AnswerHello Amy from the U.S.,
This is not the forum for finding a surrogate for you. I'm afraid you will have to contact a surrogate agency. There are lots of them on the web and are located all over the U.S. Once you contact them and contract them, they will find an appropriate IVF center for you to go through the procedure. Keep in mind that IVF with a surrogate is very expensive and Medicaid will not cover it. In fact, most regular insurances don't cover it either. Once cheaper option would be for you to find a family member or friend that would volunteer to be your surrogate. If you don't have to pay her a fee, that would save you some money. The IVF with surrogate will cost around $15,000-$20,000, not including the surrogate/agency fee or the prenatal care.
Good Luck,
