Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day

International Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day occurs every October. Parents and families across Australia have the opportunity to honor their babies who passed away from stillbirth, miscarriage or postnatal causes.

Every October 15th, Australian bereaved parents will pause to remember their babies who’ve died, joining families from the United States, Canada, Norway, Italy and Kenya in observing International Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day.

This annual day of remembrance is a significant one on Sands’ calendar, honoring the approximately 106,000 thousand babies who lose their lives to miscarriage, stillbirth and newborn death each year.
On the evening of the 15th the International 'Wave of Light' occurs at 7pm, where bereaved parents and their families light candles in remembrance.

“Parents consistently tell us that opportunities to acknowledge their baby’s life and to simply say their name are so meaningful to them and their families,” said Sands’ Chief Executive Officer, Jackie Mead.

“We know that recognising and validating bereaved parents’ experiences and honoring their grief helps families cope with and adjust to life without their baby as best they can,” she said.

“International Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day is a powerful opportunity to do so as a community, whilst also encouraging more public conversations about what are still quite taboo topics.”

We see a lot of miracles and dreams come true but also unfortunately we see heartbreak and sometimes there is just no words....💔

"I felt like I failed, because I didn't know how common miscarriages were."
