Pregnancy After Loss Awareness DayOn February 27, 2019, Georgia Governor Brian Kemp declared March 20 (the first day of spring each year) as Pregnancy After Loss Awareness Day. March 20, 2019 will be the first time this day is proclaimed as such in the state of Georgia. |
The rainbow package with the onesie, hat, blanket, book and more was such a special gift for my husband and I. The journey of pregnancy after loss can feel so isolating and filled with anxiety. This package gave us hope and helped us feel SO comforted and supported by the amazing community of NSH PALS. There aren't enough words to thank you and the program for how you've helped us, and so many other women and families, heal and find hope again through simple gestures like the care package. |

It's been a year since my loss. A year since my sweet little baby, and the sibling of my rainbow baby girl, went to Heaven. When I had my loss I knew no one who had lost a baby. It was hard to talk about it with anyone because not only would they act uncomfortable but because they also didn't have any idea what I was going through. After speaking with my doctor who delivers at Northside about my depression, he mentioned this group - and I'm so glad he did. The women in this group, I'm sad to say, understand the loss and pain of what I was going through. And it helped me. It helped during my pregnancy with my rainbow and all the days I was petrified of losing her. It's such an important group for those of us who have experienced this kind of loss - a loss no one else can ever truly understand. |
