Working within the nonforprofit sector means you jump from one thing to another pretty quickly. Alot of behind the scenes hours go into delivering the services that really make a difference to those who are most affected by trauma. Its easy to forget your own reasons for doing what you do. So grateful to Sands for the timely reminder 💖 . . #sands #stillbirth #stillbirthawareness #stillbirthsupport #miscarriage #miscarriagesupport #sids #sidsawareness #support #peersupport #1in4 #infantdeath #bereavedmother #rednose

We return to each other in waves . This made me think of you ❤ . They always tell us parents that grief will wash over us like waves, and it is so true - but as each wave of grief crashes over us, And as the water fans over the shore and recedes back into the ocean The constant movement of the wave shimmers in the natural light, Ever changing. . The water reflects everything - the grief, the warmth and the love that surrounds it. 🌊 . #stillbirth #stillbirthsupport #infantloss #childdeath #sids #sidsawareness #miscarriage #miscarriageawareness #griefandloss

Taking any steps after losing your baby can seem daunting. . I remember sitting in the waiting room of my obgyn for the first time after Claudias death. How their schedule was booked up with women and families walking in and out of the same door as me, but with happy healthy babies in their womb or in their arms. My stomach was still distended from carrying her body and body still ached from her birth, her funeral on my mind. Alone, but with the fishtank next to me, I sat and watched. I didnt actually know if I was going to make it or if I would just quietly walk out, but I suppose the need to be present in the moment, the constant overthinking and needing to have this as a step to be taken propelled me forward. It was so powerful that the sorrow and uncomfortableness needed to be lived in before I could move along the path forward. Plus the uncomfortable realisation that from now on I will always have moments like this. It becomes your choice to put one foot in front of the other even when the fears run deep. Obstacles are everywhere when grief is overwhelming, but its so important to try and not let fear be a barrier stopping your own self care or the way you care for others. Fear and love live in the same emotional space sometimes. ❤ . . #stillbirth #stillbirthsupport #pregnancy #pregnancyloss #grief #miscarriage #sids #babyloss #babydeath #infantloss #family #waitingroom #fears #pregnancyfears #fearandlove #lovequotes #quotes

Thank you to wonderful medicial practitioners today who filled the room with warmth as we discussed the sombre topic of stillbirth. These presentations for @still_aware are vital to build a more empowered and educated view of preventable stillbirth. 6 babies are born without breathe everyday in Australia. Reduce the rate, educate and empower to faciliate change. . . #stillbirthawareness #stillbirth #stillbirthsupport #pregnancyloss #pregnancy #pregnancysupport #babyloss #baby #love #hope #workingmum #momlife
