SURROGATE SPOTLIGHT

ConceiveAbilities Surrogate Loriahn Harden on why she felt called to be a surrogate

MEET CONCEIVEABILITIES SURROGATE LORIAHN HARDEN

I'm Loriahn! I'm 35 years old and am a real estate agent in the Atlanta area who loves to travel, be outside, exercise, and eat good food. I have three children; Levi, Reeves and my only daughter, Londyn. I had my first surrobaby in May of 2018, and he lives in New York City with his mom, dad, and big sister.

LORIAHN'S CALLING TO SURROGACY

Several years ago, a friend of mine was a ConceiveAbilities surrogate who shared her journey online. This was actually the first time I had ever heard about surrogacy! Since I'd had three easy pregnancies, I knew I wanted to research it more. It's always been a life goal of mine to find a way to help someone in a way that couldn't help themselves, and surrogacy seemed like an amazing way to do that. In March 2017, I was matched with my first intended family and immediately knew they were the right couple for me. We had a successful natural cycle transfer that September, and I delivered their healthy baby boy in May 2018. I was matched with my second amazing intended family in March 2021, and we had our transfer in September 2021. In fact, I actually just got a great beta number to let me know this transfer was successful as well!

WHAT MAKES LORIAHN COURAGEOUS

My partner has been amazing... giving me shots and meds and just in general being very supportive of my desire to do this again. My family and friends have been incredibly happy for me and the families I have helped. They all think it's just the most generous thing, and while I agree that it is generous, I also just feel so blessed and honored that I'm able to help a family have a baby.

LORIAHN'S PURPOSE

The most rewarding part of my journey was the moment the parents got to meet their baby for the first time. It was emotional and sweet and the happiest day for everyone involved! Also, getting the privilege to watch this little baby become a toddler, and then a big kid, and just knowing that you helped this little person have this beautiful life. There is nothing else like it!
