Infant Burial and Funeral Resources

I wanted to share a wonderful resource for miscarriage, stillbirth and infant burial/cremation.  The company is called Heaven's Gain.  I know in my state of Utah it is required by law that parents of a stillborn infant are required to bury or cremate their child's remains. Consequently all funeral homes carry burial/cremation items for preemie sized infants.  However, I never thought about those that have an earlier loss and how they might struggle finding these items.


Heaven's Gain also has a few memorial items that can either be placed at their burial site or perhaps at a memorial garden.  That's one thing on my to do list this summer is to plant a butterfly garden in our yard for our Devon.  I'd love to put a few items that are memorable to us and perhaps a statue or engraved stone.  You can view their memorial items on their site as well as a list of books they recommend.

We have a butterfly bush in our backyard that we put before Alexandra...now I'm so glad we have them. Perfect for our babies! You're going to love them if you do that this year! :) xo

Thanks, I'm going to have to do some research on plants. I'm super excited to get going once May hits and hopefully quits snowing here!!!!
