What to Expect as Intended Parents in San Diego
Choosing surrogacy is a big decision, and it’s completely normal to have questions about what comes next. While every family’s path is unique, the process follows a clear series of steps designed to keep everyone informed, prepared, and moving forward together.
At Alpha Fidelis, we guide you through each stage with personalized care, honest communication, and the reassurance that you’ll never have to figure it all out on your own.
- Your Consultation:Every family has a different story, and we want to hear yours. During your consultation, we’ll learn about your goals, answer your questions, explain the process, and outline what the months ahead may look like. Think of it as the beginning of a partnership, not a presentation.
- Finding the Right Match:A successful match is about much more than meeting qualifications. We thoughtfully introduce intended parents and gestational carriers whose expectations, personalities, and communication styles complement one another. Great matches aren’t rushed; they’re built with care.

There are plenty of moving parts, but that’s exactly why we’re here.
- Pregnancy & Ongoing Support:As the pregnancy progresses, we’ll continue supporting both you and your surrogate. From milestone updates to celebrating exciting moments, our team helps keep communication open and the experience as smooth as possible.
- Welcoming Your Baby:The day you’ve been waiting for finally arrives, and it’s every bit as meaningful as you’ve imagined. By the time your baby is born, you’ll know what to expect, who will be involved, and how the final steps unfold. While every birth story is unique, they all have one thing in common: a family that’s forever changed.
Surrogacy is a unique process built on trust, generosity, and the shared excitement of bringing a child into a loving family. From your first conversation to the day you hold your baby, Alpha Fidelis is honored to be part of every meaningful step along the way.
