On May 12, 2026, in Roseville, California, a healthy baby boy made his grand entrance into the world, weighing in at a robust 10 pounds. Delivered safely by vaginal birth, this newest little arrival is the answer to a long-held dream for one extraordinary single mother by choice — and the third successful surrogacy gift from a truly remarkable woman.
For our gestational carrier, the joy of helping a family grow is not a new experience. With this delivery, she has now completed her third surrogacy journey, joining the select circle of three-time proven surrogates who have shaped lives and families through their generosity, strength, and resilience. What moves us most is that, when she felt ready to begin this third chapter, she once again chose Ivy Surrogacy as her partner. That kind of trust — returning to us a third time — is something our entire team holds close.
This birth was also a beautiful reminder that family takes many shapes. The intended mother who welcomed her son today walked into parenthood with intention, courage, and a clear-eyed certainty about the kind of mom she wanted to be. We are honored to have been part of helping that vision become real.
To stand alongside both the surrogate and the intended mom during this milestone delivery, our Client Director, Kelli, traveled to Roseville and was present at the hospital throughout the birth. Kelli has always believed that the hours surrounding delivery deserve every ounce of in-person care our team can offer. Holding space for the surrogate's comfort and recovery, being there for an intended mother's first moments with her child, and witnessing the quiet awe that fills a delivery room when a new life arrives — for Kelli, these are some of the most meaningful parts of her work.
To our intended mom: congratulations. The road that brought you to this morning was patient and long — built from a brave decision, a careful match, an embryo transfer, and the steady passage of time from transfer through delivery. Your son is here. He is healthy. He is yours. There are no words large enough for this moment — only our deepest joy in having walked beside you to reach it.
To our surrogate: thank you. Three times now, you have given a part of your strength, your time, and your body to families who could not have arrived at parenthood without you. Choosing Ivy Surrogacy again for this third journey is one of the highest compliments our team could ever receive, and we are forever grateful.
