Your gestational surrogacy questions, answered live by a surrogate

The gestational surrogacy questions you’re asking…

…answered by Sarah Campbell, licensed clinical social worker and therapist, and two-time egg and donor two-time surrogate.

Watch as we cover

The before and prepping for surrogacy, including:

• How Sarah decided to become a surrogate and their journey to date.
• The screening process for surrogates, including the assessments involved.
• How surrogates and intended parents connect and build relationships.
• Concerns or fears surrogates may have before starting their journey.
• The tests and checkups that are part of the pregnancy experience for surrogates.

We also chat through all things post-birth, including:

• What delivery was like for our guest, both emotionally and physically, and the rituals or moments that supported the emotional transfer.
• Whether they pumped breast milk for the baby/babies after birth and how they managed it logistically.
• The long-term impact of their surrogacy journey and whether they’ve kept in touch with the family/ies.
