Crossed the finish line of our jorney

 And now, we can finally write these words we dreamed of for so long: we are parents. Our son was born a few weeks ago, and nothing could have prepared us for the overwhelming wave of love and gratitude we felt the first time we held him in our arms.

The days following his birth were intense, filled with both joy and practical responsibilities. Alongside the sleepless nights and endless cuddles, we had to navigate the process of registering his birth and obtaining the necessary documents to return home. With the help of our agency, the clinic, and our lawyers, everything was handled step by step. It was reassuring to know that we were not alone — every question we had, from paperwork to passports, was answered with patience and clarity.

Georgia, the country where our journey came full circle, will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Beyond its breathtaking landscapes and warm people, we found a legal framework that protected everyone involved and a team of professionals who truly cared. The clinic and the agency accompanied us through every moment, from the first embryo transfer to the day we finally walked out of the hospital as a family of three.

Leaving Georgia was bittersweet. We were eager to begin our new life with Tyler at home, yet we felt deep gratitude toward the people and the place that made our parenthood possible. On the plane, as Tyler slept peacefully in our arms, we looked at each other and realized: we had made it. After years of uncertainty, tears, and hope, we were finally living the dream we had once only whispered to each other.

Our story doesn’t end here — in many ways, it’s only beginning. But we share this chapter with you to say: surrogacy, despite its challenges, can lead to the most beautiful gift. We hope that by opening our hearts and sharing our path, others may find strength, guidance, and comfort as they take their own steps forward.

With love and gratitude,
Two very proud new parents — and baby Tyler

  1. I’m curious — how long did it take to get all the documents sorted after Tyler was born? Did you face any unexpected delays?

    1. From birth to leaving Georgia, it took about three weeks. Most of that time was paperwork: birth certificate, passport, and legal confirmations. We were expecting it to take longer, but with our lawyers’ support, it was actually smoother than we thought.

  2. The way you describe leaving Georgia on the plane gave me goosebumps. Such a beautiful ending to a long road! We have started our process in Greece, feels heartwarming since the moment of succesful embryo transfer to our surrogate.

    1. Thank you, Hilda! For us, the main factor was the clear legal framework in Georgia that protects intended parents and surrogates. Our agency presented several options, but Georgia offered both trust and transparency, and we never regretted that choice.

    1. From our experience: yes. The surrogate had her own medical care, legal protection, and psychological support. Everything was transparent. Of course, every country and program is different, but in Georgia we felt it was handled responsibly.

    2. We also went through surrogacy in Georgia last year, and we can confirm this. Our surrogate had her own independent legal advisor, which gave us peace of mind.

    1. Hi, Polo! Sorru for long respond.
      He did amazing on the flight! Slept almost the entire time. We were so nervous, but the crew and even other passengers were kind and supportive. At home, he’s adjusting beautifully — lots of snuggles and curious eyes.

  8. Did you meet other international couples in Georgia during the process? I imagine it helps not to feel alone.

    1. we met couples from Spain, Italy, and even Australia. Sharing our experiences with them made the waiting and paperwork days easier. It really felt like a small community of people walking the same road.

    2. What about anonymity?

      Видалити
    3. Sure, anonymity is one of the important details of the process. However, it was the choice of both couples (btw, we didn't share names, just talked about our affairs and worries). For those who have overcome judgments, it becomes easier. Wish you support and recognition!
      With love
