Parents of lost babies and potential of all kinds: come here to share the technicolour, the vividness, the despair, the heart-broken-open, the compassion we learn for others, having been through this mess — and see it reflected back at you, acknowledged and understood.

Thanks to photographer Xin Li and to artist Stephanie Sicore for their respective illustrations and photos.

ttc | pregnancy | birth after loss > Baby boy arrives

Sophia and Matt's baby boy arrived safely on tuesday morning. Sophia will write more later but wants to let you know she is doing fine. His name is Jonah born at 3.64kg and he is looking real good but will keep being monitored for the time being. Sophia says it's an 'emotional fruit salad' but it's going well.
Love from Sophia's husband Matt

Came in here looking for this news and here it is. So so happy for you Sophia and your family. And yes it's an emotional time - take care of yourself. And most importantly suck all that newborn goodness up and store it away.

Sophia and Matt-- Give that beautiful boy some extra kisses from all of us, will you! So glad to hear of his safe entrance. Be gentle with yourselves. I hope these next few weeks are slow and soft and lovely and give you time to feel and think and let yourselves be in the moment.
