Part 5 of our story. We spent a few days looking for urns. We decided on a tiny urn with a galaxy print. We wanted a space themed nursery so we thought it seemed fitting. Next was how we would bring her to the funeral home. I didn't want to take her in Tupperware. She deserved better than that. Matt spotted the gift my nephew gave us at our wedding. Bride and Groom candies in a blue box. It was the nicest box we had. Little did we know when we received it that a gift from our happiest day would be used during our worst. I took an Alabama tank top, one I got years ago and was holding for when I had a daughter, and folded it in the box. Next, Matt and I picked out a picture of us (in Firebirds gear with Fuego) so she would always have her parents with her. Matt printed the picture while I arranged the elephant hankie to hold her. We tried a few different options the night before we took her in, wanting to find the best positioning. The next day, we left work early. When I got home, I cleaned her up as best as I could, wrapped her in the elephant hankie, and nestled her in the box on top of the tank top. Next, I placed our picture over her, took a few pictures, and closed the box. Matt drove us to the funeral home, with me clutching her little coffin the whole time. It was so hard to let her go, even though I knew she was in caring hands. We picked her up about a week later. The funeral home placed her in her urn and printed out a certificate for her since she was too young for a death certificate. The attendant also shared her story, assuring us it gets easier with time. I didn't believe it at the time, but I do now. I still get pangs of guilt on bad days, usually triggered by something insignificant. Just a few weeks ago, I broke down crying after hitting a curb. But holding the plum necklace, her size when she passed, and thinking of her, knowing she is happy wherever she is, never knowing pain, makes me feel better. It helps remind me that it wasn't just a dream, she existed and is loved by her whole family, who miss her every day. #miscarriageawareness #miscarriagesurvivor #miscarrage #pregnancyloss #pregnancylosssupport #stillborn #stillbornsupport

Hi new followers šŸ‘‹šŸ¼ Itā€™s been a while so I thought I would reintroduce myself. My name is @lakenn_dean I am Grayson Stoneā€™s mama. I created this foundation after my son was born still on April 26th, 2022 due to a small placenta. Grayson was our first and only child and I am now pregnant after loss with his baby sister. She is due in just a few days. And I know Grayson would be the best big brother! Itā€™s crazy to think itā€™s already been 2 years without my son. He is so loved and missed every single day as all of our babies are. A little about me: My husband Jordan and I got married May 15th, 2021 and we found out we were pregnant with Grayson in November. We were so excited to be parents! My husband and my faith has been my rock throughout this entire experience. Iā€™m 27 years old, I am a teacher, and a wife, and most importantly a mother to 2 beautiful babies. I love all things music, animals, and travel and Iā€™m from Georgia! Besides my full time job I do animal rescue and the foundation when Iā€™m not working. Looking at the foundation long term, I have many goals and projects that I hope to accomplish with more funding as we grow. Iā€™m so thankful for all the amazing mamas Iā€™ve met along the way. Although I hate the circumstances of us meeting, I know we are each others biggest support systems and we get each other šŸ©· Thank you all for your constant support and kind messages. You have no idea how much it means to me. I love you and all your precious babies and Iā€™m always here for you šŸ©· #stillcounts #stillbornangel #stillborncommunity #stillbornangel #stillborncommunity #stillbornsupport #stillbornstilloved #babyloss #infantloss #infantlossawareness wareness #infantloss support #babylossawareness #babylosssuport #grief #grievingmoms #angelmama #angelbaby #bereavedmother #stillbirthsurvivor #stillbirthbreakthesilence #stillbirthmommy #pregnancyandinfantlossawareness #endpreventablestillbirth #measuretheplacenta #empowerpregnancy #bornsleeping #stillmatters #lossmama #pregnancyandinfantloss #pregancylossawareness #stillbirthawareness #stillbirth #stillbornangel #stillborncommunity #stillbornsupport #stillbornstilloved #babyloss #infantloss #stillbirth

