Older couple experiences multiple natural conception failures; surrogacy helps them have a baby

Ms. Cai and Mr. Li had been married for many years. When they were younger, both were focused on building their careers, so they never planned for pregnancy. Now that they had achieved success in their professional lives, not having children had become a source of regret. After multiple unsuccessful attempts at natural conception, they went to a hospital for a check-up. The doctor explained that Ms. Cai had a relatively small pelvis and, considering her age at the time of her first pregnancy, there was a high likelihood of complications during natural birth. For safety reasons, they decided to forego natural conception and explore other options.

Through a hospital referral, Ms. Cai and Mr. Li learned about Uterus International Medical. On June 9, 2019, they had their first consultation with us. Based on their situation, we recommended surrogacy services. After reviewing many successful cases, they became confident that they too could become parents. On August 9, 2019, they officially signed a contract with Uterus International Medical, launching their fertility plan.

Since they had initially considered IVF, Mr. Li completed sperm retrieval as early as June 17, 2018. On August 30, 2019, Ms. Cai successfully underwent egg retrieval. To provide the best possible conditions for the new life, their embryos were transferred to the Royal Hospital.

On October 11, 2019, the surrogate mother underwent the critical embryo transfer procedure. Although the first transfer attempt was unsuccessful, after a second transfer, the surrogate mother became successfully pregnant. Everyone was overjoyed, knowing that all their efforts had finally paid off.

Finally, on June 22, 2020, at 13:00, a healthy baby boy was born, weighing 3,500 grams and measuring 48 centimeters. Ms. Cai and Mr. Li held their angelic, peacefully sleeping baby in their arms, their faces glowing with happiness. This became an unforgettable moment in their lives.
