Mother's Day can hold a lot.

For some, it’s a day of celebration.
For others, it’s a quiet ache that sits just beneath the surface.

If you know a mother who is loving a baby or child she cannot hold, don’t forget her this Sunday.

Say her baby’s name.
Send a message.
Let her know she’s not alone in this.

And if this is you—we see you. Your motherhood matters. Your love matters. Today and always.

If this resonates, consider sharing or sending it to someone who may need it. ✨

Today is International Bereaved Mother's Day, a day we acknowledge the many mothers who hold their precious children not in their arms, but in their hearts. We want you to know that we see you, we see the love you continue to carry, and understand how difficult it can be to feel whole on this day.

Please know that however you choose to walk through this day, we are holding you close as you do. Be gentle with your heart, and honor your motherhood in whatever way feels right to you.

While a child's life may be brief, we know that a mother's love endures forever.

In addition to providing free brochures to hospitals, we often include items they can also gift to families after their baby passes away. Swaddles are one of the most requested items.

Many times, pregnancy and infant loss is sudden and families arrive to the hospital with an empty bag. We know firsthand that any item that a bereaved family leaves the hospital with becomes a cherished keepsake.

We wouldn’t be able to provide these keepsakes without your help.

To see a list of swaddles we would be grateful to accept as donations, comment SWADDLE and we will send you a link to these soft, muslin blankets. 🤍

All items can ship to:
Star Legacy Foundation
6400 Flying Cloud Drive, Suite 225
Eden Prairie, MN 55344

Please include your name, email and/or mailing address on the gift receipt so we are able to express our deepest gratitude. 🤍

Thank you for supporting a bereaved family in need.

We also earn a small commission for each sale which goes back to one of our goals of supporting families for free after the loss of a baby to stillbirth, pregnancy loss and infant loss. 🤍

INTERNATIONAL BEREAVED MOTHER’S DAY

Every year on the first Sunday in May, today, International Bereaved Mother’s Day honors mothers who have lost a child. It’s also a day to recognize women who cannot be a mother due to infertility or other health reasons.
