National Rainbow Baby Day provides hope to those who’ve faced miscarriage

When you’ve faced one or more miscarriages, you might be wondering if conceiving after loss and welcoming a baby is even possible. Thankfully, National Rainbow Baby Day on August 22 is proof that you can often have a healthy baby even after losing a pregnancy. Our Las Vegas infertility specialists are here to share a little bit about this special day and how our team makes dreams of parenthood come true.

What is National Rainbow Baby Day and how do you celebrate it?

In case you’re wondering, a rainbow baby is a child who is born after their parents had a miscarriage or a stillbirth. They’re called a rainbow baby because they are the beautiful rainbow after the storm.

Having a rainbow baby can cause a mix of emotions. You might feel thrilled to hold your bundle of joy. At the same time, you might also be mourning the baby or babies you lost. On National Rainbow Baby Day, the goal is to celebrate miracle babies while also remembering the little ones who aren’t here today.

There are lots of different ways to do this. Two of the most common ways include writing a letter to the child or children you lost and having a moment of remembrance with your partner. Some people also like to share their stories online and donate to groups helping those facing pregnancy loss. There’s no right or wrong way to acknowledge National Rainbow Baby Day. Just do what works for you and your family.

Conceiving after loss and welcoming a baby is possible with some help

Maybe you’re still working to have your rainbow baby. If so, our Las Vegas infertility specialists are here to support you. To get started, we recommend that you schedule a consultation at our clinic.

During this time, your doctor will order fertility testing and talk about your medical history. This information will help your doctor determine the cause of your pregnancy loss and how to overcome it in the future.

Your treatment plan will vary depending on what your test results show. For example, your doctor may recommend minimally invasive fertility surgery to correct uterine issues like a uterine septum, fibroids or polyps. If genetic issues are at play, in vitro fertilization (IVF) with preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) can be a great option.

If you’re ready to have your own rainbow baby, contact us to schedule an appointment. We’ll support you on every step of your journey.
