In the aftermath of the death of a baby, the holidays are, predictably, periods when families may experience more intense waves of grief.

Acknowledging that the absence of the baby who died is still felt is a way of affirming that this child was wanted, loved, and is missed.

The holiday season weighs differently on everyone. While gatherings can be joyful, they can also be overwhelming, triggering, and complicated.

However you are experiencing the holidays this year, be gentle with yourself.
