The Importance of Communication Between Surrogates and Intended Parents

At ACRC Global, we’ve seen firsthand how clear and open communication can transform a surrogacy journey into a truly positive and rewarding experience for everyone involved. Building a strong relationship based on trust, understanding, and mutual respect is key to navigating this life-changing process. When both the surrogate and the intended parents feel aligned and supported, the entire journey becomes smoother and more meaningful.

From the beginning, open dialogue sets the stage for a strong partnership. Discussing expectations, preferences, and even concerns helps both parties establish a shared understanding of what the journey will look like. Topics like the surrogate’s comfort level with communication, the intended parents’ desired involvement during the pregnancy, and details about medical procedures or birthing plans are just a few examples of how early conversations can foster alignment and reduce stress.

Here are some key tips for maintaining open communication during a surrogacy journey:

  • Start with clear expectations: Have honest conversations early about medical plans, communication preferences, and levels of involvement.

  • Set regular check-ins: Schedule updates through calls, texts, or visits to keep everyone connected and informed.

  • Be transparent about challenges: Address unexpected events or questions openly to avoid misunderstandings.

  • Show mutual appreciation: Acknowledge each other’s roles and contributions throughout the journey.

  • Prioritize empathy: Approach every conversation with patience, kindness, and understanding.



Throughout the pregnancy, regular check-ins are an essential part of keeping everyone connected. Intended parents often tell us how much they appreciate staying involved, whether through video calls, photos of pregnancy milestones, or in-person visits (if both parties are comfortable with that. This connection helps intended parents feel reassured and excited, while also fostering a deeper bond with their surrogate and their future child.

For surrogates, communication is equally important. Knowing that their role is valued and their voice is heard makes all the difference. It’s not just about updates or logistics—it’s about emotional support and feeling like an essential part of something bigger. Many of our surrogates share that having consistent, respectful communication with their intended parents makes their experience more fulfilling and rewarding.

Of course, surrogacy journeys can come with unexpected situations or questions, and open communication helps everyone navigate those moments with confidence. Whether it’s discussing medical updates, addressing financial arrangements, or handling surprises, being transparent and collaborative ensures that trust remains strong. At ACRC Global, we always encourage our intended parents and surrogates to approach these conversations with empathy and understanding, knowing that they’re working together toward a shared goal.

One of the things we love most about this process is the relationships that often extend beyond the birth of the baby. We’ve seen surrogates and intended parents maintain lifelong friendships, bonded by the incredible journey they shared. It all starts with communication—honest, open, and kind.

At ACRC Global, we’re here to support both surrogates and intended parents every step of the way, ensuring they have the tools and guidance they need to foster meaningful connections and navigate this journey with confidence and joy. If you’re considering surrogacy, know that we’re here to help you build not just a family, but also a relationship built on trust, understanding, and shared purpose.
