Today is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day in the month of Respect Life October.
It makes sense to have these two events in the same month. We have to respect all lives, even the ones that die too soon.
We at Catholic Wellness Moms support life at all stages from the unborn to natural death, no exception to this. A person is still a person no matter how small they are, for they all have a soul that lives forever.
Losing a child is one of the greatest sufferings that I have experienced. There is something about losing a child, a creation of God, whose very being is printed into your soul, DNA, and heart forever.
There are no words to describe this loss.
It has taken me many years to learn how to cope with the loss of my five children. To be in the right place of mind so that I can see their anniversary dates and not lose myself in my emotions.
The turning point was when I finally allowed God’s merciful love to break through my weakness, which resulted in the start of my journey of wellness through holiness.
I invite you to let God’s merciful love break through and bring you an awareness to the need of improving your wellness so that you can heal and hope and live after a loss!
Reach out, let’s chat and see how we can aid you on this journey of wellness through holiness.
Here is a poem that I wrote after my first misscarriage.
Here are some gift ideas from small Catholic women businesses to either bring you or someone you know comfort and healing.

Words are powerful. Words can bring healing.
About seven years ago, I shared a blog post about my unborn loss stories and how a book brought me lots of healing.
I want to offer this book to you if you feel that you need those words of healing to help you on your journey.
Please, if you need someone to talk to, you may reach me at catholicwellnessmom@gmail.com.
With the Love of Christ,
Maria Cecilia
