Our Baby in Our Hearts is intended to be read to young children, offering mindful support as they navigate the loss of a baby sibling to stillbirth or miscarriage. The loss of a baby before birth can be especially challenging for parents who must grapple with their own deep sorrow while witnessing the grief experienced by their young living children. In such situations, parents may feel a sense of helplessness, unsure of meaningful ways to guide them toward healing.The touching story of Grayson and Ivey’s journey through grief gently introduces mindfulness exercises to help young hearts cope with big feelings. Through exercises like silly balloon breaths to bring calm, wiggling toes to begin the unraveling of stuck emotions, tree pose to discover steadiness and strength, visualization to bring loved ones closer, and using affirmations as powerful healing reminders, children and parents gain tangible tools to navigate the storms of grief. With compassionate words and engaging illustrations, Our Baby in Our Hearts serves as a comforting companion, reassuring families that, with time and mindful presence, love has the power to heal even the deepest wounds.Featuring 26 gentle watercolor illustrations spanning two pages each, Our Baby in Our Hearts includes a heartfelt note to parents from the author, Vera V. Chapman, LPC, Board Certified Coach, and Certified Children’s Mindfulness Teacher. In this note, she offers guidance on supporting young children through pregnancy loss and a downloadable resource for parents to print at home and use with their children.Recommended for parents and caregivers, grief counselors, therapists, social workers, bereavement support groups, perinatal loss service organizations, social service agencies, and educators, Our Baby in Our Hearts offers a practical and mindful approach to overcoming grief and loss.
