I have just read that today is baby loss day and at 7pm anyone affected by the loss of a baby (during pregnancy, during labour, or just after) is encouraged to light a candle and let it burn for 1 hour. I would like to remember the 3 babies I lost by miscarriage in 2006 and I would like to use the lovely candle emoticon here to do it.
(I am not using a candle in real life as I have 2 kiddies under 5 in the house at the moment and it wouldn't be safe!)

I've just seen this, and don't have a candle in the flat, so I will join my cyber flame with yours

Coming rather late to this:
Ruth Ruhama, died at 10 weeks gestation. May not have been a girl but it helps me to think she was.

for my little thing lost at 9 weeks last year, and grateful prayers and thanks for the posters here who prayed for us then.
