Introduction
Making the decision to become parents represents an important transformation in life, which includes new financial responsibilities. While it will bring additional expenses, it should not be a barrier — rather, it is an opportunity to carefully plan each step. Having a solid financial plan is key to experiencing this stage with peace of mind and preparing the budget for treatments such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) with surrogacy, especially if egg donation is involved.
Importance of Anticipating Costs and Possible Unexpected Expenses
It is essential to consider all costs — from ovarian stimulation, egg retrieval, and fertilization to pregnancy and childbirth. You must anticipate potential unexpected costs that can increase your budget, such as negative test results, miscarriage, the need to repeat cycles, or using different donors. Not all costs are refundable — for example, payments to donors are not dependent on the cycle’s success.
Recommendations for Good Financial Management
Request a detailed initial cost estimate from the fertility clinic.
Agree with your partner on how expenses and responsibilities will be shared.
Create a financial plan that includes income, expenses, and savings.
Reduce or eliminate debt to increase economic stability.
Simplify expenses and avoid unnecessary purchases to allocate more resources to your family plans.
