One of the key considerations in any surrogacy and/or egg donation journey is choosing the right agency. Which agency is the right option includes considering many difference aspects of the journey, including timelines. Surrogacy match times are usually the most important timeline to consider to ensure a timely process. This virtual event will give Intended Parents a deeper insight into what impacts agency matching times, as well as what can make a match time shorter vs. longer, explained by Hatch’s Agency President and International Manager. There will also be time for a Q&A.
Intended Parents looking to pursue an Egg Donation or Surrogacy journey have to consider many key aspects in their decision-making process. This leaves little time to consider important emotional aspects such as how to discuss the journey with future children born through Egg Donation or Surrogacy. This virtual event will bring together experienced Intended Parents to discuss how they planned for these conversations as well as share ideas on how to do so in a suitable manner. There will also be time for a Q&A with experienced Intended Parents.
