Honouring Loss & Sharing Light

Honouring Loss & Sharing Light

Honouring Loss, Sharing Light: Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day

Today, on Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day, we gather to honour the little lives that left us too soon. This day is not only a moment of reflection but a time to extend love and light to the mothers, fathers, and families who carry these memories in their hearts every single day.

At Remind Her, our mission is to create a space where these experiences are acknowledged, and no one feels alone on their journey through loss and healing. As a mother of angels myself, having experienced the profound loss of two miscarriages, I know firsthand the depth of this pain.

Every day, I feel the presence of my angel babies through signs that remind me they are still part of my life. It’s these moments that inspire me to share awareness, so no mother feels the weight of grief alone.

Words of Comfort from Our Community:

Grief after pregnancy and infant loss is incredibly personal. While each mother’s journey is unique, the universal need for compassion, understanding, and support binds us together. Recently, we asked our Remind Her community to share advice they would give to mothers currently experiencing loss, and the responses were filled with love and wisdom:

  • “Take it one breath at a time. Healing has no timeline, and it’s okay to feel everything.”
  • “Allow yourself to grieve in your own way—don’t feel pressured to follow anyone’s path but your own.”
  • “Lean on those who offer support, and don’t be afraid to ask for what you need.”
  • “Don’t downplay it. Take the time to process it as a loss… because it is.”
  • “My biggest advice would be to talk—talk to friends, family, colleagues, anyone you feel comfortable with. Talk to other mothers and be there to support each other. The more we talk, the more awareness there will be, and the less we will feel the need to blame ourselves.”
  • “If you are going through the unimaginable, please know that everyone grieves differently. There will be people who never understand your pain, but when you find the ones who do, don’t let them go. Lean on them, share stories, and say your baby’s name. Their existence matters and always will!”

These words remind us that grief doesn’t follow a set path, and every feeling—whether sadness, anger, or hope—is valid. For any mother walking this path today, know that your grief is real, and your strength is undeniable. You carry the love of your angel babies with you, and that love will never fade.

How to Support Someone Experiencing Loss:

Knowing how to support someone through pregnancy or infant loss can feel overwhelming, but small gestures of love and care can make a world of difference. 
Here’s what our community shared on how best to offer support:
  • Sometimes, just being there is enough. Hold space without needing to say the ‘right’ thing.”
  • “Don’t offer solutions, offer your presence—be the shoulder they can lean on.”
  • “Continue showing up, even after the immediate loss. Grief doesn’t disappear after a few weeks.”
  • “Help them feel validated with their feelings“
  • “Say something daily that will lift them up and make them feel brave even when they feel like everything is falling apart.”
  • “Reach out and check-in often“
  • “Send flowers or a self-care package”
  • “Make sure that they feel loved and compassion even when they are trying to blame themselves.“
  • “As a mother of two angel babies through IVF, my best advice to support those going through loss and infertility treatment is to ask them what they need from you right now. Is it comfort, a warm meal, a listening ear?"

These gentle suggestions highlight the power of presence and patience. Whether it’s listening without judgment or offering a quiet moment of solidarity, your support can be a lifeline for someone navigating loss.

My Journey as a Mother of Angels:

As a co-founder of Remind Her and a mother of angels, I carry my own experience of loss with me every day. After two miscarriages, I learned that grief doesn’t have a set path—it weaves its way through life, sometimes in waves and sometimes in whispers. But through it all, I’ve found comfort in the signs I see from my angel babies. These signs remind me that while they are no longer here physically, their souls are always a part of me.

For every mother who has experienced loss, I want you to know that your grief is real, and your strength is undeniable. Sharing our stories helps create a space for healing, and my hope is that in reading this, you feel a little less alone.


Introducing the Mother of Angels Affirmation Print:

In support of mothers walking this difficult path, we created the Mother of Angels affirmation print. This piece is dedicated to honouring your strength and perseverance. It serves as a gentle reminder that, while the grief of loss is part of your journey, so is the unbreakable bond with your angel souls.

Designed to bring comfort, this print is not just a reflection of your experience—it’s a tribute to the love that remains forever. If you or someone close to you needs a reminder of their strength, this print is a gift from our hearts to yours.

Join the Wave of Light

We invite you to join us in the global Wave of Light. At 7pm, light a candle in remembrance of the little lives lost too soon. Whether you’ve experienced loss yourself or are lighting a candle for someone you know, this moment is a way to unite in love and memory.
Together, let’s create a community of light and love that stretches across the world.

For every mother who has experienced loss, I see you. I know your pain, your love, and your longing. Together, we can share these stories, find comfort in each other, and raise awareness for the many mothers who walk this path.

Today, and every day, we stand with you.

 

With love and light,
