Late Term and Child Loss

Aaron's Photobook

I ordered a book from Shutterfly because I had a $20 promotional card. I used all my bump pics, ultrasounds, and pics of him from the hospital. This is what it looks like ( I hope the link works ).

  • Love it! Aaron is beautiful and I love the photobook. I just made one for my babies too, but I never thought to put ultrasound or bump pics in it. Hm...I think I need to make another! 

     I don't know about you, but sometimes I look at the book and cry, so upset that these pictures are the only ones I have of my babies, and other times I smile, so happy that I have these pictures.  I hope the book gives you some comfort.

  • Thank you! It makes me cry and smile as well. It's a way of remembering him and if/when we have another they'll have a connection to their big brother. So far a lot of family that has seen it cried, but I remind them not to because he's always with us, forever :)

    Oh I love this!  Thank you so much for sharing.  I am in the middle of making one for my twin pregnancy and to include pictures of my daughter since we have them on CD but never printed them out.  It is so special to make something like this and so cathartic.  It turned out beautiful and Aaron is so precious.  I agree that it will be really special for Aaron's younger sibling someday too - I know it will be meaningful for our surviving twin.
  • What a sweet book.  I had started making one as a tutorial for my MIL (she wanted to make one), then I stopped.  She had made one for us but she didn't have all of the ultrasounds and bump pics.  I might have to make another.
    BFP#1: EDD 10/11/11 Our sweet boy Robin was born 7 weeks a little early on 8/23/11 due to HELLP syndrome, unfortunately he was diagnosed with Trisomy13 and left us on 8/29/11. BFP#2: EDD 10/13/13

  • Shutterfly is amazing if you have them accessible through a computer and I have my pics saved every which way possible from prints to CDs to flashdrives. I never want to lose them and I will cherish this book forever.

  • Beautiful. I had the same thing and created a book for my Logan. I was so glad I did!

  • That is beautiful. I'm planning to start one of these asap. What an amazing way to remember your angel.
  • Oh this is a beautiful book, it has me in tears.  You have so many ultrasound pics, your so lucky to have taken so many bump pics.  I'm glad these memories bring you peace.

    Thank you for sharing.
