Obviously skip if you are having a bad day.
A friend from the IF boards just lost her baby 2.5 weeks short of viability. Any ideas on something to send her? She previously lost twin girls around 18 weeks so I was thinking of something that could have all three names or birthstones (even though 1 birthstone would be repeated). Looking for specific links to a product you have experienced with if possible, but will take any recs. And any ideas that aren't in the categories I mentioned too.
Thanks Ladies.

I'm so sorry. I can't imagine. addymac gave you some good ideas. Is there another way to help? Is there a sunshine mission going on or anything?

Yeah, there is a sunshine mission as PP said. I was brainstorming ideas on how to honor all 3 girls because when I was talking to lemon she said she felt bad that she wasnt aware last year with the twins and didn't do anything.
I did donate to the SM, but that was when she was just in the hospital hoping to make it to viability. Then with the turn events I'm just trying to do something more.

I have a living locket (like Origami Owl but mine is from Etsy sellers) that includes a PAIL ribbon charm as well as other charms important to me. It is a precious reminder.
There are other pieces I have found and liked, but they have Christian themes, so are only appropriate for someone who holds the same beliefs. Etsy has these as well as non-religious options in spades.

Mine was just one that I found and liked. It wasn't specifically marketed for loss or remembrance. I kinda didn't want it to inspire questions from people, and with this one most people assume H gave it to me, which he did, but they don't associate it with a child.

I am so heart broken for her. This is so unfair. What about something for her house too? I love the artwork done by Carly Marie: theseashoreofremembrance.blogspot.com.auI have a sunset photo with DS1's name and it's gorgeous. The sunset photos take a few months because of the waitlist, but the butterfly photos only take a couple of days. I would love to help with the sunshine mission. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The artwork of Carly Marie is beautiful indeed, so I would like to second that suggestion. Also really love the memorial necklace/jewelry. Both make precious keepsakes to remember the babies they lost.

What about a little statue? www.etsy.com/shop/TheMidnightOrange?ref=shop_sugg The Midnight Orange makes statues to commentate a loss, and you can customize them. One could be made of her holding all three of her girls. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
