From Brazil & Canada : a pigeon pair

Another SCI family completed, this time with families from both Brazil and Canada

Dear SCI,
Thank you so much for everything that you have done. Our experience was great from day 1. We ended up with two beautiful babies, our little power couple, one boy and one girl. Thanks for the great communication and support along the way, our family is now complete.

Scott, Igo, Matteo and Alyssa.

From the U.S : Recommended by friends and now a gorgeous baby boy

 

It is always wonderful when friends recommend us to friends - there is no higher recommendation than having friends who have had healthy happy babies and a wonderful experience with SCI.  This is just one joyous example from the U.S.

 

 

 

After two couples we know had wonderful healthy babies with SCI, we had the confidence and trust to try ourselves. Nine months after first visiting SCI we welcomed our perfect little boy into the world. We couldn't have done it without the efforts and support from so many.

We had a perfect experience with the surrogacy process and that is a testament to the solid work and care of SCI. We are eternally grateful to our caring surrogate, our egg donor and to Dr. Shivani and her team for making this such a positive process.

 

We can't express our gratitude enough for the trusting care and professional treatment we recieved. Our son will be raised with love and compassion for the amazing Indian women that gave him life, and for all women everywhere.

Thank you SCI a thousand times for taking such special care of everyone involved in this effort. You brought our little guy into the world, and we promise that the world will be better for this special
gift.

 

We wish this family the choicest of blessings and a life filled with light, love and laughter. If you want to find out more about surrogacy, please email us at : drshivanisachdev@gmail.com
 

From Scotland : A wee bonnie lass

Another SCI family completed after a long journey of infertility and trying everything else

Dear SCI,

It is difficult to put into words the feelings of thanks we have to Dr Shivani and all her team for making our dream come true with the birth of our beautiful daughter Emilia. She has settled well into her life in Scotland but she is also the source of many fond memories from our time in Delhi. The culture, the warmth of the people and the many experiences also made it unforgettable and we would love to return.

We would also like to say how amazing the clinic were in dealing with us from day one and for patiently taking an interest in every stage of our journey. Their referral to Poonam and recommendation to use the excellent nurses (special mention to Ruth and Anila) was invaluable.

With best wishes from Scotland,

Neil, Cat and Emilia xxx

Scottish clients are always close to Dr. Shivani's heart as she reiminses with them over familiar places and favourite haunts from her time in Scotland as a gynecologist and obstetrician at Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh.

From Australia: a boy

Another family, another rocky road of infertility to travel, with the most welcoming of outcomes...

Dear Dr Shivani, Meg, Margarita and the Staff at SCI,
The birth of our lovely boy Taj, on 10th November has been a miracle and a dream we never want to wake from.

 Our path has been a very rocky road like many other clients of SCI. We have participated in another surrogacy program in past years but was unsuccessful.     The addition of Taj has had an enormous effect on our family and friends. Everyone who holds him loves him dearly.

The team at SCI go about their business in a professional manner. Waiting for the monthly scans and reports was made easier by the regular updates we received.

Thankyou to everyone at SCI for bringing us a future. We have felt our lives have been 'on hold' for many years until now.

We would like to express our gratitude also to the Indian Government & Authorities for allowing this to occur.
Greg, Lyn & Taj - Australia

We wish this family the choicest of blessing and wish them many years of love, laughter and happiness.

From Australia : a sibling project and a family completed

In March, 2011 this family, after facing the many difficulties with infertility decided to put their faith in surrogacy, now at the beginning of 2013, they are the proud parents of two beautiful SCI babies.

Our family is now complete. We have been blessed with the birth of our second daughter Caitlin - a little sister for Evy. It is amazing to think that our whole journey with SCI only started in March 2011 and now we have two lovely girls to share our life with. (more amazing Is that both girls share the same birthday .. only a year apart!)
 

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Dr Shivani for her positivity and compassion, the nurses at Eden for their great care of Caitlin (born almost 5 weeks early) and the ever helpful staff of SCI. Rachna and Meenu have assisted us to their utmost and seeing the friendly faces of Rahul's Taxi service when we needed help made everything flow smoothly. Mr Jaggi of Tulip apartments provided us with a comfortable and convenient home for our stay and Ms Poonam Jain expertly handled our exit process. Our final and most grateful thanks goes to our lovely surrogate whose willingness made Caitlin's life possible.
 

