hi. Wanted to intro myself. I am 26 and a post 4 yr transplant recipient. Due to health issues can't risk becoming pregnant. We chose surrogacy first after the heartbreak went down. Able to freeze two embryos sept 2014. Found a gestational surrogate in Georgia who is doing work up. Labs. No contract yet. It's aggravating with her being far. Only thing we could afford now. She is in Georgia and I am in tx. So, once she is a official match, we will transfer one over.
Welcome! That is great you found a GS! Good luck to you.

Welcome and good luck on your journey. My IP's aren't local to me either. IM came up for one u/s appt but we e-mail and talk on the phone often. I call her often during the OB appts so she can be part of the appt.
GSx1 - 05/13/2013 GSx2 for T&B - EDD 6/21/2015 - They're having a GIRL!
First off welcome. Our GC was two states away, but we talked daily on email or IM. We went to visit about five times including the birth & then did FaceTime for any ultrasounds that we didn't fly in for in person. A few days after the birth we drove home with our precious angel. Long eight hour drive but we stopped along the way for feedings & diaper changes.
Welcome! I am a GC in Ohio for a couple in Europe so it may seem far but a couple states is manageable! Good luck with everything!
