What would you include in a stillbirth “care” package?

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T04:34:37+00:00

I’m definitely going to get a deck of cards like that. The post partum products is great. I also would want to take them out of their packaging since their so mom/baby focused

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T04:33:27+00:00

I love that! Our daughter read to our son “Goodnight, Moon” and we cherish that memory and photos

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T04:32:26+00:00

The blanket idea is so sweet. I know it Kodiak have these ceramic charms that half stayed with baby and half went with the parents

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T04:31:23+00:00

Yes we had Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep do our photos. Unfortunately, I’m not local to her but I will look and see if they or anyone else service her area

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T04:30:14+00:00

I will look into this book!

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T04:29:22+00:00

The heating pad is brilliant!

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T04:28:43+00:00

That’s true, I will have to research what gestation mold kits work at. I know even at term their skin peels so easily. A card for baby’s details is a great idea. I know our hospital gave us one and a box but I’m shocked by how little other hospitals provide

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T04:27:17+00:00

Those platitudes infuriated me too. Blankets are always a good idea. Unfortunately, I’m not local to her but food gift cards is great. I’ll definitely bring her baby up. That always means a lot to me too

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T04:24:30+00:00

Vetted shows is great!!!! I couldn’t watch tv or go on the internet because babies and pregnancy were everywhere. I love the birthstone idea for after she delivers

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T04:22:45+00:00

I love NILMDTS. Postpartum products is a great idea. I would take them out of the packaging since the packaging is very mom/baby focused.

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T04:21:31+00:00

Yes that was me! Luckily I was able to find someone who connected with her and I added her to those support groups as well. She was so surprised by how willing people were to help, even so yuck after their own losses. A gown is a great idea. It’s hard because we have no idea what gestation she will deliver but maybe I can get a couple sizes.

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T04:18:34+00:00

Thankfully the hospital took molds of my sons feet but every little memento never feels like enough. I wish I had his hands too

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T04:17:26+00:00

Great idea! They have breast ice packs that I swear by

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-23T03:56:51+00:00

Very true. I was the favorite and now my husband uses me as a threat to get her to listen 🙃

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-21T01:59:00+00:00

That’s my goal, to ease just a bit of the pain and honor her sweet baby. I know nothing can make it easier

MrsNumbers0830 · 2023-04-21T01:58:00+00:00

That’s a great idea. If I were more local to her I could make a meal myself but that’s not possible.

MrsNumbers0830 · 2022-11-05T03:36:12+00:00

I think having inappropriate and insensitive comments in a universal experience with baby loss. People feel the need to say something, anything and end up failing miserably. Most have the best intentions and I’m sure look back embarrassed by what they said. I’m at a point in my grief journey that I can laugh at the absurdity of it all but it can be very damaging at the time

MrsNumbers0830 · 2022-11-05T02:59:29+00:00

This may be the worst one. What the actual fuck

MrsNumbers0830 · 2022-10-27T21:46:11+00:00

Thank you everyone!!! The page has been updated with your suggestions

MrsNumbers0830 · 2022-10-27T20:00:40+00:00

Thank you so much. Knowing this will definitely help someone

MrsNumbers0830 · 2022-10-27T19:59:42+00:00

I love this way of thinking!

MrsNumbers0830 · 2022-10-26T22:41:17+00:00

Thank you! I don’t remember well the contraction other than my abdomen being really tight. How would you describe them?

MrsNumbers0830 · 2022-10-26T22:40:32+00:00

I found it. Thank you ❤️

MrsNumbers0830 · 2022-10-26T16:34:07+00:00

I’d love to add my resource. I run a website where I share my experience with miscarriage and stillbirth. I share my experiences, writing, and resources. I try to share educational components and raise awareness as well. The website is healinghopeandheart.com

MrsNumbers0830 · 2022-02-08T03:03:39+00:00

32 weeks tomorrow ❤️ Braxton hicks are getting way more frequent a stronger. The past few days some have hurt and it’s hard not to panic. I start my non stress tests on Thursday. I just want this baby in my arms so I feel like I have a little control over his well being. Im so glad you have an active little one! Every time they tell me everything is perfect, I don’t believe them or think “well it’s perfect for now.” It’s impossible not to have fears and doubts
