How can I Afford Surrogacy? Advice for Oklahoma Surrogate Mothers and Intended Parents

Many people have questions about surrogacy. Both intended parents and surrogate mothers in Oklahoma want to know, “How much does surrogacy cost?” While there is no simple answer to this question, there are ways you can get a vague idea of how expensive surrogacy is. At Adoption and Surrogacy Choices of Oklahoma, we’re here to help you with all your surrogacy needs. Keep reading to see all the ways we can help you during surrogacy in Oklahoma.

How Much Does It Cost For Surrogate Mothers in Oklahoma to Begin the Process?

In almost all cases, it costs nothing to become a surrogate. Because you’ll be helping another person who can’t conceive on their own, you don’t have to pay anyone to go through your surrogacy journey. However, as you may know, even if pregnancy isn’t financially costly, it can take a toll in other ways. Before you decide to become a surrogate mother in Oklahoma, think about the mental, emotional, and physical changes you’ll have to prepare for.

Answering Surrogates FAQs About Finances

Because surrogacy is so rarely talked about, it can be difficult to know what to expect as an Oklahoma surrogate. However, we’re here to answer all of your financial questions about surrogacy!

  • Will I Get Paid to Become a Surrogate?

Yes. At Adoption and Surrogacy Choices of Oklahoma, we offer compensated surrogacy for the surrogates who work with us. How much we pay is completely dependent on individual factors, but it can reach up to $40,000. Pregnancy is a complex process, and we want to make sure you’re fairly compensated for the help you’re providing to the intended family.

  • Will I Have to Pay for Medical Expenses and Other Surrogacy Costs?

No. At Adoption and Surrogacy Choices of Oklahoma, your surrogacy costs will be completely covered by an outside source — usually the intended parents. Because surrogacy is such an altruistic way to give back, we want to make sure you can cover all the expenses you need to.

  • Can I Become a Surrogate More Than Once?

Yes. You can absolutely become a repeat surrogate. However, it’s important to remember that there is a limit to the number of times you can do so. The more pregnancies you experience, the more high risk you may become in certain aspects. And we want to ensure we’re keeping our surrogates as safe as we can.

Also, surrogacy isn’t a full-time job you can support yourself long-term. Pregnancy is difficult, both emotionally and physically, and as a surrogate mother in Oklahoma, you won’t be taking the baby home with you at the end of your pregnancy. So that’s why surrogacy agencies in Oklahoma — like Adoption and Surrogacy Choices of Oklahoma — believe it’s only right to compensate you for your time and effort. However, if you’re looking to become a surrogate solely for the money, it may not be the best place to look.

Surrogacy in Oklahoma — How much Does Surrogacy Cost for Intended Parents?

How much surrogacy costs is going to depend on a wide number of factors. However, it is true that surrogacy can be quite expensive, beginning at around $125,000 in some cases. This is because of the thorough medical technology used to make surrogacy possible — like IVF. Then when you consider the usual pregnancy expenses that can rack up over $10,000 on their own, you can see why surrogacy costs are on the higher side.

However, you do have options to help lighten the load. You may qualify for surrogacy funding, and your health insurance may be able to cover some of the costs. Look near the bottom of this page to learn more about your financial options.
