Ойын-сауық
Get ready for an emotional rollercoaster as Maria and Keven share their awe-inspiring "Surrogacy Journey" on this episode of Heal Squad. Joined by their surrogate couple and Stephanie Levich, from Family Match Consulting, they unravel the challenges faced in finding the perfect match in surrogacy and the crucial importance of a strong support system. Unforeseen delays and pandemic woes add unexpected twists, but the journey remains positive and rewarding as you will hear.
Tune in to witness the deep bond formed with their surrogate couple and the heartwarming, play-by-play, moments leading up to the long-awaited embryo transfer, birth week, and ultimately the welcoming of their little miracle, Athena. They discuss the aftermath, whether the surrogate will remain in touch with the baby (they will) and what other surrogates and families do.

How beautiful and wholesome to do it in an as much natural and familial way connecting the two families so that both parties heal and digest this process as much and as fast as possible. 'Karina' is the gestational carrier mum and Maria is her before and after mum.
I smiled this whole episode. I just adore & love Maria, so happy she has been blessed.
Yasssss! I have been so excited for the first drop of details about Precious Baby Athena & this play by play of the process did NOT disappoint. 👏🏼Y’all covered it all and the back & forth of gratefulness culminating in Maria’s tearful thank you towards the end was OH-SO-MOVING.✨M. A. G. I. C.

Such beautiful story. Congrats to Maria and Kevin on Athena. Love watching Maria on TV especially on Live with Kelly and Mark/ Ryan.
WOW heartfelt beyond words
I found this to be a very interesting podcast regarding a process I knew little about. Thanks for sharing some true positivity at a time we are subjected to far too much negativity!
So happy for you guys! Athena is beautiful! Your surrogate seems like a wonderful person. Love you guys!
What a beautiful experience for you all! It is wonderful to hear that this journey was selfless, loving and joyful for both families and that you are all going to stay connected. Congratulations on the birth of your beautiful baby girl!
This was so nice to hear both perspectives. I love that you found someone to give you the most amazing gift.
So excited for you two. So grateful there are people who are willing to do this for others.
The way you all are together is so beautiful it made me cry tears of joy what a lovely story and you are all amazing people to be so open, giving and loving to each other - congratulations on your wonderful family xxxx
Congrats, you guys! What a beautiful story. Best wishes with your sweet baby!
Oh wow !!! from Greece with love Maria🇬🇷❣️🇬🇷❣️🇬🇷❣️
What a beautiful journey! Thank you for sharing such a personal story with us ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😭
I was a surrogate for my cousin and her husband in 2013-2014 (for free!) I now totally get why people get paid for it. 😂 however, it was by FAR the best decision I ever made, because it gave me the courage to become a single mother by choice and I set out to find a sperm donor. The light of my life, my daughter, will now turn 9 in Sept. ❤ I’m so happy to hear your journey end well and for you to get the happiness that you deserve! Fertility issues are HARD! You’re already a superstar for making it to this point. 💕

My daughters baby a month ago was almost born that way but they then broke her water.
So Maria, did you use your eggs and your hubbys sperm or did the surrogate use her eggs? So happy for you and wish you all the best !💗

Is it necessary to pay money for the surrogate mother? Or its different between each country?

The surrogate mother has medical bills and besides cares enough to give herself to bring a new life to wanting parents! We pay for so much less on this world, she is a rock star and was able to give them the biggest gift
