    Miscellaneous surrogacy related questions that do not fit under any of the other categories

    26. I'm thinking of being a GS Surrogate for my half-sister. She lives in MA and I live in TX. How big a factor is distance? What sort of complications might this cause us? - Heather in TX - Top

    Heather,

    I think distance can be a problem in regards to traveling expenses and the timing of the IVF transfers. In addition, your sister will have to travel in order to attend the birth. If you don't mind traveling and the extra expense that goes along with it...Yes, go for it. I did a long distance relationship with my first couple. I'm in California and they are from NY and we had a great relationship! I hope this helps.
