What is it really like for two dads to build their family through surrogacy?
In this episode of Create A Happy Family, Whitney sits down with Will and Chris as they prepare to welcome their first child. They share how they found their way to surrogacy, what it’s been like building a relationship with their surrogate, Brie, and how they’ve stayed involved in the pregnancy while living in different states.
Their journey has brought exciting milestones, unexpected challenges, and plenty of moments when they’ve leaned on each other, their surrogate, and their team at Egg Donor & Surrogate Solutions. But their circle of support has grown beyond the people directly involved in their journey.
What began as a way to document their experience for themselves and their son has grown into @twogaysandababy, where they share their journey as a gay couple building a family through surrogacy. While sharing their story has meant navigating difficult questions and comments, it has also opened the door to educating others about surrogacy and connecting with dads who understand their path to parenthood firsthand.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Choosing surrogacy as a path to fatherhood
- Building a relationship with a surrogate across the distance
- Navigating the surrogacy process with a trusted support team
- Sharing their family-building journey publicly
- Preparing to welcome their first child
