This might seem strange to many, but a reality for many who have experienced a pregnancy loss.

I am grieving the baby that I’ll never get to hold, while his little sister is kicking me as I write this.

I’m one of the lucky ones, as I know many of you are still waiting for their rainbow. And as someone who has experienced reaching due dates while not pregnant with a rainbow, I know how that feels too.

Either way, due dates without a baby in your arms suck. You might be “okay” leading up to it and then it’s like a punch in the gut and it’s here. You wonder who that baby would have been ✨

So on his due date, I’ll give myself grace and allow myself to feel, I wonder who he would have been. While simultaneously basking in gratitude for his little sister who is growing inside making her presence clear.

Did you do anything special on your due date? 💛✨🌈
