Amelia, American Intended Parent in Denver, Colorado, USA

Explain your reasons for wanting a surrogate/donor:

After several traumatic fertility treatments and three miscarriages we have been told that I can't carry a baby to term. Our doctor has recommended finding a gestational carrier since further attempts could be detrimental to my health and unlikely to end very well for us. We are looking for our Wonder Woman who will literally be our hero and help us start our family. We have embryos, we just need to find that perfect lady to help us grow them into a child.

How would you best describe yourself(s):

We are a young, adventurous, funny, fit and very in love couple who have had our hearts broken while trying to start our family.... Everything is in place- we have a house, two great dogs and even some backyard chickens. Now just waiting for baby...

Use this space to communicate a letter to potential Surrogates/Donors:

Dear Wonder Woman, Know that you have the ability to save our lives. Trying to start our family has been one of the hardest, most distressing and traumatic experiences we have gone through as a couple. So far we have put up a great fight, we have some beautiful embryos waiting to be nurtured.... I just can't do it myself. Finding out I can't carry our baby has been one of the most humiliating pieces of information I've learned during this process- how can I call myself a woman if I can't do this ONE thing? But I've come to realize that this is a pretty huge opportunity to develop an amazing relationship with a special person who will literally change our lives and I can hardly contain my excitement! Everything about my husband and I has been pretty unconventional to date - we met in Australia, moved to Pittsburgh, got married in a cute little courthouse and later had a roaring celebration in Brooklyn NY.... Moved to Denver where my husband is a scientist and I Produce TV. We count rock climbing and backyard chicken keeping as our hobbies..., why not start our family in this unique way? Please reach out, let us set up a Skype or email exchange to see if we click. If we do, this could be the very beginning of a wonderful story that we get to create together.
