Extraordinary Surrogate Angels

Tristyn - Hi Shelley. Thank you for such kind words. I must say it was a difficult journey, but a wonderful one to take with such amazing people. I thank you for making such a wonderful match. I am glad you were able to spend some time with them and the girls to see how beautiful a gift you've helped them create. You are a wonderful person, and what you get to do on a daily basis is absolutely precious.

Thank you for this phenomenal experience.

Michelle - Being a Surrogate Mother fulfilled me in a way that is hard to put into words. Shelley matched me with the most amazing two people and we bonded instantly. I had waited a long time to make the decision to move forward with becoming a surrogate and I wanted to make the most of it. I shared tears with them when we found out we were pregnant, the first time we got to see him through the ultrasound, the times we got to spend with each other throughout the pregnancy and of course the day we finally got to meet him. It has truly been one of the most amazing experiences of my life and continues to be. I get to see him grow and watch two people do what so many of us take for granted. Being a surrogate has changed my couple's life but it has also changed me as well. I have accomplished many things in my life but I have never felt such an intense sense of pride as I did helping them create their family. I am so grateful to have been part of this journey with my parents, Shelley and Shelley's team. My experience of being a surrogate mother exceeded all my expectations and continues to do so.

Stacey - My first thoughts about becoming a surrogate came from watching friends struggle with infertility. "It came so easy for me. Isn’t there something I can do to help them?” I thought to myself. When you search the internet, millions of sites pop up for surrogacy but one stood out to me: Shelley Smith’s and the warmth of her spirit came through from reading about her own personal struggles.

I emailed ‘The Egg Donor Program/The Surrogacy Program’ just to get some information but instead received a return phone call...Personal Touch?! I was amazed. I scheduled a face to face meeting, again, just to get more information. I started the qualification process, again, just to see if this was something I could do. I was very apprehensive about this huge, life altering, unknown journey. But, every step I took was guided with knowledge and wisdom, compassion and understanding, and just good ole’ fashion love.

Well, hopefully needless to say by now, I became a surrogate through Shelley’s program and had the most amazing adventure of my life (and I think that is saying something from me since I am an airline pilot who has traveled the world). The twins were born in 2001, and I just got their latest Christmas card picture. Words truly cannot describe the feelings I have when I look at their beautiful faces and knowing I helped to bring these precious souls into the world. As wonderful as the children are, I am even more grateful for the relationship I now have with their parents. These are lifelong friends who truly enrich mine and my own family’s life.

It was such an incredible experience that I chose to open myself to another remarkable family. Triplets! It was a totally different experience this second time, but again Shelley and her staff were there every step of the way; they are advocates for your health and well-being, so you can concentrate on giving these new lives the best possible start. The outcome was just as incredible as the first. We delivered three healthy babies (at 33 weeks) who only stayed at the hospital for 1 week and are now thriving like any other rambunctious 6 year olds!

I hope I have given a taste of what surrogacy is like. I also highly recommend this program to make this journey the most rewarding, gratifying and good to the soul it can be.

Sacora - I had the honor of being a surrogate to a beautiful baby girl and couple in Australia that I now refer to as family. From the moment we introduced ourselves over the phone I just had a gut feeling that this is who I was meant to share this amazing experience with, all thanks to Shelley and her wonderful staff for matching us so perfectly.

Our journey was definitely a very positive and loving experience for everyone involved. My children now have an Auntie, Uncle and baby cousin in a foreign country. When I made the decision to become a surrogate it was out of my personal passion to have children of my own and I could never imagine not having the option to do so. Once I knew one hundred percent that my family was complete I made it my personal mission to help complete another family, in doing so I have made an amazing amount of friends and new family members. This is an experience that I would NEVER change for anything in the world and feel so blessed that we are starting on a sibling for the same couple.

Love a very blessed Surrogate

Cristina - I had a wonderful pregnancy. I am currently still talking to the parents we have kept contact and it has been a pleasure working with Shelley, a wonderful person inside and out. I will never forget it has been the best decision in my life.

Nunca dudaria en hacerlo de nuevo porque es algo tan increible cuando los pequenitos me llaman y me dicen que me quieren y los padres tambien.

Shelley,
Gracias por apesas que a pasado el tiempo todavía me recuerda por quererme.
Gracias que Dio este
Con todos
