I’m Jess, a wife, and a mother to two boys. Leo, our first, was stillborn in 2016, and his little brother Eli was born screaming in 2017. They have both taught us more than any school day ever could – how to love, live and laugh to the fullest. I started blogging our story after Leo died, when I was abruptly thrust into the world of baby loss, grief, and confusion. With that, I passionately raise awareness for baby loss prevention and support and have fundraised nearly £25,000 for a number of different charities. I host a regular #BabyLossHour on Twitter to help connect bereaved parents with each other, organisations and charities for support and started the #AdventToRemember project in order to ease the pain of missing someone at Christmas. It is bittersweet, but this is my version of motherhood.