Can we talk about how grief is two parts? It's like being hit by waves over and over. You grieve them in every way. Wishing that they were a part of your everyday life and there for all of your special moments. All the good times and holidays. You picture yourself standing at their graduation day, cheering their name. Teaching them to drive, seeing them off to college. You thought you'd be dancing at their wedding, welcoming grandchildren and watching them become parents. You grieve for all these things that you don't get to be a part of. But then, there's the other part too. You grieve for them. They will never graduate. They will never drive. Go to College. They will never be married or become parents. Their life was lost before it even began and THAT part of grief, as a parent that just wants the WORLD for their child, is the worst part of it all. They had every right to experience all of the little things. All the big moments. That right to life was taken away and it just isn't fair. #Stillbornandinfantlosssupport #Grief #stillbornsupport #grievingfamilies #MiscarriageSupport #ectopicpregnancy #miscariage #SIDSSupport #TFMR #StillbornSupport #SAILSSupport

1 year ago today I ā€œmovedā€ into the hospital for the 7 days leading up to my induction. It was both helpful and nerve racking. Helpful because I got to listen to my babyā€™s heartbeat twice a day, had nurses checking up on me 24/7 but nerve racking because of all the triggers. I was in the room right next to where I delivered Emma. The 9 month pregnant mama next to my room had the purple butterfly up her doorā€¦ stillbirth. Really?! What are the chances? Or is it really that common? Being woken up to several code blues during the night also didnā€™t help my anxiety. It was a very memorable week to say the least. I am forever grateful for all the nurses who always calmed me down when I panicked. At this point I was counting down the hours until the 30th, not knowing it would actually be the 29th, because ā€œwhy notā€ is what I said when they offered to induce me at 36w6d which was a whole other experience. šŸŽˆfoley balloon up there was not the nicest feeling then going through contractions until 6cm, then getting the epidural only for it to end up in a C-section. šŸ„² what a šŸŽ¢ of emotions.

Part 4 of our story The bleeding and pain lessened over the next few days. I didn't want the pain to end because that meant she was really gone. But I also wanted it to stop. The guilt was overwhelming. Matt and I saw my therapist on December 20th. It was helpful but still painful. Lots of tears but she gave us some tips to help remember our baby. Things like memorial jewelry and planting a tree in her memory. We left feeling better but I still felt guilty, thinking I had missed seeing her. That night, a little past midnight, I passed her. I remember holding her fragile body, not knowing what to do. I cried and apologized to her for not protecting her like I should. Matt was asleep so I woke him up, crying saying I don't know what to do. He was groggy but held me until I regained composure. I Googled what I should do in this situation and found an NIH article saying to put the remains in water or saline and refrigerate until able to take in. I placed her in some Tupperware we had filled with cold water and placed her in our fridge. The next day, I called around to different funeral homes to find someone that would cremate her. I found one that would cremate that young and started filling out the paperwork. I couldn't help thinking that we were supposed to be planning a nursery, not a funeral. We completed and returned the paperwork. They said the next step was to pick out an urn. #miscarriageawareness #miscarriagesurvivor #miscarrage #pregnancyloss #pregnancylosssupport #stillborn #stillbornsupport #ttcafterloss #coachellavalley #coachella #indio #palmspringsca #laquinta #cathedralcityca #palmdesert

Part 3 of our story The cramps continued to get worse. December 16th was the worst so far. I woke up and just felt wet. I knew I was bloody, so I tried to get to the bathroom to take a cleanup. I leaned against the shower wall, barely able to stand and in the worst pain in my life. I let the water flow over me, creating a reddish hue as it mixed with the blood. I frantically checked every clot, desperate to prevent our baby from being washed down the drain. While I knew it was a long shot, I had to try. Afterall, my OB said that chances are I wouldnā€™t even notice the baby passing. I donā€™t know how long I was in there but eventually; I left the shower. I put on something comfy and laid in bed. The kitties played nurse while I cried and dealt with the worst pain in my life. I also placed a pickup order for ultra absorbent pads and new period underwear, something I swore I would never ask my husband to pick up for me. He came home from work with my order and some chocolate and just laid in bed with me. He was and is so kind while I deal with the loss. The next few days were difficult to say the least. Wondering what I did wrong. How I could have changed what happened. But I know this wasn't my fault and I couldn't have prevented it. #miscarriageawareness #miscarriagesurvivor #miscarrage #pregnancyloss #pregnancylosssupport #stillborn #stillbornsupport #ttcafterloss #coachellavalley #coachella #indio #palmspringsca #laquinta #cathedralcityca #palmdesert

