I ordered a Sophie Bear to remember my beautiful angel girl Lylah.
She was a born sleeping due to an undiagnosed vasa previa at 1.40am on the 03/11/2019 (41 weeks gestation) weighing 3.79kg. Not a day goes by where I don’t think of you, I love you so much my beautiful angel girl. ?

Eli, I hope you’re in heaven playing and chasing rainbows with our Samuel. Samuel was born @ 19w3d on 21.03.20.
To Eli’s family, this precious gift has spent many nights close to my chest as I hug the bear and think of our Angel baby. Thankyou for this gift in such a scary and uncertain time in our lives.

To the beautiful parents of Lewis,

I am so sorry that Lewis is not earthside with us. There is nothing right about losing a child, but you have taken your loss and spread some love at a time when your heart was hurting the most.
There is a special corner of my heart that I never knew existed until I lost my daughter Stella to stillbirth in January 2020. It is a corner that is filled with the names of babes taken too soon. Lewis will live in my heart forever, and I am so honoured to be able to say his name. Lewis will be a treasured part of the memories I have of my daughter and his name will be spoken often.

Thankyou for sharing your love for Lewis with me in the package of a small fluffy bear.

Sending love,
Krista x

Thank you for the gift of a bear in Hunter’s legacy. I’ve no doubt Hunter was gorgeous and is much loved. I hope you were able to remember him and quietly celebrate his recent first birthday.

Knowing the bear was gifted by another bereaved family gave me comfort when we lost our Sunny at 6.5 months on 23.04.2020.
I long to have Sunny in my arms again and Hunter’s bear sits in our lounge as a reminder to us and Sunny’s 5 and 3yrs old siblings of the community of families who have experienced loss like we have.

We will light a candle for Hunter and Sunny in their memory.

Big hugs and thanks to Hunter and his family x

Thank you so much for the beautiful gift in honour of Sophie. Our daughter Evelyn was born sleeping on April 20th, 2018 at 24 weeks gestation. We left the hospital with empty arms and it is such a comfort to receive this bear now, just after her 2nd birthday and in time for Mother’s Day this year.

I recieved this bear as a keepsake after my 3 consecutive losses, I never recieved a BOH package in hospital so requested a bear directly from BOH, I had lost an ectopic pregnancy at 7w6d, had a spontaneous L&D of my first Son Samuel Reece at 20w, and an early miscarriage at 5w4d by the time I recieved this bear. This bear sits cuddling a heart with representations of my ectopic, early miscarriage and also my 13w3d loss that occured after I recieved this bear. I will honour your babies as I honour mine