As our lives move on and we return to our home, our beginnings in Delhi will always be remembered.

Thank you SCI,

from Sander, Fiona, Evy and Caitlin

We wish this family the choicest of blessings and lives filled with light and laughter.

From the U.S : a Lovely Wonder has been born

What a way to start a new year, with a miracle...

Dear SCI & Blogland,

Wow! We honestly are still surprised we are actually, finally parents. We never thought this day would come. Long story short…we have a healthy baby girl. We went through much of the same heartache as many who are reading this blog and we are grateful that our journey has a happy ending. We were given very low odds of success and had basically given up, but Dr. Shivani and the team at SCI made our dream come true. We named our daughter Lovely Wonder because she is truly a natural wonder and we wonder how we ever lived without her.

Dr. Shivani, the team at SCI & Eden Hospital, and our generous and caring surrogate have been beyond anything we ever expected. We are the happiest new parents imaginable.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Craig, Steph & Lovely Wonder

Happy Holidays

From the UK: dreams coming true with our baby boy

After many years on the infertility treadmill, many of our families know a miracle when they see one. Meet one such family...

"Our miracle baby, Jai, came into our family on Nov 16th and our lives changed forever. After much heartache and hardship, we came to see Dr. Shivani in the hope that we too could one day have the child that we have yearned for. 

Our journey started in February 2012 and in November we came to Delhi to be present at the much awaited birth of our child. We will never forget that precious moment when the doctor came in to tell us that we have a healthy baby boy. Jai is everything we dreamed of and more. He's made us complete. We've finally become mummy and daddy.

Miracles can happen, it's happened for us.....it can happen for you.

We look forward to the years ahead as Jai grows, develops and becomes a respectable gentleman in his own right.

Thank you Dr. Shivani and all the team at SCI who made our dream come true. Thank you to our surrogate who will always have a special, respected place in our hearts.

Jazz & Harj. UK."

From the U.S :- a handsome chap

The best of Christmas blessings, a handsome chap to complete this family. Congratulations Greg & Lewis, may the coming years bring you much joy, laughter and happiness.

 

 

We knew this wasn't going to be the easiest thing in the world to do,
but that has never stopped us before. After 21 years together, we
decided that it was high time to start a family. We thought (and
fough)t about adoption. We tried luring a wayward niece to come live
with us to no avail.

We knew something was really missing in our lives. Our good friends in
San Francisco suggested we contact SCI Healthcare. They had a
beautiful baby girl and by all accounts was just perfect.

Nine months ago we arrived in Delhi- shell shocked from the flight,
but ready to start the process. The first try with frozen sperm was
unsuccessful. Dr. Shivani suggested we come back for a live transfer.
We did to great success.

The months passed quicker than I had expected and we once again found
ourselves in Delhi and in the capable hands of SCI. Our baby was
actually born while we were in the air. When we arrived at the
nursery, we looked around and spotted the most beautiful little baby
boy. I know that was ours.

Due to a delay, we had to stay in India a little longer than planned,
but now that we are home, everything is A-OK. Our little boy is happy,
healthy and a handful.

For those of you thinking of doing this, I can tell you their success
rate is very high. I would also suggest that you stay in the nicest
hotels as possible if you are used to nice hotels when traveling. The
Leela Palace, The Frasier Suites (apartments) and the Lalit were
standouts. It helps that there is a very quiet place to go home to,
where the food is excellent and the amenities are many.

Also, DO opt for the nurse program. For about $38US per day you get
round the clock care. This was vital for us as our nurse taught us so
much. (We miss her!!!!)

Thank you Dr. Shivani and your entire staff. While things did not go
100% as planned in our over-organized American minds, in the end, it
was perfect.

Introducing our best Christmas gift ever:
JAPER KALMBACH OTT
Born November 19, 2012
7lbs. 22"

All the best, Lewis and Greg

From Australia: Proud Pappa's and their boys

A traditional story, a couple meet, fall in love and now they have the " happily ever after"...

Dearest Dr Shivani and team SCI,

After so many years of dreaming of starting a family, you helped make our dreams come true.

You and your team guided us through every step of the process with such professionalism, love and care.

Your ISIS clinic, new born hospital and all your programs are of the highest standards, and in our view world leading.

