Never underestimate the impact your continued care for your loved one’s precious baby has on them. Not only during the holidays, but at any time. They will always remember with glowing hearts those who honor the deep love they will always have for their baby.

We often talk about our loss as women, but our spouses go through the loss also.

They’re the ones holding us while trying to hold themselves together.
The ones hiding their own pain because they think they have to be strong for us.
The ones who grieve in silence, because no one asks how they’re doing.
They carry the same heartbreak, just differently, quieter, deeper, often unseen.

And while we mourn what was lost inside of us,
they mourn what was lost beside us.

Grief doesn’t look the same on them, but it still lives there,
in the way they stare a little longer at baby aisles,
in the way they pull us close at night,
in the way they say nothing when words wouldn’t be enough anyway.

Because they lost a piece of their heart too,
they just don’t always get the space to show it.

When we have experienced such a great loss that changes everything about us, our loved ones notice and may say things such as, “I want you to get back to yourself,” or, “You have changed.”
Yes, you have changed. Something so tragic changes who we are, how we think and how we interact in our world. Part of grief is learning how to live with this new normal that we never wanted to be in and never imagined.
Reach out if you need extra support. We are here for you as you learn how to live in your new and changed world.

There’s still a baby of mine I’m not picking out a costume for this year.

The stores are full of tiny pumpkins and fuzzy little animal suits, and part of me still aches when I walk past them.

Because there should’ve been one more.
One more outfit laid out on the bed.
One more photo taken on the porch.
One more little laugh echoing through the night.

So if you see me smiling while I pass out candy or dressing up my other babies, just know I’m also holding space for the one I can’t.

Because no matter how much time goes by…
there’s still a baby of mine I’ll never stop missing.

For some of us, the holidays aren’t just filled with lights and laughter,
they’re filled with quiet ache.
We see the cute costumes, the family dinners, the stockings hung with love…
and we smile, but our hearts break a little behind that smile.
Because this season isn’t just about what’s here,
it’s about what’s missing.
The baby we never got to hold.
The child we’re still praying for.
The tiny chair that will stay empty again this year.
So if you see a mama who seems distant or teary this holiday season,
show her grace.
She’s surviving a time of year that magnifies her loss.
She’s doing her best to celebrate when her heart is still healing.
To the mothers with invisible motherhoods,
I see you.
You still belong in the joy of the season,
even with empty arms.

If your heart feels heavy with loss whether recent or long-ago, named or unspoken, this is your sacred invitation to pause, breathe, and begin again.
