If you are an intended parent, surrogate mother, egg donor, or sperm donor and you want to find an interested party looking to enter into a “family building” you can put a specified advertisement. The advice below will help you write a successful one.
1. Before placing the ad find out everything you need about the surrogacy. Research the prices, procedures, medical treatment, insurance and legal details connected to the surrogacy option you are thinking about.
2. Include in the ad information about yourself and your situation. The access to your information in the Internet will be free so think carefully about giving any personal details like your address and/or telephone number. It would be right to include the place you are located in, age, marital status, the reasons why you want to undergo the surrogacy. You can also share your expectations about the location of another side and their travel availability. Include your thoughts about abortion, multiple birth and reduction that will guarantee that only people with the same point of view will reply to your ad. Be also ready to tell where you live in your first e-mail. If you include the financial expectations into your classified ad. These matters play significant role for both surrogates and intended parents. The first disadvantage of placing any financial information is that you’ll get replies only from the interested parties. And the second one is that this way you can miss a perfect match. Because of that it will be better to indicate a “range” of fees and compensation comfortable for you, depending on the situation. All the intended parents know that surrogate compensation requirements differ, ranging from very low or none to very high, but all surrogates are “compassionate” or they would not become surrogates.
3. Surrogate arrangements can be psychologically, physically and economically difficult, even if everything goes its best way. Think carefully if it is necessary to mention your previous problematic arrangements in the ad, they can frighten away the responders. After placing the ad go into each search with a huge desire to find the perfect partner to create a family.
4. Check your ad. Correct all the punctuation, capitalization, and grammar mistakes if there are any because the way your ad is written can influence the impression about you that the readers will have. Ask someone to examine your ad and to correct the rest of mistakes.
5. Be patient when you wait for responses to your ad. The Internet etiquette dictates to receive all the responds from another party no mater if you are interested in them or not. If you want to stop communication with a potential match, respectfully inform the other party so that they could continue their search. Take away your ad when you enter into an informal agreement with another party.
Good luck on your surrogacy journey!
