This is How We Care for Our Surrogates
April 2025

Surrogacy is an act of immense generosity, but it is also a process that demands medical, legal, and emotional support at every step. At Surrogate Mexico, we understand that to ensure the well-being of the baby, we must first care for the person carrying them: the surrogate. That’s why we’ve designed a comprehensive care model that places our surrogates at the center, ensuring they are healthy, safe, and supported from the very beginning.
In this article, we’ll explain in detail how we care for our surrogates, what guarantees they receive throughout the process, and why this support directly translates into better outcomes for your future baby.
Rigorous Screening: The First Step for a Safe Process
Caring for our surrogates begins even before they are part of our program. At Surrogate Mexico, we apply a strict selection protocol to ensure that each woman participating as a surrogate meets the following criteria:
- Has had at least one full-term pregnancy without complications.
- Is in good overall and gynecological health.
- Lives in a stable family and social environment.
- Has clear and well-understood motivations for participating in the process.
- Passes psychological and socioeconomic evaluations.
- Undergoes a home visit to verify living conditions.
This process allows us to ensure that each surrogate is in the best condition to carry a pregnancy and can do so in an environment that supports her well-being and that of the baby.
Continuous and Specialized Medical Care
Once selected, the surrogate enters a structured medical care plan, which includes:
- Regular gynecological monitoring from the time of embryo transfer.
- Monthly and later biweekly obstetric follow-ups in advanced stages.
- Periodic ultrasound studies to assess the baby’s development.
- Access to private hospitals with neonatal units.
- 24/7 emergency consultation availability.
We work hand in hand with maternal-fetal medicine specialists, trained to detect any complication early and ensure that both the surrogate and baby are in optimal condition.
Emotional Support at Every Stage of the Process
Being a surrogate also involves a considerable emotional load. That’s why all our surrogates have access to:
- Psychologists specialized in surrogacy processes.
- Emotional support sessions before, during, and after pregnancy.
- Postpartum follow-up to support emotional closure after the process.
We also encourage respectful and clear communication between the surrogate and the intended parents, establishing prior agreements on the type of contact they wish to maintain during the pregnancy.
Financial Security to Guarantee Peace of Mind
The surrogate’s financial peace of mind is essential so she can focus on her health and the pregnancy. Therefore:
- All compensations are stipulated in contracts signed before a notary.
- Payments are managed through a regulated bank trust, ensuring transparency and punctuality.
- All pregnancy-related expenses are covered: medications, consultations, exams, hospitalization, maternity clothing, supplements, among others.
- Major medical insurance and life insurance are provided throughout the process.
This model avoids conflicts or delays and protects both the surrogate and the intended parents.
Personalized Care: Every Surrogate Matters
At Surrogate Mexico, we don’t work with numbers or impersonal processes. Each surrogate receives:
- Individualized care based on her medical and emotional needs.
- A dedicated case coordinator in direct contact with her.
- Periodic evaluations by the team to review her mood, health, and living conditions.
- In-person meetings and video calls to maintain a human connection.
We know that a well-cared-for surrogate passes that care on to the baby she’s carrying. That’s why every detail matters.
Why Caring for the Surrogate Is Caring for the Baby
Medical studies have shown that the surrogate’s emotional and physical environment has a direct impact on the baby’s development. A pregnancy with high stress levels or poor follow-up can increase the risk of preterm birth, low birth weight, or neonatal complications.
On the other hand, when the surrogate feels safe, valued, and cared for:
- The pregnancy is more likely to go to term.
- Anxiety and cortisol levels that affect the baby are reduced.
- Healthy birth weight rates increase.
- A stronger trust bond is built with the intended parents.
That’s why at Surrogate Mexico we say that caring for our surrogates is caring for your future baby. It’s not just a philosophy—it’s a medical and human strategy that directly impacts outcomes.
