What does it mean to have a Gestational Carrier?

A woman who carries a fetus and gives birth to a child for another woman or couple. For a woman to serve as a gestational carrier, an embryo (created by the process of in vitro fertilization) is implanted in her uterus. The gestational carrier has no biological relationship to the embryo she is carrying.

How it all started??? I was attending a graduation dinner with friends to celebrate Shawna, when the ladies asked how my IVF journey was going. We giggled over the doctor’s remarks regarding surrogacy, when Lindsey offered to have our baby. Here we are a year later, after several appointments with lawyers, counselors, doctors, and nurses, on this journey together.

Talk about Team Baby Watrous- Thank you to Layla & her sister Amy for assisting Lindsey with her weekly progesterone shots!

It’s a big commitment to be a gestational carrier, requiring a ton of hormones that affect your mood and ability to care for your family. Words aren’t enough to express our gratitude for the Kent family and the sacrifices they have all made to be a part of bringing our Watrous Baby into this world.

👶 Please join me in giving Lindsey, Jonathan, Ryin, and Jase a warm welcome to our TRIBE.

Thank you for helping us make our dreams become possible. We are elated with excitement 🤸‍♀️🤸‍♂️🤸‍♀️🤸‍♂️   

Love, 

Watrous Family
