Pregnancy loss question

[Anonymous]

My friend recently lost her baby at 23 weeks and is looking for ways to honor her baby's brief life. I think she's specifically interested in something physical, like a bracelet with his named inscribed on it, to keep with her or in her home. If you have any ideas of something that might be comforting to her, please let me know. Thank you.

I’m so sorry for her loss. One idea is Molly bears. I wear a ring and my husband has a necklace in remembrance of our son.

So sorry for your friends loss. It is heartbreaking.

I agree on Molly Bears. I gave a pen with his son's name engraved on it to my brother when my nephew passed away.

I'm so sorry for your friend's loss.

I don't know if she did anything specifically with the baby's remains, but when my DW lost our daugther at 17 weeks, we had her cremated. We kept the ashes - still have them - but there are people who take the ashes and turn them into jewelry. I bought my wife an engraved necklace with a quote that was significant to our daughter, along with a separate piece that had our daughter's and our living son's birthstones. The march of dimes march for babies is coming up - she could sign up for that in honor of her baby.

Those are just a few things that come to mind.

I’m so sorry for your friend’s loss. My heart goes out to her.
I’ve had many miscarriages and bought myself sentimental ornaments from this Etsy shop to help me through the holidays and honor my babies: https://www.etsy.com/shop/EverythingAngelsShop/.

I had some of my son's ashes turned into a glass necklace pendent.

My sister in law got me a Jizo statue after my stillbirth - which are a Japanese tradition around lost children - I have it in my room and gives me a little solace and reminder everyday - saying from a perspective of 12 years later. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=jizo&ref=nb_sb_noss_2
Hugs to your friend.
