Surrogacy in Connecticut

Can I Become a Surrogate in Connecticut?

Yes! Accel Conceptions proudly accepts surrogate applications from Connecticut.

Connecticut is one of the most surrogacy-friendly states in the country. The Connecticut Parentage Act provides a clear legal framework for gestational surrogacy and recognizes intended parents as the legal parents of a child born through surrogacy. Courts routinely grant pre-birth parentage orders, helping ensure parentage is established before delivery and creating a smooth legal process for everyone involved.

Accel Conceptions works with experienced Connecticut assisted reproduction attorneys who will guide you through every legal step and ensure your rights are protected throughout your journey.

From your first application through delivery and recovery, our team is here to support you every step of the way.

“I couldn't have asked for a better journey, being a first-time Surrogate. I matched with my Intended Parents just 1 month after I applied. We chatted almost every day during pregnancy because they were so caring and supportive to me. We’ve become life-long friends. The team at Accel Conceptions was amazing, they not only made it very clear what to do in every step of the process but also shared their personal experiences with me. Thank you to everyone on the Accel Conceptions team for all of your help and support in making this the best journey ever.”