Part 2 of our story December 11th was my 12-week scan. My husband met me at the office since I was supposed to go to work afterwards. The tech told me I needed another transvaginal. It didnā€™t make sense to me; shouldnā€™t she have been big enough? But Iā€™m not a technician so I tried to brush it off. The bubbly technician went super quiet. Just taking scans and moving on. This was all new to me, but I couldnā€™t help but feel like something was wrong. Shouldnā€™t it be lots of baby pictures, listening to the heartbeat, just happiness all around? Just like in the movies? When finished, she let me know she would be right back. Iā€™m of course panicking and start crying. Iā€™m trying to hold it together while my husband is comforting me. Both of us hoping for the best: me saying somethingā€™s wrong, him telling me that everything is ok. The doctor comes in and starts grilling me for dates asking me again and again if Iā€™m sure I got my dates right. I start bawling and tell him yes, I saw her heartbeat in the ER. He says, ā€œOh, well these things happen. Wait 2 months and you can try againā€ and left the room. It was all a blur at this point but Iā€™m sure I cried even harder. My husband tried his best to stay composed. Iā€™m still not sure how he managed. The technician was super sweet, apologizing and saying itā€™s not our fault. We somehow made it to the car, and I called out of work, letting them know the baby was gone. Then came the hard parts. I called my OBā€™s nurse and let them know. She was able to get me an appointment for the next afternoon. Then came the family group text and the group text to the few friends that knew: ā€œBabyā€™s gone.ā€ Then, I canceled what little Etsy orders I had left, saying the same thing each time ā€œI miscarried, I donā€™t care about the refund. Just please donā€™t ship my order.ā€ Thankfully, each were able to cancel the order. One even caught it at the Post Office. #miscarriageawareness #miscarriagesurvivor #miscarrage #pregnancyloss #pregnancylosssupport #stillborn #stillbornsupport #ttcafterloss #coachellavalley #coachella #indio #palmspringsca #laquinta #cathedralcityca #palmdesert

Part 1 of our story. We got pregnant fast, within 2 months of us trying. I couldnā€™t believe it. I took multiple pregnancy tests to confirm. I told my husband when he got home from work. He was so excited, he couldnā€™t even speak, just pure joy for the both of us. We called our family that night and let them know not to make any plans for the end of June 2025. Everyone was so excited. We started planning, with family buying and looking for baby things for us. I made sure to do everything ā€œrightā€. I quit drinking, quit smoking, quit caffeine and lunch meat, tried to eat better, pretty much everything that Iā€™ve heard to avoid. I was even between jobs, so I didnā€™t even have work stress. Mid November, at 8 weeks, I got COVID. I was fully vaxxed, even had COVID in 2023. I didnā€™t think I would have to worry anymore, right? I called my OB/GYN and asked what I should do. They told me to go to the ER. As soon as my husband got home from work, we rushed to the ER to get checked out. They ran bloodwork and did a transvaginal ultrasound. There wasnā€™t any sound, but I saw the baby and saw the heartbeat. But my husband wasnā€™t allowed back with me, and they couldnā€™t print pictures, so he didnā€™t see her. The hospital said the baby was doing fine and gave me some advice. My husband went with me to my 10-week appointment. They had an old ultrasound machine. We couldnā€™t see much, just a little dot on the screen, but everything looked fine according to the doctor. He also let me know I would have plenty more appointments, so I let my new job know. They were understanding and excited for me. I started spotting December 2nd with cramps starting shortly after. Anxiety stricken, I called my OB. The nurse let me know that itā€™s normal. Hell, my mom even said she spotted with my sisters and me. I tried to ignore the panic. I even bought a little stuffed elephant hankie for her. I was constantly looking up miscarriage rates, praying I wouldnā€™t be another statistic. #miscarriageawareness #miscarriagesurvivor #miscarrage #pregnancyloss #pregnancylosssupport #stillborn #stillbornsupport #ttcafterloss #coachellavalley #coachella #indio #palmspringsca #laquinta #cathedralcityca #palmdesert

