“In 1988, former President Ronald Reagan proclaimed October to be National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness month.

Each year over a million families are touched by the tragedy of pregnancy and infant loss. In the United States, 1 in 100 births ends in stillbirth. Almost 1 in 100 births results in infant death before one month of age. 1 in 4 documented pregnancies ends in miscarriage. It is estimated that as many as 50% of all conceptions are lost to miscarriage.

In years past, families experiencing pregnancy and infant loss have had to suffer in silence. Their losses were not understood or acknowledged. However, families enduring loss need sensitive caregivers, understanding friends, and supportive families. Education and awareness are critical to ending the silence and meeting these needs.

The Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness ribbon is a symbol of support. The goal is to educate others about pregnancy and infant loss and to support research to prevent future losses of beloved children.

Remember-Every life is special and every life should be remembered...even the smallest life.”
