Rainbow Milk Teether/Necklace

If you have faced post-loss lactation and have shared that milk:

with a surviving multiple
with a surviving older sibling
with another baby, either through pumping or direct wetnursing

Or if you are a mother nursing your subsequent baby, and this has brought you into a new facet of your grief, as you mourn that nursing relationship not had with your beloved, deceased baby.

Or if you are a bereaved mother who has not experienced lactation at all, but who wants a beautiful keepsake that honors your very real motherhood and all that you are grieving.

the Rainbow Milk library of stories and photos is a place to share your experience. We’d be honored for you to share your stories and photos of nursing your surviving baby(ies), subsequent baby(ies) or pumping your milk to share it.

Related: the Universal Breastfeeding Symbol to honor our experiences.

Heidi Faith and her daughter, Evelyn, are both rainbow babies.

Stillbirthday has a gorgeous rainbow nursing/teething necklace!

The Rainbow Milk nursing/teething necklace is a natural and beautiful accessory that will match every outfit you wear, and will give your surviving or subsequent baby a perfectly fitting grip to hold as he or she snuggles in close with you.

You can get your rainbow teether/nursing necklace, plus engraving, for only $28!

We’re calling this the Rainbow Milk necklace – as your subsequent/rainbow baby holds to the necklace, they can hold to their sibling’s name as well.

Sarah-Anne’s mama was pregnant with triplets and lost all 3 babies. All girls, they collectively refer to them as ‘Hope’. This photo was taken by SBD doula student Canary Lane Photography during Sarah-Anne’s first birthday party; it was rainbow-themed.

After you receive your necklace, have a photo taken of you wearing it while nursing or holding your subsequent/rainbow baby or surviving multiple, and send your photo to Heidi.faith@stillbirthday.com with “Rainbow Milk” as the subject line. We’d love to see it!

MamAmour birthing & breastfeeding dolls have created a special stillbirthday triad – a breastfeeding mother and baby (she’s wearing her Rainbow Milk necklace!), but also a smaller baby. This baby who is specially made to be a little different represents so many of our journeys. A baby born via miscarriage. An “invisible” sibling. However this triad may speak to your experience, MamAmour has this special set for you; just ask them for the stillbirthday set.
