Fort Lauderdale, Florida
Many people don’t know it, but Fort Lauderdale took its name from Major William Lauderdale, commander of the detachment of soldiers who built the first fort during the Second Seminole War. Fort Lauderdale is one of the largest municipalities in Broward County, and was incorporated in March 27, 1911. The city encompasses approximately 36 square miles with an estimated population of 176,013.
There are so many things to do in Fort Lauderdale, as with so many other cities in South Florida. On the north and south banks of Fort Lauderdale’s New River is the Riverwalk Park in the heart of Downtown. Riverwalk is host to the City’s cultural, arts, science, and historical district. Places to visit include the Museum of Discovery and Science, Broward Center for the Performing Arts, Museum of Art and Old Fort Lauderdale Village and Museum. Fort Lauderdale is also home to the nationally acclaimed “Las Olas Boulevard” where you will find a host of fashion boutiques, art galleries, and unique restaurants alongside trendy cafes and bars.
As a major city in the surrogate-friendly state of Florida, Fort Lauderdale is a great place for Intended Parents to begin their surrogate journey. We are a premier, full-service surrogacy agency that works with Intended Parents, Surrogates, and Egg Donor’s (who may be looking into Fort Lauderdale Egg Donation) nationally and across the globe.
We have a team of individuals that are dedicated to not only creating families, but to building relationships and providing everyone we encounter with the best possible care available.
Why Should I Become a Surrogate in Fort Lauderdale?
I’m interested in Surrogacy because I:
- Have a strong desire to help those who can’t have a family of their own. I’m compassionate & empathetic and want to do something important.
- Really love being pregnant – I’m one of those women who are blessed with this natural strength and I want
to give back - Am a mom who lives to bring joy to others.
- Value family, connection, community.
- Am worthy. I love providing for my own family while also providing for others.
Gestational Surrogacy is when the surrogate mother has no biological relationship to the child that she is carrying. In this type of surrogacy, the surrogate becomes pregnant through IVF.
Surrogacy compensation generally starts at $60,000+ and goes up from there depending on a variety of factors.
We work to match our surrogates and intended parent/s based on similar values and personalities. Once we feel we have a match we will share a non-identifying profile of the surrogate and the intended parent/s to each other. If both parties feel there is a potential match, we will schedule an in-person visit or virtual meeting between the surrogate and intended parent/s.
No, you must have given birth to at least one child and you must currently be raising that child. One of the reasons for this is you must be able to show fertility along with your OB/GYN medical records.
Yes. At Creative Love we require all surrogate mothers to be between the ages of 21 to 40 years old.
The average match time at our surrogacy agency is 30 days though it can be more or less depending on the circumstances.
No. Creative Love only works with gestational carriers which means you will be using the eggs of either a chosen egg donor or the intended mother.
Absolutely! As long as your OB has no medical misconducts against them, and they accept the insurance presented to them.
Our surrogates become pregnant through IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) where an embryo is transferred into the surrogate’s uterus.
It is possible. This decision will be made by a fertility doctor. They will have to review your past medical records to determine if you would be a good candidate for surrogacy.
Being that science is so advanced and continues to evolve into higher success rates, it is common that a single embryo will be transferred.
No, you do not have to be married to become a surrogate mother. We welcome many single mothers to our agency.
The American Society of Reproductive Medicine sets guidelines that the fertility clinics follow. These are not laws, but guidelines for the safety and health of the surrogate mother and the baby she is carrying. Typically, this would limit overall pregnancies to 6 or less.
Yes! Following the preliminary match of you and the intended parents we will arrange an in-person meeting (at our office) or virtual meeting, depending on location.
No. We will make sure that a proper insurance policy is purchased for you on your behalf covering the pregnancy, delivery and recovery. If you have your own insurance policy, we will verify to ensure that it is surrogate friendly.
You would have to have stopped for a minimum of two consecutive menstrual cycles to proceed to the clinical medical screening.
