Application Process to Matching

Your application is reviewed within 1 business day. We may contact you with any additional questions.

Once your application is accepted, we’ll schedule a phone consult where we’ll discuss any questions or concerns.

Next we'll submit paperwork to complete your profile for intended parents for matching.

You can meet the intended parents in person or through video call.

Once Matched, It’s Time for Screening.

We’ll make all your travel arrangements and appointments. Depending on where you’re coming from you may stay overnight. Screening consists of two appointments:

  • a medical screening with our IVF Physician
  • a psychological screening with Fertility Counseling Services

Remember that you will be reimbursed for child care. Clearance should be received within two weeks. Once screening & medical clearance is complete, your match is official.

To be matched with intended parents, a short wait time (about 1-2 weeks for vast majority) occurs. Specific preferences may cause longer wait times, but generally no longer than a month.

After the Positive Pregnancy Test

You will have a pregnancy test about 10 days past transfer.

Around 8 weeks pregnant, you will be transferred to an obstetrician in your area.

Harvest will continue to support you and the intended parents throughout the entire pregnancy and beyond.

Most hospitals are great with surrogacy births. In preparation for the birth we will encourage you and your intended parents to:

  • attend a hospital tour to familiarize yourselves with the facility
  • create a birth plan to make sure the hospital staff know an upcoming surrogate birth

Virtually all intended parents want to be present at the birth and do their absolute best to be there. However, we all know sometimes babies arrive earlier than expected, so be prepared for anything.