All things considered; Iā€™ve been lucky with how people have treated me. Most people, including strangers, have been nothing but kind when Iā€™ve told them we lost our baby. However, sometimes people will be hurtful intentionally or unintentionally. The unintentional say things they mean well. Things like ā€œYou can always try againā€ or ā€œitā€™s super common.ā€ I try (sometimes failing) to take those comments with grace. These people mean well but often donā€™t know what to say. I mean, what can you say that will make it better? Nothing, right? One of my sisters kept saying how horrible the miscarriage was while I was venting. Yes, itā€™s horrible, but sometimes I just need to let it out. I let her know saying that isnā€™t helping and she immediately apologized and went back to just saying Iā€™m sorry. I try to take these kinds of situations with grace. Intentionally hurtful behavior, however, is just cruel. Not everyone in our lives is a kind person. We need to set firm boundaries with these people, even if it means blocking them and moving on. From my experience, they just want a reaction so they can victimize themselves. My aunt is intentionally hurtful. We havenā€™t spoken in years, but she made sure to wish me Happy Motherā€™s Day, knowing full well it would hurt me. This woman didnā€™t bother saying congrats after the wedding or even saying happy birthday. My therapist suggested I ask why she would send that, so I did. My aunt immediately started backtracking and saying her toddler grandbaby sent it. Iā€™ve gotten texts from my nephew as a toddler and it was always a string of gifs, emojis, and nonsense. This wasnā€™t her grandbaby. The hard part is telling which is which. Only you know your relationship with the person. Only you know how it made you feel. What can be hurtful for some is healing for others. Set boundaries with others and let them know if they are being hurtful. Donā€™t be afraid to cut people off if they choose to continue being hurtful. #miscarriageawareness #miscarriagesurvivor #miscarrage #pregnancyloss #pregnancylosssupport #stillborn #stillbornsupport #ttcafterloss #coachellavalley #coachella #indio #palmspringsca #laquinta #cathedralcityca #palmdesert

Physically healing was so difficult but now comes the mental healing. This can be the hardest part of the journey. You may feel overwhelmed, heartbroken, or uncertain about the future. Or you may feel something else entirely. Remember: Your feelings are valid. Here are a few tips to help during the mental process: ā€¢ Allow yourself to feel the full spectrum of emotions that arise, including grief, sadness, anger, guilt, and confusion. There is no right or wrong way to feel. ā€¢ Reach out to friends, family members, or support groups who can offer empathy, understanding, and a listening ear. Your loved ones will not think your grief is a burden. ā€¢ Find meaningful ways to honor the memory of your lost pregnancy. I bought a necklace with a plum pendant, the size of my baby when she passed. ā€¢ Be kind and compassionate to yourself. Allow yourself to rest when needed, set boundaries to protect your emotional well-being, and avoid setting unrealistic expectations on yourself. There is no ā€œdeadline.ā€ ā€¢ Share your feelings and experiences with your partner openly and honestly. Allow yourselves to grieve together and support each other through the ups and downs of the healing journey. Just because they didnā€™t feel the physical pain, doesnā€™t mean they arenā€™t hurting as well. ā€¢ If you're struggling to cope with the emotional impact of pregnancy loss, consider seeking professional support from a therapist or counselor who specializes in grief and loss. There is no shame seeking professional help. My therapist helps me so much! Healing after pregnancy loss is a deeply personal and individual journey. Remember that healing takes time, and there is no set timeline for grief. Be gentle with yourself, honor your feelings, and lean on the support of others as you navigate the ups and downs of the healing process. You are not alone, and with time, patience, and self-compassion, you will find moments of peace and resilience amidst the pain. #miscarriageawareness #miscarriagesurvivor #miscarrage #pregnancyloss #pregnancylosssupport #stillborn #stillbornsupport #ttcafterloss #coachellavalley #coachella #indio #palmspringsca #laquinta #cathedralcityca #palmdesert

Happy Heavenly Birthday to all of our sweet May Babies!!

Healing from pregnancy loss is so hard. If you havenā€™t yet, schedule an appointment with your OB/GYN. They are your best resource. If you are in severe pain or heavily bleeding, go to the Emergency Room immediately. Be patient with your body as it heals. The healing process can take 1 to 2 months. Make sure to listen to your doctorā€™s advice. Here are a few tips to help during the physical process: ā€¢ Listen to your body. Rest and allow it to heal from the trauma. I was barely able to stand on the worst day. ā€¢ Ask your partner or another trusted individual to help with errands or anything else you may need. ā€¢ Binge watch your favorite movies and TV shows. I watched mostly Studio Ghibli and Disney movies. ā€¢ Stock up on your favorite sad time snacks. (Cheez-its and chocolate for me!) ā€¢ Grab a heating pad to help with the cramps. They are intense but will pass. Just remember: go to the ER if it gets extremely painful. ā€¢ Snuggle with your partner, pet, or your favorite stuffed animal. While my husband was at work, my cats played nurse. Even my angry kitty let me snuggle. Remember ā€“ You can get through this.

