Welcome to Information on Surrogacy. Are you looking into a surrogate mother as an option to grow your family?

Are you interested in learning how to become a surrogate mother, either traditional or gestational? You've come to the right place to gather free information on surrogacy. Here you can learn all about commercial surrogacy and surrogate babies.

My name is Rayven Perkins. I am a two-time gestational surrogate mother, having delivered a set of twins as well as a singleton baby to terrific intended parents. I am the author of How to Become a Gestational Surrogate Mother: A Step-by-Step Guide from Decision to Delivery I have been involved in the commercial surrogacy community for more than four years. Despite the fact that this community is worldwide, and growing, it is still a relatively small, close knit community.

I have created this site to help families everywhere bring surrogate babies into the world. I want to help women learn how to become a surrogate, as well as provide information on surrogacy issues for all those who are interested in surrogate motherhood.

It is my intention that this site help those new to the surrogate pregnancy world, both surrogate mothers and intended parents, understand the lengthy and sometimes complicated process of traditional and gestational surrogacy, and to understand all the intricate issues that go along with such a journey. There is even information here for egg donors.

Commercial surrogacy is an emotional whirlwind, for everyone involved. Arguments happen, feelings get hurt, and things do go wrong. It is important that everyone looking into this process understands what can happen and how to overcome a bad situation.

Most surrogate mothers will tell you that they become a surrogate mother because there is compensation involved.

In fact, most surrogates would be offended by the mere mention of money.

But the truth is, most surrogate mothers would be unable to become a surrogate without financial incentive.

This site is not intended to say whether or not money should be a factor in commercial surrogacy, but it will talk about money and compensation in a clear, no-nonsense manner.


If, however, you have arrived at this site because the promises of financial reward have drawn you to surrogacy, I'm afraid you are in for a rude awakening.

Surrogacy is first and foremost about sacrifice, both for the surrogate mother and the intended mother. These two women sacrifice physically and emotionally for a common goal; to bring surrogate babies into the world.

Surrogacy is not something that is right for everyone, be they potential surrogate mothers or intended parents.

For many, the emotions involved in this process are simply too overwhelming.

Simply recognizing this fact goes a long way.

Infertility and surrogate motherhood is not easy.

It is a rough and extremely time consuming road to follow, but the rewards are wonderful.

At the end of the road is a beautiful child, or twin surrogate babies, that many people have helped into the world.


Best wishes on your surrogacy or infertility road.

May you be blessed with healthy children.
