🌻 The Summer Wait: What Intended Parents Can Do While Their Baby Grows

Summer is often a season of anticipation—waiting for vacations, watching gardens bloom, counting down to long weekends. For intended parents, it can also be a season of profound emotional waiting: the quiet, hopeful stretch of time while your baby is growing in the care of a surrogate.

At Little Miracles Surrogacy, we know how tender this waiting period can feel. You’re filled with love, excitement, and maybe even a little uncertainty. But this time isn’t just about waiting—it’s about preparing, connecting, and savoring the journey. Here are a few meaningful ways to embrace the summer wait.

📖 1. Journal the Journey

Writing can be a powerful way to process emotions and preserve memories. Consider starting a journal to document:

• Your thoughts and hopes for your future child

• Milestones in the surrogacy journey

• Letters to your baby they can read one day

Even a few lines each week can become a treasured keepsake.

🧸 2. Create a Space of Love

Summer is a great time to begin preparing your home for your little one. Whether you’re designing a nursery or simply collecting a few special items, this process can help make the journey feel more tangible. Think:

• Choosing a theme or color palette

• Adding personal touches like books, photos, or handmade items

• Creating a cozy corner for late-night snuggles

✉️ 3. Stay Connected

Maintaining a warm and open connection with your surrogate can be incredibly meaningful. A thoughtful message, a shared update, or even a virtual chat can help you feel more involved and emotionally present. Many intended parents find that these connections deepen their appreciation for the journey.

✈️ 4. Plan a “Baby Moon”

You may not be carrying the baby, but you’re still becoming parents—and that’s worth celebrating. Take a weekend getaway or plan a special day just for the two of you. Reflect on your journey, dream about the future, and soak in the joy of what’s to come.

🌞 5. Embrace the Season

Let summer be a reminder that growth is happening—even if you can’t see it every day. Go for evening walks. Watch the sunset. Celebrate small joys. Your baby is growing, your family is forming, and this season of waiting is part of the miracle.

To All the Waiting Hearts: You are not alone. You are not forgotten. And your love is already shaping the life that’s on the way. 💛
