Do you have the overwhelming desire to grow your family, but are experiencing problems with conception? You are certainly not alone. According to the Center for Disease Control, 1.5 million married women between the ages of 15 – 44 are unable to get pregnant after at least twelve consecutive months of unprotected sex. Many couples spend thousands of dollars on assisted reproductive technology procedures with less than a 32% success rate for women older than 35 years; that percentage decreasing significantly with age. Open Arms Consultants can help make your dream of becoming a mother come true with the assistance of an egg donor or surrogate. “Today’s advances in medicine and technology have opened doors that previously never existed,” says Souad Dreyfus, Founder. “When the world says “give up,” hope whispers “try it one more time,” but navigating through the journey can be overwhelming…and that’s where Open Arms Consultants come in.”

That’s what happened to a local family.  They tried for several years to get pregnant without success and ultimately began researching surrogacy. “To imagine that a surrogate mother would carry our child was a strange feeling at first,” commented the parents-to-be.  “But all our doubts and fears disappeared after our initial meeting with Open Arms Consultants. From the very first step of this amazing adventure, they were by our side answering all our questions and finding solutions to any problems we encountered along the way. And now, already three months after our cute twins were born, they are still with us.”

Open Arms Consultants wants to help you fulfill your own hopes and desires to have a baby. They will accompany you from the very beginning all the way until your future family is complete. “We assist hopeful parents by identifying the best egg donor or surrogate, acting as a third party communicator, referring reputable fertility lawyers, specialists & clinics, coordinating insurance & finances, and offering guidance all throughout the process,” says Dreyfus.

Maybe you already have a family of your own and feel the need to share your gift with others by becoming an egg donor or surrogate mother.  Open Arms Consultants cherishes their surrogates and egg donors, and offers a generous benefit and compensation package to reward them for creating a life-changing experience for others.  Wendy, the surrogate mother who carried Yolanda and Greg’s twins, is a proud mom of two boys and one girl.  When asked why she chose to be a surrogate mother, she replied, “I have known families who have had issues trying to conceive. So I figured that if I can help out, then why not?” Wendy had a great, easy-going relationship with the parents-to-be. According to Dreyfus, they accompanied her to doctor’s appointments, celebrated happy moments at the spa together, and kept in touch via Skype, text, and emails throughout the process.  After the birth, Wendy did not experience any remorse at handing over the baby to the overjoyed new parents. She was extremely happy for the couple and also very enthusiastic to jump right back into her own kids’ busy schedules. “Being a part of something bigger than yourself is very gratifying,” says Wendy.
