Sorry I have not been very active on this board but I was looking for some help/thoughts...Has anyone seen examples of birth announcements (After rainbow baby is born) where the first born who passed away at birth is mentioned? Is that just something that is not done..I guess I am having a hard time with wording ideas and trying not to forget that this is not our first child, that we have an angel in heaven..any thoughts/suggestions?

My SIL and DH's aunt and uncle all had late losses last year. On their Christmas cards they put something like "Merry Christmas from the ________ Family" Love, Mom, Dad, Child, angel, and Child. You could do something similar for a birth announcement.
I have seen this brought up before, but not recently. I think I remember ppl saying something like, "dan, sue, and LO in heaven welcome LO". Or "dan and sue welcome LO. Lost LO is smiling down on their new little sister/bother". Some ideas. I'd cross post this on PAL because some of them may have recently figured this out.
