Is Surrogacy and How Does It Work? 2

3. Why Might a Single Father Opt For Surrogacy over Traditional Adoption Methods? • While adoption can be a great way for single fathers to become parents and provide a loving home for a child, surrogacy is often the preferred choice due to the ability of carrying on genetic lineage. Surrogacy offers single fathers the option of carrying their own child, either through insemination or embryo transfer. • A father has the choice to hire an agency that they trust completely and has the capability to find surrogate mothers that meet their criteria. Additionally, surrogacy grants a parent more rights throughout the process compared with traditional adoptions. Overall, by choosing surrogacy, single fathers are able to greatly increase their chances of having a successful reproductive cycle and create deeply meaningful bonds with their children. 2

4. How Much Does Surrogacy Cost, on Average, and What Are the Associated Risks Involved? • When considering the cost of surrogacy, it’s important to look at both the financial implications and the associated risks involved. On average, surrogacy can cost between $60,000-$200,000. It’s important to note that this number encompasses multiple expenses such as fertility treatments, compensation for the surrogate mother, any attorneys’ fees that may be necessary for forming a legal contract between you and your surrogate, and extensive medical testing throughout the process. • As with any major decision about your health and well-being, there are also certain risks involved with surrogacy that you should take into consideration before making a final decision. These may include potential health issues for the surrogate or child, delays or complications during delivery, and a lengthy behavioral screening process to ensure everyone involved is fit for parenting. Weighing all these factors will help you make an informed decision about whether single father surrogacy is right for you. 2

5. How Do You Go About Finding a Surrogate Mother, and What Kind of Legal Agreements Need to Be in Place Before Starting the Process? • For single fathers interested in surrogacy, the search for a surrogate isn’t always an easy one. Finding someone who is suitable and willing to carry your child is a huge undertaking, and can sometimes take some time. It’s important to understand the kind of legal agreements that need to be made before such a process can begin. It’s important to ensure that all legal responsibilities are clear and that everyone involved, including prospective parents and the surrogate mother, is protected. • It would also be beneficial to spend some time researching different professional agencies, as they help throughout the entire arrangement from screening potential surrogates, to establishing contracts, and even providing counseling and support during every step of the process. 2

6. Once the Child Is Born, What Are the Next Steps for the Single Father and His New Family Unit? • After the arrival of a new baby, the single father’s life is going to change in a big way. Fortunately, he will not have to go through the process alone. A reliable support system is essential in welcoming a little one into the family. There will be many crucial decisions to make over the next few weeks and months to ensure that everything goes smoothly. Above all else, the single father should take his time adjusting to this new responsibility and embrace it. • From setting up regular visits with close relatives and other important people in the child’s life for bonding to finding quality childcare solutions, or even expanding their living space – these are just some of the areas of focus for making sure that both baby and parent will be as content as possible during this transition period. Nonetheless, with a bit of planning and thoughtfulness, establishing a positive family dynamic for everyone involved can be easier than anticipated! 2
