Today is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. 💙🩷
A few weeks ago, the Johns Hopkins Dome was illuminated pink and blue as we gathered to talk about recurrent pregnancy loss.
But today isn’t about the lecture.
It’s about the families behind it.
The pregnancies that were deeply wanted. The babies who are remembered. The parents who had imagined a future that changed far too soon. And the grief that doesn’t necessarily disappear simply because the world around you moves forward.
As a fertility physician who cares for families experiencing recurrent pregnancy loss, I know medicine doesn’t always have the answer to the question families understandably ask: “Why did this happen?”
That uncertainty is one of the reasons continued research, compassionate care, mental health support, and simply acknowledging these losses matter so much.
We remember. Today. Every day. 🕯️
If you’d like to honor a pregnancy or baby today, you are welcome to leave a 💙, 🩷 or 🕯️ below—or simply share this with someone you want to know you’re thinking of.
