    only God can give you the baby meant for you, not science, not surrogacy.

    I’m sharing this because I wish someone had told me what I was walking into. My surrogacy journey with this agency has been incredibly stressful. It took 14–15 months just to get from application to embryo transfer, and the agency barely communicates unless they need something from you. There’s no support, no community, and no clear explanation of what to expect. I’ve dealt with dishonesty about…

    I have had an amazing experience with Patriot Conceptions as a surrogate. From the very beginning, their team has been supportive, compassionate, and professional. They truly care about both their surrogates and intended parents, and they make sure you feel informed and valued throughout the entire journey. Communication has been excellent, and whenever I had questions or concerns, they were…

I almost think it must not be a real agency at this point. Very very disappointing and upsetting.

    Earlier this year, I had submitted a form expressing interest in learning more about surrogacy. I first spoke with Melissa, the COO, when she called me out of the blue (no email, no text) asking if I was interested in her agency. I recall her sounding quite impatient. But alas I scheduled time and took the meeting a few days later. That was a mistake. I came away with our discussion completely…

    My experience has truly been great so far! I am a first time surrogate and the team has helped answer all my questions and really make me feel comfortable and confident in each phase. I couldn’t ask for a better company to support me throughout the entire process.
