The holidays look different for everyone. ❄️

On Christmas Eve, when things are quieter and feelings tend to sit a little closer to the surface, we’re sending love to those in waiting, those missing someone special, and those far from home.

To those holding hope through a longer journey, giving quietly behind the scenes, carrying both joy and worry, and holding space for someone else’s miracle—we see you.

And to anyone who simply needs a little extra love this Christmas: it’s yours.

From all of us at Shining Light Baby, we’re holding you close this holiday season. ✨

How involved can we be during the pregnancy?

Every surrogacy journey is unique, and the level of involvement during pregnancy depends on what feels right for both you and your gestational carrier. Some intended parents love joining doctor’s appointments, ultrasounds, or sharing regular check-ins—while others prefer a more formal arrangement, focusing only on key updates and milestones throughout the pregnancy.

What matters most is having honest conversations early on, setting expectations together, and making sure everyone feels comfortable. The best experiences come from mutual respect, clear boundaries, and open communication every step of the way.

Ever wondered if both dads can be biological fathers through surrogacy? Here’s how it works:

First, an egg donor is selected. Then, each dad provides a s***m sample so eggs can be fertilized separately, creating embryos from both dads. These embryos are then used in separate transfers—either at different times or with two surrogates—so each dad can be a biological parent.

While the idea of twins can be appealing, pursuing separate pregnancies is the safer route and gives each embryo the best possible chance.

Your family’s safety and well-being always come first.

There’s something special about the first day of winter—the calm, the stillness, the chance to slow the world down for a moment.

We asked the Shining Light Baby team how they make the most of these cozy winter days. For some, it’s curling up with a good book or baking something sweet. For others, it’s bundling up for a walk outside, movie marathons, or simply enjoying a warm drink by the window.

No matter how you spend it, winter is a reminder to pause, savor small comforts, and find joy in the simple moments.

This is the kind of moment that makes the season feel even more magical. 🎄💛

Baby Girl “C” arrived just in time to make this Christmas truly unforgettable, and we’re so honored to share a photo of this beautiful moment with Shannon. There’s something extraordinary about bringing a new life into the world during the holidays—a season filled with hope, gratitude, and the promise of new beginnings.

Congratulations to the new parents on the birth of their precious baby girl and the start of so many new traditions, cherished memories, and moments of pure joy. May this holiday be the beginning of a lifetime filled with warmth, laughter, and the love of family.

From all of us at Shining Light Baby, wishing your family a Christmas that’s every bit as special as this new arrival.

Pro Tip: Celebrate small wins

Surrogacy is full of ups and downs, and it’s easy to get caught up waiting for the big milestones. But sometimes, it’s the small wins that keep you moving forward—a smooth checkup, sticking to your med schedule, a moment of encouragement from your intended parents, or just waking up feeling a little better than yesterday.

Don’t let these little victories pass by unnoticed. Every step matters, and every positive moment is a reminder of the strength and heart you bring to this journey. Take time to acknowledge your progress, no matter how small it might seem. Write it down, share it with someone who gets it, or simply take a quiet moment to be proud of yourself.

You’re doing something extraordinary, one day at a time. Celebrate the journey as it unfolds.
