A rainbow baby, a baby born after a pregnancy loss, is truly special. For all parents, pregnancy is a time of worry and stress, but also of joy and wonder. Add in a previous pregnancy or child loss and all of these feelings are amplified. What better way to celebrate them than with one of these perfect rainbow baby names.
Remember you’re not alone in your grief. I lost my very first pregnancy in 2014 (you can read my story here: My Miscarriage Story). Finding and talking to other people who have gone through the same thing is very helpful, either in person, on facebook, or any other way of talking.
