This morning we had a service for our little angel which also gave us a chance to grieve for all the loss weโ€™ve had this year. We had 6 star balloons to mark both babies weโ€™ve lost and each embryo that didnโ€™t take which we then released.

I feel truly grateful that we were able to have this today as I know itโ€™s not often โ€˜earlyโ€™ loss is recognised, it was heartbreakingly beautiful but has also given us a chance to have some closure on this year.

I feel a relief that our precious baby was recognised for the short life they lived, Iโ€™m now really trying to focus on Christmas and having some โ€˜time outโ€™ to enjoy with my Hubby before we jump on the rollercoaster for round 5.

Thank you all once again for the support, this journey we are all on is one not many understand. I wish you all so much luck wherever you are on yours, remember to never lose hope ๐Ÿ’œ

So beautiful!! I'm welling up here, my heart breaks for everything you've been through. Your so strong and you should be so proud of that!

Losing a baby, no matter what stage is something nobody should ever have to face, and so very sad some people face it more than once. They're forever in our hearts โค๏ธ

I'm so pleased this has helped give you some closure.

Thinking of you and sending a big hug your way ๐Ÿ˜˜ ๐Ÿ’ž Xxx

This is so beautiful and sad. I'm very sorry for your losses. There is a song that says that children do not die, but that they go to heaven to gather stars until some day we see them again. The balloons reminded me of that. I'm sure your babies take care of you from where they are.

I hope things improve soon. A hug.