I started Coachella Valley Pregnancy Loss Support Group a little over a month ago. My husband and I lost our first pregnancy in December 2023 and it devastated us. I am fortunate enough to have a great therapist who is helping me heal. She helped me realize that talking about it eases the pain and that I feel better when I help others. While I am not a therapist (I work in accounting!) I am a good listener and am able to tell our story. Sometimes, knowing you're not alone is the best salve. I strive for this to be a free resource. While my OB/GYN was a fantastic resource, I still had so many questions after finding out. Mainly regarding how to cope. I'm hoping our loss will help others who are going through the same pain. The group will also help keep the memory of our baby alive. Since the group is still young, not many have heard about it. However, I still go to the local Starbucks in Indio on Monroe and 42nd most Tuesdays and wait for anyone that needs to talk. Please join me on this journey. We can process this pain. #miscarriageawareness #miscarriagesurvivor #miscarrage #pregnancyloss #pregnancylosssupport #stillborn #stillbornsupport #ttcafterloss #coachellavalley #coachella #indio #palmspringsca #laquinta #cathedralcityca #palmdesert

How to begin shifting your mindset during life after loss. Grief is a lifelong journey, so finding ways to help navigate the pain to help us find some sort of understanding or dare I say, peace with it matters. It doesnā€™t mean it will go away or youā€™ll move all but you can certainly find some healing. I know itā€™s possiblešŸ™šŸ»šŸ’• Journaling comes in many forms and is such an important piece in processing and healing. Read through the slides to see all the ways. . . . . . #healingafterloss #lifeafterloss #bereavement #infantloss #rainbowbaby #affirmations #dailyaffirmations #positivemindset #personalgrowth #personaldevelopment #griefjourney #griefsupport #CopingWithGrief #HealingTools #stillbornsupport #growingthroughgrief #growthroughit #supportcoach #griefcoach #familyloss #friendloss #parentingthroughgrief #pregnancylossawareness #angelbaby

Journaling can be a powerful tool for working through grief in several ways: 1. **Expression of Emotions 2. **Reflection and Insight 3. **Honoring Memories 4. **Self-Exploration and Growth Journaling can be a therapeutic while navigating grief, offering a way to express emotions, gain insight, honor memories, and find meaning in the midst of loss. Read slides for details. If you need a journal, I created the Growing Through Grief prompted journal just for you! Comment, ā€œJournalā€ and Iā€™ll DM you the link to get one! šŸ’ . . . . #healingafterloss #lifeafterloss #bereavement #infantloss #rainbowbaby #affirmations #dailyaffirmations #positivemindset #personalgrowth #personaldevelopment #griefjourney #griefsupport #CopingWithGrief #HealingTools #stillbornsupport #growingthroughgrief #growthroughit #supportcoach #griefcoach #familyloss #friendloss #parentingthroughgrief #pregnancylossawareness #angelbaby

We have a team of volunteers who read and review each book we send in our care packages. Itā€™s important to us that we shepherd well, ensuring our resources are theologically sound and contain Biblical encouragement that ministers to the families we serve. We appreciate this quote from Jackie Gibsonā€™s book, You Are Still A Mother, because it honestly and vulnerably acknowledges the weight of infant loss. Did your hospital provide you with bereavement support when you left the hospital without your child?

So grateful a few of my Ian daffodils survived our concrete. šŸ’›šŸ’› One of the questions I get asked most is, ā€œWhat can I give someone who lost a baby?ā€ I actually wrote a blog post so I could help and give a comprehensive list - everything from books to jewelry and sunset pictures. To the mamas who know loss - that feeling never goes away but it does get easier and youā€™re not alone. šŸ’›šŸ’› . . . . . . . #stillborn #stillbornstillloved #stillbornawareness #stillbornbutstillborn #stillbornbutstillloved #stillbornsupport #stillbornangel #lifeafterloss #lifeafterlosingmychild #lifeafterlosscanstillbebeautiful
