The moment I knew the surrogacy space was for me 💡

Our team reflects on that heartwarming experience that solidified their purpose. While each person arrived at this line of work in a different way, they were all drawn to sharing the joy of parenthood.

We’re grateful that each path led to Heartland and helping to build beautiful families every year! 💜

Becoming a surrogate: empowering.
Using my planner: terrifying.

Can you relate?? 🤷‍♀️😂🤰

Education is about access to truth! Today, we’re centering resources that help people navigate surrogacy with informed choices.

We've broken down some key points from each topic below 👇 and visit our roundup of intended parent guides:

LEGAL👩‍⚖️
Current laws, parentage, finances, insurance, conception, restrictions, difficult outcomes, confidentiality, & responsibilities are all components of the surrogacy contract that protect all parties.

EMOTIONAL🫶🏼
Surrogacy can be an emotional rollercoaster, which is why we integrate mental health support into the surrogacy journey, including access to professional counseling. There are also external peer support options to connect with those on a similar path.

MEDICAL🩺
Gestational surrogacy has strong, data-backed outcomes with average live birth rates per embryo transfer of 60–75% (higher with donor eggs) & over 95% of pregnancies resulting in a live birth once a surrogate is pregnant.

FINANCES 💰
Surrogacy is a significant financial commitment, and many intended parents need additional resources to make it attainable. From specialized loans, grants, & creative strategies, we've put together a list of ways to help make the dream of parenthood a reality.

When Bad Bunny said every country by name, he reminded us of something powerful 🌎

America has always been built together. By many cultures. Many stories. Many kinds of families.

At Heartland Surrogacy, we believe love is stronger than fear, borders, or hate.

Because love builds a family 💜

Bringing your baby home is a big moment!

Exciting. Emotional. A little “Are we really ready for this?!”

Here are a couple of things you can do before, during, and after to feel fully supported👇

🤰Even before your baby is born, you can begin building that bond by joining prenatal appointments, attending ultrasounds, & staying in regular communication with your surrogate. Those small moments add up & help the connection grow long before baby arrives.

As birth day approaches, having a clear birth plan & keeping important legal documents easily accessible can bring real peace of mind in the moment it matters most! 📋

And once baby is home, support still matters. Whether it’s a trusted friend, family member, or a postpartum doula, having help lined up can make those early newborn weeks feel a little more grounded & a lot less overwhelming 👶

If you’re preparing for parenthood through surrogacy, we’ve put together a supportive guide to help you feel confident every step of the way 🤍

Misinformation creates fear in surrogacy journeys. And fear grows fastest when people don’t know where to turn.

At Heartland, we believe informed journeys are safer journeys.

That’s why we’re proud to share resources like All Paths Family Building that empower people to decide what’s right for them and their future family.

Are you exploring different paths? Here's your first step: get fully informed!

No pressure. No agenda. Just space to understand what’s right for you. Whether you're looking to build your family through surrogacy, adoption, or just want to explore all the options to parenthood.

For surrogates, the 4th trimester is challenging in a different way...

You probably know to expect a lot of prep for the transfer, and all the TLC that goes into growing the baby. But what I wish other first-time surrogates knew is this:

You should prepare yourself for the postpartum period. Get the mental healthcare you need lined up, talk with your IPs about how involved they’d like to be, & speak with your family about your needs after the baby’s birth.

Caring yourself during this part of the journey is just as important as in everything leading up to it.

Even without a baby around, you deserve rest and support in the fourth trimester!

01/05/2026

From the moment you book a call with us through the "fourth trimester," we're your dedicated support team! We're here to demystify the surrogacy process and walk along every step of the way with you ✨

➡️ Understanding what to expect when working with a surrogacy agency can alleviate some of the overwhelm & uncertainty you feel when starting out.

Holidays, family dinners, scrolls full of pregnancy announcements🤰 🤳🏼For many, this time of year brings hope. For others, it can stir up pain, grief, or longing.

If you know someone navigating infertility or starting a surrogacy journey, here’s a gentle reminder: what they really need is connection, not pressured remarks.

Ask yourself: “How can I support them without trying to fix, explain, or minimize?”

Offer your presence: a call, a coffee, a simple “I’m here whenever you want to talk.” Respect their pace & privacy (don’t push for updates or explanations). Celebrate their courage and honor their grief. This journey isn’t linear, and it can be hard to see the happy ending when you’re in the thick of it.

To everyone out there waiting, hoping, healing...we see you. May this season bring you gentle strength, love, and compassion.
