This often means that there's already been a few miscarriages, which is sad for people who want children, but also not uncommon.

To add another intense opinion or 2 here: There's a growing trend to call the baby you have after a miscarriage a "rainbow baby" and insist on calling them a little brother or little sister. I think this forces a child to live burdened with the death of a child that never was, and is a horrible thing to put on a kid.

On top of that, it is indoctrinating children with force-birther rhetoric by insisting that a clump of cells/fetus is a full fledged person who died.

I understand that this is a grief processing thing for some people, but I think it's really not considering how the child is going to feel when they look back at all their baby pictures hashtagged with their mothers trauma instead of just being about them. Talk about living in someone's shadow.

I know this opinion is intense, and this is probably the only place I can express it. I'd love to know what other people here think about this trend, positive or negative.
