What are Earthly Angels' fees?
Agency Fee for Surrogacy (US clients): $4,000 (NON-REFUNDABLE)
If outside the US, please add: $2,000 (NON-REFUNDABLE)
If you need EA to locate a sperm or egg donor: $1,500 (discount if also using a Surrogate Mother through EA.)
What do we need to do before EA can begin the matching process?
You must complete all 4 steps below:
*Complete an application/profile
*Have phone Interview
*Sign contract with Earthly Angels
*Pay 50% of agency fee at sign up (and remainder due when you select your Surrogate).
Earthly Angels can assist you with the entire process, step by step including, but not limited to:
*You can decide if there is a suitable Surrogate for you that's on the available list, but if not, we will begin advertising for you until prospective matches are found.
*During this time if the Intended Father will need to have a semen analysis if his sperm will be used.
*Once a prospective match is found, EA will exchange profiles between you.
*If both parties still think it's a possible match, EA will schedule a phone conference with all parties (agency, IPs and Surrogate).
*If both parties feel like it's a definite match after the conference, EA will:
Locate attorneys, doctors, clinics, insurance plans, if needed.
*Get the expense account set up and handle all financial transactions.
*Work out the Surrogacy agreement and submit the info to the attorney that is needed to draft the Surrogacy contract.
*Assist with getting appointments scheduled for any additional testing that the clinic requires for the IPs and Surrogate.
If it will be a traditional surrogacy, EA will begin tracking her cycle for IUI or home insemination. If for home insems, I will let you and the surrogate know when the home inseminations will need to be done, and also give the Surrogate detailed instructions on how to do the insemination.
*If the Intended Mom is interested in breast feeding, EA will locate a lactation consultant in your area.
*Keep track of all the surrogate's appointments by getting the report faxed to me (for any visits the IPs cannot attend to ensure there is still an ongoing pregnancy before sending payments each month).
When will the Surrogate find out if she is pregnant?
Most Surrogates will take home pregnancy tests starting approximately 7 days after the procedure, but the actual pregnancy will be confirmed with a blood test 10-14 days after the IUI/home inseminations or IVF.
When will the Surrogate's compensation begin?
At approximately 6 weeks gestation, the Surrogate will go to a clinic for an ultrasound to confirm that a viable heart beat has been detected. EA will send the first comp payment within 14 after the ultrasound confirmation report has been received, and on the first of each month thereafter.
* I will personally work out any/all issues that arise during the journey to the best of my ability to ensure that everyone involved has a wonderful experience.
* If a pre-birth order has been issued, I will speak with the hospital administration to ensure everything goes smoothly during the delivery with the Intended Parents' names being placed on the birth certificate.
*** EA's assistance doesn't stop at the delivery, but 6 months post!*** Unfortunately, EA cannot guarantee that everyone will have a baby.
