Cremation re: PAL

in Late Term and Child Loss
I have struggled to explain how we have Coraline's ashes to her 4 y.o. sister. I thought this article was incredibly helpful: https://stillstandingmag.com/2013/06/explaining-cremation-to-young-children/

 
EDD 1/8/10 - our sweet sunshine DD born 12/30/09
EDD 2/15/14 - Stillbirth at 21 wks 10/02/13
EDD 8/12/15 - MMC 1/12/15
EDD 12/24/15

    Thank you for sharing.  I don't have living children but I was always wondering what to tell any future babies about their older brothers.

    My daughter is 3 and was aware that I was pregnant with her little sister. She hasn't seen her sister's urn. I've been nervous for when she does notice it and asks about it. Thanks for sharing.

    We don't have any other children yet, but when we do, we will talk a lot about Q, so I'm sure that this topic will come up at some point.  I thought this was a great way to talk about cremation, thanks for sharing.  And to be honest, I felt comforted by her description.

    Thank you for sharing. It'll be a little while before we'll be explaining this, but I wasn't sure how to even begin.