Finding words to express how grateful we feel is very difficult, but you must know that you have brought much joy and happiness to our family and that we are deeply thankful for what you have done for us.

We must especially thank our wonderful surrogate whom carried our beautiful and healthy twin boys through to 36 weeks. She is such a kind hearted and inspiring woman whom we will always keep very close to our hearts for the gift she has given us.

A special mention al to Lalit, Rachna, Neha and Yogita whom were always available to help us and answer our many questions. We must also thank all the wonderful nursing staff at Eden New Born Hospital whom took such good care of our boys.

So a BIG THANK YOU to all of you we are eternally grateful and overjoyed to be leaving India with Felix and Matteo and now the family we always dreamed of!

Daniel, Andrew, Matteo and Felix

We wish Daniel, Andrew and the gorgeous Matteo & Felix the choicest of blessing and life filled with laughter, light and happiness.

From Europe: low ovarian reserve and twins!

One of the challenges faced by many parents is the dreaded low ovarian reserve and whether to try with a self cycle or move on to donor eggs.

At SCI, we always want people to be aware of all the factors that will likely impact on their chances of success so that they can make an informed decision on the best way forward for their family.

This family, after years of infertility treatment in their home country, wanted one last try with their eggs...

 

Dear Dr. Shivani, dearest M., SCI Healthcare Team, Meg and Margarida, Doctors and Nurses at Eden Hospital and Mariamma’s Nanny-team!

We are the happiest people in the woooooooooooorld!!!!!

Somos feliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiizes!

Our twin babies were born at the end of October here in Delhi and we want to thank you all from our hearts to have helped make this possible by your work and dedication!

The two have made their way into our hearts so quickly and deeply – they are the most wonderful creatures – and already have such distinct personality!

We are impressed by how well and professional and prompt your clinic and organisation is working.

We would like to mention that I am a lady with “low ovarian reserve”, according to my AMH and Estrogen levels. Dr. Shivani suggested to us to have an egg donor - but we insisted to try with my eggs.

We decided to have faith in my eggs despite the numbers and statistics – after all you only need 1 good embryo to get pregnant! 

Dr. Shivani did a very good job with the delicate “egg-growing” inside my ovaries. We know this process is rather based on experience and intuition than on science. The laboratory team fertilized and groomed them well.

We got pregnant in the first attempt and now our boy and girl are here!!! Thanks to our dearest surrogate mother, and the expertise of the Dr. Shivani and the laboratory team!

We would also like to mention the communication; it is vital during these 9 months when intended parents are far away. We never had to wait for an answer from you more than half a day and we could even write to you when we were worried about something non medical and would always get an intelligent, helpful and emphatic answer.

After the birth of the babies at Eden hospital, with the doctors and nurses there – and the team of nannies connected with SCI we have always felt in the best hands. The crib and baby bath tub that you lend parents for the time in India is a very helpful indeed,

A blessed and happy couple!

 

We wish this family the choicest of blessings in the future.

From the U.S - the most beautiful sibling project

It is always wonderful when a family comes back and trusts us with a sibling project. A chance to see an SCI baby who is older and introduce them to a much wanted sibling, in this case a wonderful new baby sister.

Dear Dr Shivani and the entire staff of SCI,

We would like to express our deep appreciation to you for helping us make our dreams come true. Looking at our precious new baby and our little girl reminds us of your incredible gift. It is people like you that make the world a brighter place. It has been, and continues to be, an unforgettable and pleasant experience.

From Australia : a beautiful bundle...

As with many of our families, this family spent years struggling with infertility and further years looking into adoption.

We are pleased to say that their journey is finally at an end, another SCI family completed.

Happy Family

We recently were lucky enough to have been blessed by the birth of 2 beautiful perfect baby girls (no bias at all). Words cannot express how thankful we are to Dr Shivani and her amazing team. From the admin staff all the way through to the paediatricians and wonderful nurses who cared for our babies when they were born.

 

After years of disappointment trying natural pregnancies / IVF cycles / adoption courses etc etc etc, our surrogacy experience was the total opposite.

 

At present we are sitting in the Svelte hotel, surrounded by a host of new families, all made possible by SCI. We find ourselves sneaking into the babies room to catch a glimpse of them when they are sleeping and we pinch ourselves everytime.

A special mention to our surrogate who has made all our dreams come true and kept our babies healthy and safe.

 

We can not thank everyone enough
