Hi,

I don't really know where to post this, so since it's a surrogacy discussion, I am trying my luck here. I hope I don't offend anyone. I do apologise if it seems out of place :-(

I am 34 years old and live in Melbourne. I was diagnosed with uterine cancer earlier on this year which sent my partner and I on a major roller-coaster ride. This resulted in my having to have a hysterectomy as well as removal of my ovaries.

We have not had a chance to have children and I am still struggling to come to terms with the fact that I can't carry our baby. However we did manage to freeze 5 embryos before I had to have the surgery. Now that it's all over and I am in recovery ... I don't quite know where to go from here.

I know I have to find a SURROGATE mom and I would love for it to be in Australia ... but I feel so lost. I don't really know what to do or where to go to start this here in Australia.

Can anyone suggest anything? Has anyone gone through this and can offer some advice.

I have done a little reading into India also, but because we only have 5 embryos; I am very worried about the transporting of them all that way.

Michelle38, could you please Private message me to tell me which clinic and which transport company you used? India may end up being our only option ...

Thank you so much in advance!!! we really need all the help we can get.
