What’s a rainbow baby? (Legit question I do not have kids so I’m ignorant here)

Wishing you an absolutely boring and standards delivery.

Please do me a favour m, if you’re not already speaking with a counselor or therapist, please do so after you have baby. With every loss your chances of PPD or PPA increase. I had two losses, and while I don’t think I had either, I had some really complicated feeling navigating the first few weeks and months even of being a mom. You have this absolute joy of baby, the grief and trauma of your losses, your hormones, and the regular sleep deprivation and the huge adjustment to having a new born. I wish you luck, and please please remember to take care of yourself so you can show up in healthy ways for your family.

that’s great but it looks like you’re escaping a forest fire
