National Rainbow Baby Day is a day to recognize and remember the babies we have lost due to miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant death. It's a chance to honor the memory of these children and reminds us that there are still moments of beauty, even in our pain.
Many couples who experience such losses go on to conceive and give birth to healthy babies, referred to as "rainbow babies." National Rainbow Baby Day offers these couples an opportunity to celebrate the joy and love they are able to create following their sorrow.
Fertility issues and pregnancy loss are often seen as taboo subjects that people don't feel comfortable talking about. By acknowledging National Rainbow Baby Day, we can help start important conversations about these topics that can reduce stigma and offer support for those who are struggling with them.
