Baby Loss Awareness Day

Today is Baby Loss Awareness Day in the UK. To mark this, there was a service at the chapel in Ipswich hospital yesterday and Clare and I decided to would be good to attend. We lit a candle for Theo and they gave us each a white rose. Although sad, it was comforting to share the service with people who could relate to what we are going through. It was nice to see that a couple of the midwives who we had met on the ward were there as well.

We were also given a balloon which we are going to release today. I think 7 - 8pm today is the actual time for rememberance so Clare and I plan to light a candle and say some prayers for Theo then.
