No one tells you that after your baby is born, the first thing you’ll hold might not be your newborn — it’s a stack of documents.
Don’t worry, that’s completely normal (and we promise, you’ll get to the cuddles part soon). For Australians doing surrogacy in Ukraine, this stage — citizenship by descent and the baby’s passport — can sound complicated. In truth, it’s just a series of clear steps. Once you know the order, everything clicks into place. Read our latest article about Surrogacy in Ukraine for Australians.

A practical guide for Australian parents on surrogacy in Ukraine—how to get Citizenship by Descent and a passport quickly, step by step.

Every agency claims to have “the perfect surrogate.”
Perfect medical results.
Perfect uterus.
Perfect lifestyle.

But here’s a secret from someone who’s been coordinating programs for over a decade: the perfect surrogate doesn’t exist.

Because surrogates aren’t characters in glossy brochures — they’re real women with real lives.
They have kids, jobs, emotions, bad hair days, and sometimes complicated histories.
And yet, they are capable of doing something extraordinary — carrying life for someone else.

We test, screen, check, re-check. That’s important — medical safety and psychological readiness are non-negotiable.
But sometimes agencies and IPs forget that we’re not looking for perfection, we’re looking for stability, empathy, and strength.

I’ve seen surrogates who looked “ideal” on paper — perfect BMI, textbook test results — but emotionally, they couldn’t handle the pressure.
And I’ve seen women who didn’t fit the neat checklist but turned out to be the calmest, most compassionate, reliable partners you could imagine.

The myth of perfection harms both sides.
It makes IPs anxious, thinking they need to “find the one flawless candidate.”
It makes surrogates feel like they must constantly prove their worth to be chosen.

A piece of advice to the Intended Parents over the glass of wine🍷🫂

Surrogate matching is a deeply personal process and let’s not turn it into marketplace where the first one who pays more gets the first available surrogate. Cheers!

IVF add-ons: care or upsell?

Add-ons aren’t automatically bad. Some help in specific cases. But they’re not neutral - they add cost, time, and stress. Before you say yes, run this quick check:

The 6-Question Add-on Filter
• Why me, why now? What in my case makes this needed?
• What’s the evidence - for my age/history? (Guidelines, trials, or just opinion?)
• Does it change live birth rates, or only lab markers?
• Risks or delays? Any side effects or timeline impact?
• Cost vs. absolute benefit? Out of 100 like me, how many more births?
• Simpler alternatives if we don’t add this?

Common add-ons you might hear about: ERA/endometrial tests, “scratch,” immune protocols (steroids/intralipids), time-lapse incubation, endometrial microbiome tests, s***m DNA fragmentation, routine PGT-A in poor responders, PRP/“rejuvenation.”
None should be automatic. Each should be indicated.

At Ave Fertility, our rule is simple: evidence first, clarity always, no pressure. We recommend an add-on only when it’s likely to change outcomes or decisions - and we explain risks, alternatives, and absolute benefit in plain language.

Save & share to bring this to your next consult.
Which question has been the hardest to get answered?

Yesterday we met with our dear friend and fertility doctor, who has just returned from Nepal after conquering Manaslu - a mountain over 8,000 meters high 🏔️
She took our Ave Fertility flag with her all the way to the top and brought it back to us today.

While telling us about that climb, she shared something that stayed with us:

“When I reached the summit, the sun started to rise… and I realized I was one of the few in the world who got to witness that moment.” 🌅

Just imagine it - standing at the top of the world, watching the sunrise.
It’s something truly magnificent. A moment that carries the same feeling we try to give to every Intended Parent: hope, courage, and something bigger than ourselves.

We’re endlessly grateful to her for this gesture, for her warmth, strength, and for sharing such a powerful piece of her journey with us 🤍✨

Where is the silver line between hope and harm?
When do we keep fighting - and when do we choose a child-free life?

We would like to hear your opinion. What would you do?

In psychological assessment there is one question we ask the surrogate: “When did you feel “I am a mom” moment during your OWN pregnancy?”.

🚩Red flag answer: “Only at birth, it’s biology.

✅Green flag answer: “Showing up, making decisions, keeping steady routines”.

When the feeling of “I’m a mom” is tied mostly to giving birth, the attachment can grow especially strong.
When it’s grounded more in caring actions - taking responsibility, tending day to day, making thoughtful choices - it’s usually easier on the heart to entrust the baby to their parents.

Do you see why this matters? Let us know if you want to know about specifics in the comments⬇️
