Celebrating all those rainbow families/ those wishing for a rainbow.

My third baby was a surprise. We thought we were done having babies, until that test came back positive. My heart was so full. A third baby. I couldn’t wait to tell my daughter and son. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I was seven weeks when I lost my third baby. And the pain was so shocking. I’d only known my baby for three weeks and yet the love was so big. A love so big makes a loss sting so much more. I molded a special place inside my heart for my third baby and it was so hard to say goodbye. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I had my fourth baby nine-and-a-half months after I lost my third baby.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
My rainbow baby was the most beautiful brightness in the darkest hours after my miscarriage. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
My third baby taught me how fierce love is, how devastating loss can be, and how amazing surprises are. My fourth baby, my rainbow baby, taught me strength, hope, and trust.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Sending my love on rainbow baby day. 🌈 ⁣
