Comfort and a hand of friendship for those affected by stillbirth

In loving memory of our precious daughter born sleeping on 4th September 2014 - Lily Eloise # # # Hello and welcome to any new people! # #

We are an angel mummy and daddy who know how it feels and how much it hurts. Its been over 8 years for us so our grief has morphed and changed shape - its not as intense as that initial year or so but sometimes we are still finding our way of coping. Some days are easier than others. All the time its been a steep learning curve!!! Something we never ever dreamed would happen and still are trying to understand! We started this page in Dec 14 - 3 months after losing our precious daughter Lily, I felt I had to do something on here in her memory and as another outlet for the grief. Not only that but a page other angel parents would find just a little bit of comfort! And so that's how the name came about too - because as an angel parent you need comfort but you also need to find others who understand and who can say "me too!" You need a friendly page where its more than ok to talk about your angel! Too express all the many feelings we go through - both good and bad! We know that it helps to talk about it and to talk about our daughter, to seek others going through the same thing, to find comfort in any way possible. We know other bereaved parents feel the same. The devastation of losing a baby is enormous! Having support and comfort helps and we hope that this page helps someone!! That would be amazing, even just 1 person would make it worthwhile! But we also hope that it helps us through our journey and grief. That it expresses our love for our daughter and finally to feel like I'm doing something worthwhile as I have a desire to connect with others going through the same thing and if it helps anyone then that's the cherry on the top! We also want to make Lily proud of us!!! Lily is our firstborn and that makes it incredibly hard!! Her story breaks many hearts as I went all the way to 9 and 1/2 months pregnant before losing her at 40+16 due to clinical negligence at Birmingham Womens hospital!!!! We fought for answers and justice for her as we did both an nhs complaint as well as taking legal action!! She will always be remembered, loved and missed so much!! "YOU ARE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING I KEEP INSIDE MY HEART!!"

�After a scary anxious pregnancy in 2019 we welcomed our precious rainbow Charlie. A brother to Lily, his angel sister definitely watches over him! Pregnancy after loss was so tough and in the end I had to be signed off work due to anxiety. We couldn't believe we had a healthy baby boy � and thanked Lily for helping her brother get here safely. Having a rainbow is truly amazing, wonderful and a beautiful gift... but it does not mean your grief ends! They often remind us of what we've lost with our angels and all the milestones they should have got to meet like them! There are 4 hearts in our family and our home but you can only see 3 people

This is beautiful and fitting 💓

My little rainbow lights up my world. 🌈

But my heart holds more than one story. A piece of it will always belong to the baby I lost.

Before this joy, there was pain.
Before these smiles, there were tears.

Before these firsts, there were hopes that
never came true.

People see me holding my baby and think it’s just happiness.

I carry two journeys—one that never had the chance, and one that finally arrived.

My rainbow baby didn’t erase the past.
My angel baby is still a part of me, always remembered, always loved.

Both made me a mother.
Both shaped my heart.
Both will live in me forever. ❤️

This year's new decorations for Lily's Christmas tree 🎄💖🎅

Every single year we always get her something to add to the tree - it's lovely chance to get to do something pink / something girly / beautiful and it means more than just a decoration. It's love, it's many emotions all wrapped up, it's a message to her, it's an expression words can't say, it's a parental feeling - one of the few physical things we can do for her, sometimes the item represents something about her or has a significant meaning or sometimes its just christmassy. I love her little white tree looking all amazing for her. To be honest we are running out of room after all these years of adding to it but that's ok. I'll always want her to be remembered and show our love ❤️ After 11 years of missing her and also having our rainbow son who's now 6 - we may not do as much as we once did for Lily and sometimes that makes you feel guilty and abit sad. But then I have to remind myself it's actually totally fine because our grief journey is not where it once was - it's completely changed over time, grief morphs and changes shape. We can't possibly be where we was even a few years ago, let alone 11 years ago when it was raw! Now we have to live in this time and space and Lily would want the main focus to be on her rainbow brother as she knows he's amazing and she watches over him! She knows she's loved and missed, even tho I feel I have to keep reminding her - I don't think that ever goes away and that's ok. I hope she understands that even tho we may do abit less these days it doesn't mean we miss her any less! I remind her this too. The love, the missing her, the wishing - its all still there ❤️ it's just less messy, less intense, and less raw. We've got used to it - that may sound odd unless your an angel parent yourself and further down the line as we are. You do get used to incorporating the regular loss and and the going through your traditions at key times of the year. But you've also learnt what things help / don't help and what things speak to your heart, some things you used to do -may not feel right anymore or just naturally stopped. You've also learnt you can't force anything. There some things you just need to do and some you can now let go abit more. But it's NEVER about
" getting over it " because there is no such thing!!! Just know if your traditions, actions, ways you honour your angel change over time - this is totally natural and normal !!! No bereaved parents can live in the past and still be in that moment- we have to carry on with them in our hearts in order to survive! We don't move on! We no longer need to take things one step at a time, we are rehearsed in our ways, in our things we do. We are more comfortable and confident. We are more sure than ever how we feel. We are able to see things differently. Lots has changed, lots of life has been lived since - the good, the bad and the ugly. But one things is always for sure the love never waivered! 💯 💓
