Meet Malissa, a 2x Experienced Surrogate in Iowa
One of the most frequently asked questions I receive is “why.”
I decided to be a surrogate for many reasons, one being that I love pregnancy and have had pretty easy labor & deliveries with my 3 children… but the biggest reason for me is the devastating thought of others not being able to have children of their own. I want to help others feel that same love and joy I get to have being a parent by giving the biggest blessing and being a gestational surrogate.
Even though my husband and I decided we were done growing our own family, I didn’t feel like I was ready to completely close that chapter of having those experiences. I talked to my husband about surrogacy and looked into many different agencies not quite ready to fully commit…until we came across Circle Surrogacy. I emailed asking if I could chat on the phone with someone just to answer some questions and the coordinator that reached out was also an experienced carrier! She helped answer all questions and concerns I had leaving me with such a great feeling about what to expect all while giving me the clarity I needed to move forward with the process!
After connecting with them personally, I knew it was meant to be and I was 100% ready to give the beautiful gift of life to another couple! I absolutely love Circle Surrogacy, how personable they were and continue to be.
I helped bring two sweet little boys into this world via surrogacy, delivering the first baby August 23rd 2021 and most recently delivered for my second journey with a different couple February 12th 2024!
Surrogacy is such a beautiful process and journey to embark on for so many reasons.. it not only helps start/complete a family for others but also helps you and your family at the same time with great compensation and even better memories!
I have documented both of my surrogacy journeys from start to finish in my Facebook group “pregnant with purpose” and will have that link below for you to join and get a more in-depth look on all I have experienced as a surrogate thus far.
If you are thinking you might like to become a surrogate, I would love to help guide you through this amazing process, and answer any questions you may have not only before but throughout your journey as well, I know how much it meant to me to have that when I was considering becoming a surrogate!
Whether you are wanting more info on possibly becoming a surrogate or just feel intrigued and want to chat about my journeys, Feel free to reach out and ask any questions you may have!
I am an open book and absolutely love talking about all things surrogacy!
As a circle surrogacy ambassador, I vow to be on your team, be not only your friend but another support system! Together, we can help make a family’s dream of having a child of their own, come true ❤️
