Baby Loss Awareness Week takes place from the 9th - 15th October every year and is part of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. The week ends on Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day or Baby Loss Awareness Day on October 15th (the UK and USA have different names for these awareness days/months and we tend to use both).
Baby Loss Awareness Week provides an opportunity for parents, families and whanau to come together to honour and remember the lives of their precious babies and infants.
We acknowledge the lives and deaths of all babies and infants, no matter their gestation, length of life or how they died.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We come together on the 15th October every year, no matter what day it falls on. We meet at the Petone foreshore and light candles, speak words of love and just be with each other as we remember our babies and children.
We hold a memorial service every year as well, but we do that during Matariki in June. Watch out for info about that on our events page and/or our Facebook page.
