A baby born after the loss of a baby, is referred to as a Rainbow baby. A twin born who could not stay is referred to as a Sunset baby where the surviving twin is referred to as a Sunrise baby.

This week we remember all babies born sleeping, the ones we've carried but never met, those we met, but couldn't hold, those we've held but couldn't take home, the ones that came home but couldn't stay.

At least one in four pregnancies end in a loss. The majority of us out there have, or knows someone who has suffered the loss of a baby. Help break the taboo around miscarriage, still birth, Infant loss and SIDs.

If you don't know what to say to someone who has experienced a loss, just ask them
"How are you doing?"
It's an open question which allows the person to say anything from;
"I'm okay"
To
"I'm not great actually"

"You are not alone - It's okay to talk about it."
❤️💛💚💙💜❤️💛💚💙💜❤️💛💚💙
"Our family is one in four"
❤️💛💚💙💜❤️💛💚💙💜❤️💛💚💙
If the loss was that of an adult, or elderly person, people would expect you to talk about them and remember them out loud.
