About the intended parents profile

We are a loving family hoping to find a surrogate to help us with our dream of growing our family. We are a happily married couple of 8 years and have been together for 16 years. We have a beautiful little girl named Anjali, who is almost 7 years old. Anjali is our world. She is the most wonderful little girl so sweet and thoughtful, and extremely funny and smart. Anjali has brought so much happiness to our lives and we are truly blessed to have her in our lives. We enjoy spending family time together by going to the movies, or to the park or even going out to dinner. We also enjoy quality time at home making popcorn and cuddling up on the couch watching movies and playing board games or making puzzles. Family vacations are important to us and we make it a priority to take a family trip at least once a year. We have always dreamed of having more than one child and deeply want Anjali to have a sibling. Anjali asks us frequently why she doesn't have a brother or sister like the other children in her class, and it would mean the world to us to find someone to fulfill our family dream of having another child.

Intended parents surrogacy preferences

We require the help of a surrogate because we are unable to carry a baby on our own due to our second pregnancy ending in a hysterectomy. Five years ago we were pregnant with our second daughter and were over the moon with joy to be blessed with another child. However, this pregnancy endured many complications due to a severe and extremely rare life threatening pregnancy condition, placenta percreta. This is a serious pregnancy condition that occurs when blood vessels and other parts of the placenta grow through the uterine wall. Due to this condition, it caused severe hemorrhaging at 19 weeks which resulted in an emergency hysterectomy. After losing our baby, our only dream is to have another child so that our family can feel sense of completeness. The loss of a child is the worst possible experience in the world and I do not wish this upon anyone. Not only did we lose a child, but we also lost the ability to have another child on our own.

Message from the intended parents

Being intended parents in this process gives us the hope that we will find someone that will share our passion for a family and understand that just because we have one child, does not mean that we do not deserve another. It is truly inspirational to know that there are such strong and incredible women, willing to help other families in need. We hope to find a surrogate that can sympathize with our story and understand how helpless we feel and how anxious we are to grow our little loving family.
