What Surrogacy Means to LGBTQ+ Families: Stories from the Heart

At West Coast Surrogacy, we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to become a parent, no matter who they are or who they love. For LGBTQ+ intended parents, surrogacy is often the bridge between hope and reality, between longing and joy. And at the center of that bridge are people – parents, surrogates, case managers, and caregivers – each playing a vital role in building something extraordinary together.
Each story is unique, but all are rooted in shared hope, resilience, and the unwavering belief that everyone deserves the chance to become a parent.
A Journey Made Possible by Love
When Danny and Jason first pictured life as dads, they knew they’d likely need the help of surrogacy — but they couldn’t have known how much heart would be behind that help. After facing setbacks early on, they found West Coast Surrogacy and met Victoria, a surrogate whose warmth and openness immediately felt like the right fit.
For Victoria, being a surrogate wasn’t just about carrying a baby — it was her way of giving back. As part of the LGBTQ+ community herself, she deeply understood Danny and Jason’s longing to become parents and felt honored to help make that dream real. She made sure they were part of every milestone — attending ultrasounds, feeling the baby kick, and sharing in each joyful moment that brought them closer to meeting their child.
The Ties That Make a Family
That care and closeness didn’t end at birth. As Danny and Jason embraced their new roles as fathers, their relationship with Victoria remained deeply meaningful. She had become more than a surrogate—she was an integral part of their family, forever connected by the love and trust they built together.
When they were ready for baby number two, Danny and Jason turned to Cheyenne, a surrogate whose kindness and dedication gave them the confidence to trust the process all over again. Just like Victoria, Cheyenne didn’t just carry a pregnancy; she shared in their hopes, made space for their excitement, and stayed part of their lives long after their family grew. Together, these relationships remind us that the best surrogacy journeys are built on trust, care, and bonds that last well beyond birth.
