Rainbow Pregnancy & Babies

What is a Rainbow Baby? 

A rainbow baby is a baby born following the loss of another. In nature a rainbow is something beautiful that follows a storm and is a sign of brighter days to come. A rainbow wouldn't exist without the rain and that mirrors a rainbow baby. It acknowledges the baby that was lost but offers hope for the future.
