Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month
Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month
October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, as proclaimed by Former President Ronald Reagan in 1988. Officially recognized in the United States in 2006, October 15th of every year is National Pregnancy Loss and Remembrance Day, a special day to honor and acknowledge babies lost to miscarriage, stillbirth, ectopic pregnancy, prematurity complications, neonatal death, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome-SIDS, illness, accidents, and other tragic causes. In addition to your own personal tributes, it is asked that you light a candle at 7pm on October 15th, so that a continuous light will shine around the world in remembrance of our precious babies, gone too soon.
Pink and Light Blue are the awareness colors. We are offering this special jewelry and products in our support of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness.

Bad Memories
Bad Memories
Wow...It's been a year since something tragic happened to me. It was the second worst memory I can possibly remember. For those teens who have ever gotten pregnant, and lost a child. You know how badly you feel. Especially when no one around you understands how upset and depressed you are. People bug you like it's just another day when deep down you know that you will remember this day for the rest of your life.
It used to be so hard for me to talk about the miscarriage. I was 15 and 3 1/2 months pregnant. And I lost it. Today is the one year mark. And I can still remember every detail of it. The time, The place, How I felt, Everything. But it's easier for me now. I accepted what happened, and I just keep reminding myself that it happened for a reason. So please, teens, wear protection. Cause unless you want to live with something so depressing for the rest of your life, it's not worth it.
Dear My Angel Baby,
Dear My Angel Baby,
We didn't have long to spend together,
but you'll remain in my heart forever.
I loved you with all my heart,
right from the start.
But now your looking down on me,
and I wonder what you see:
A mother whose heart is blue,
or a mother that wanted to prove true.
But God took you for a reason,
in that early fall season
I know I'll see you again,
A new life together we'll be able to begin.
But until that day,
all I can say
is dear my angel baby
