Here is my Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness ribbon.
I myself have lost a baby due to an ectopic pregnancy, and I have friends/family who themselves have experienced some kind of loss. Be it early pregnancy, later pregnancy, stillbirth and more.
Every year on October 9th to the 15th is Pregnancy and Infant Loss week. The week ends on the 15th October with a worldwide Wave Of Light where at 7pm everyone lights a candle in memory of their baby and everyone elses all over the world.
I was asked to make some bits for Pregnancy and Infant Loss for some friends to buy in memory of their angel, unfortunately due to bad timing, I never actually got anything made in time :( I am hoping that if I work it out properly then next year I will be ready for the event, and even raise money for charity.
Some of my bits that I make on my facebook page are often donated to a few friends whom raise money for SANDS (Stillbirth And Neonatal Death Charity) I do help when and where I can <3
