National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day
National Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day is observed on October 15 each year. This day is dedicated to honoring the memory of babies who were lost during pregnancy, at birth, or shortly after. It serves as a time for families to remember their little ones and to raise awareness about the emotional impact of such losses.
The day encourages parents, families, and communities to come together in support of those affected by pregnancy and infant loss. Many participate in remembrance activities, such as lighting candles at 7 PM local time, creating a wave of light across time zones to symbolize unity and remembrance.
