I’m taking part in Sands Ribbon Run
I’ve committed to taking part in Sands Ribbon Run which takes place during Baby Loss Awareness Week (9-15 October) for every much-loved baby sadly not here today.
Sands ensure that everyone affected by the loss of a baby gets the support they need and deserve when facing the toughest of times. They campaign for change, provide training for midwives and healthcare professionals, and support research so that fewer babies die and so that less families experience the tragedy of losing their baby. Anything you are able to donate means so much.
Thank you.

My rainbow baby
Wednesday 30th Sep I feel incredibly blessed to have my beautiful rainbow baby, but becoming a mum again has never meant forgetting the babies I lost.I will always remember my missed miscarriages and the little lives that were part of mine, even for such a short time. I often wonder who they would have been, what they would have looked like, and what our lives might have been like if they were still here.
Pregnancy after loss brings so many complicated emotions — joy, love, gratitude, but also grief for the babies who aren't here to grow alongside their sibling. I felt like going through the miscarriages robbed the joy of seeing a positive pregnancy test and just being pregnant in general.
I’m fundraising for SANDS because no parent should have to feel alone in their grief. Their support for families affected by pregnancy and baby loss is incredibly important, and it means so much to me to be able to give something back.
This is for my babies who I will always carry in my heart, and for every family who has experienced the heartbreak of losing a baby.
Thank you so much for reading, sharing, donating, or simply remembering with me.
