Keepsakes andMemory Making

It's important to acknowledge that your unique experience of pregnancy and baby loss will influence the memory making you had access to in the immediate hours and days following your loss.

Although those precious hours cannot be replicated there are still many ways you can continue to honour and remember your precious baby into the future with mementos, keepsakes and memory making rituals and traditions. This list serves as only a small starting point to the many wonderful ways you can foster the very special connection you have with your baby.

Also included below are a number of reputable businesses, many of which are owned and operated by fellow bereaved parents, that stock heartfelt and beautifully created baby loss products.
