From the Start , 3+2 = 5

Twin A 12 Weeks
Twin B 12 Weeks


Our journey has been evolving over the past 2-3 years, thinking of ways to expand our family. We explored Foster Care, Adoption and Surrogacy. In November 2010, we decided that surrogacy was the option for us.

3+2 = 5
3 = 1 daughter, and 2 sons
+ 2 =
Twins due in November/December 2011,
altogether = 5

We decided on our clinic, Surrogacy Centre India with Dr. Shivani, in January of 2011.

All of January and February were filled with tests, paper work, contracts and fantastic information and communication between ourselves and Dr. Shivani, and her staff at the clinic.
