[quote=Anonymous]From our experience $100K is the minimum that you'll need.

In our case, it cost about $160K.  We had one surrogate lined up and went to SG.  We had a very bad experience there.  We had a fresh transfer of twins that resulted in miscarriages at 8 weeks and 16 weeks.  No autopsy, no review of why the pregnancy failed.  We had a second transfer that resulted in a chemical pregnancy.  We had a third transfer that did not take.  We had one 7 day blast left that the RE thought would have a low chance of failure.  After due consideration, we opted to change clinics to VCRM in Reston.  The RE reviewed our case and said that based on some health concerns about our surrogate and the lack of any review of why the first pregnancy failed, he recommended that we get a new surrogate.  We had developed a relationship with her, but ultimately decided to accept his recommendation.  We had to get a new surrogate, a new donor (the first had been supplied by SG and the second provided by  VCRM).  We ended up with 5 blasts.  The first two were implanted and we ended up with healthy twins who are now 6.  However, having to go through all of that twice, meant that it cost us around $160K.  Had we gotten it right the first time, we would have spent close to the other PP.  The failure and switch of clinics, surrogates and donors cost us about $50K extra.[/quote]
