Pregnancy after loss, 0-3 months with our rainbow Sol

June 2026

Our pregnancy with Sol was nothing short of a rollercoaster of emotion, anxiety and sleepless nights before he even arrived, 6 weeks prior to those two pink lines with Sol’s pregnancy we lost our boy at 38 weeks, our Sonny. 

The worst time of our lives but I truly believe that Sol was sent by Sonny to help comfort our broken hearts when we needed it most. 

Our pregnancy with Sol was followed by hospital appointments most days in the place we dreaded most but to see that flicker of his heartbeat was the light we needed at that time. At 36 weeks our Sol was born, he entered the world at 00:18 on the 23rd February in the water and to hear that cry was so emotional.

Sol spent some time in NICU due to difficulty to his breathing being born early but a few days and he was back in our room with us thriving and doing so well with his guardian angel watching over him. 

Finally after his jaundice cleared we made our way home, Sol’s big brother Harry couldn’t wait for the moment he came home to us. 

We got home still under Neonatal care and luckily the next day Sol was discharged and the moment finally arrived to get his feeding tube out! He looked like a totally different baby! The days went by as we all soaked in our baby bubble with lots of cuddles truly in the newborn trenches! 

The first few weeks were hard emotionally as seeing Sol just made me think of Sonny and how he would have looked and been with us but it has been a comfort knowing his big brother will always be part of him

2-3 months 

Sol’s personality is now starting to shine through, the gummy smiles are truly the best thing in the world! 

I feel like these months have been the hardest with sleep and regressions. He used to sleep 10pm till 5am which was amazing but now we have gone to 1 hour a night which has hit hard! 

I’m truly loving having our rainbow baby and so grateful for this chance and we are looking.
