October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. October 15th is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day. It is not recognized my my Province yet, but I plan to change that :-)
I was reading a few other blogs and noticed that people were doing 30 posts in 30 days to recognize this month. I wanted to get behind this idea, I think it's a great one!
The idea started with Angie on Still Life With Circles, she got it by combining a few different ideas from other blogs. If you would like to learn more, please check out her blog :-) I decided to follow along when I noticed that several other blogs that I follow are also doing the 30 posts in 30 days! I think it's a GREAT idea and I think that as many of us as possible should try to jump on board with this.
So, even though I am starting late, I am still going to do the 30 posts in 30 days and I invite everyone else reading this to do so too!
These are the questions:
Day 1 - a song that reminds you of your child, or one that you can't listen to anymore and why.
Day 2 - a movie that helped you get through the hard times, or one that jumps out at you after your loss.
Day 3 - a television program that helped you either get through hard times or that moves you.
Day 4 - your favorite book. has it changed since your loss?
Day 5 - your favorite quote.
Day 6 - twenty things that calm you.
Day 7 - a photo that makes you happy.
Day 8 - a photo that makes you angry/sad.
Day 9 - a photo you took since your loss.
Day 10 - a photo taken over 10 years ago of you and how it makes you feel seeing it now.
Day 11 - a photo of you recently and how it makes you feel seeing it now.
Day 12 - something you are OCD about.
Day 13 - a fictional book that is meaningful to you since your loss.
Day 14 - a non-fictional book that is meaningful to you since your loss.
Day 15 - what you like about your house.
Day 16 - a song that makes you cry (or nearly).
Day 17 - an art piece (drawing, sculpture, painting, etc) that moves you.
