Her perfect little button nose deserved a place on here 🥰 I still can’t believe how beautiful you are baby girl. We miss you so much, it would be impossible to put it into words.

We love you darling, and we hope more than anything that we’re doing you proud 🤍✨

Charlie James Rhys Chapman 🌈🩵

Our beautiful rainbow boy was born yesterday, 15/01/26 - the same date of the month as his big sister 🥹 weighing a tiny 5lb 10oz.

Little man is currently in NICU getting a little bit of help but is doing absolutely amazing and should be back on the ward with us very soon. We are truly besotted and can’t believe he’s actually ours. He’s here, he’s safe, and we have him in our arms 😭 what a feeling 🩵💫 by @dearfreyarae

One minute. One minute out of 1440 in your day, is all it will take you to light a candle and let a bereaved parent know you’re remembering their baby with them. It’s one minute out of your whole year, but that one minute means more than you ever know to that baby’s Mummy and Daddy.

I won’t lie, last year hurt at the lack of effort on the wave of light, when you put it into perspective that we’re only asking for one minute a year, it really isn’t much to ask for.

So, if you know someone grieving their baby, please take that one minute on Thursday at 7pm to help them honour and remember them. Because the grief us parents carry, sadly isn’t just for that minute once a year, it’s every minute of every day.

LINK IN BIO TO ADD YOUR BABY(IES) 🩷🩵

I know, I know, it’s not even been Halloween 🙈

BUT with a crazy 9 month old, being back at work, and another baby on the way, life is pretty hectic right now! And these trees take a lot more work than you would think. We haven’t done one all year this year and I want to make sure it’s perfect to make up for it 🎄🌟

I’m not sure when I’ll close this yet but I’ll be keeping an eye on it and I’ll update as soon as I know! Can’t wait to see all your babies names on the tree again 💫 by @dearfreyarae

One thing I’ll never get over. How am I cleaning my daughter’s urn instead of watching her grow? 💔

A motherhood no one wants to live.

I never shared much regarding our breastfeeding journey, mainly because it wasn’t a long one but for the short time I got to feed my boy, it felt like the most natural thing in the world.

I don’t normally comment on these types of things because I just think it shouldn’t even be a topic up for discussion? A mother feeding a baby creates way too much of a conversation in my opinion when it really shouldn’t. The fact that this day and age, influencers are making such comments about a mother nurturing their child absolutely baffles me.

If you breastfeed and you’re out in public and your baby needs feeding, bloody feed them! I’m more uncomfortable at most of this influencers photos showing much more than a mother does when they feed their child.

I certainly didn’t care when I fed Charlie, and I won’t if I ever get the chance to breastfeed another baby in the future and neither should any other mother.

The best Nanna my babies could ever wish for ✨🩷🩵

Not only does she show our boy so much love, she remembers Freya and never forgets that she has an extra grandchild. Freya is thought of just as much as the others, and I’ll forever be grateful for that 🤍

I miss her just as much as I did the day she died. Grief doesn’t go away, just because I have another child doesn’t mean ‘I’m okay’.

It’s been two years and the grief is still the same, except you have to learn to carry it on your own as everyone else moves on and hardly says their name anymore.

I’m sick of loss parent life tbh, that is all.

Bereaved Father’s Day - A day I wish we never knew existed and one where I wish you never had to be a part of.

My heart will always break for you at the thought of you not getting to watch our little girl grow and go through those father, daughter milestones that I know you were so looking forward too. People tend to forget about the Dad’s, and as the years go on, forget about the grief parents carry every day. But I will always acknowledge your strength every single day that you get up, carry on for me and our rainbow boy, even with that ache in your heart for your baby girl.

I’m so proud of you every single day, you’re the best Daddy to both our babies 🩵🩷 by @dearfreyarae

National Rainbow Baby Day 🌈

How lucky are we to have our rainbow baby in our arms, to get to watch him grow, hit milestones and bring light back into our lives ✨ today is all about you my boy, and it will never be lost on us how lucky we are to have you here with us.

Sending love to those pregnant with their rainbow, trying for their rainbow or just hoping one day they’ll have a rainbow baby in their arms 🌈

Forever grateful for our girl for sending him to heal our hearts, but we will always miss her in ways we can never explain. Never instead of you Freya, always because of you 🩷🩵 by @dearfreyarae

I always find this a hard thought. We were very much in the mindset of ‘one and done’ when I was pregnant with Freya and I know that we both meant it. Would we have changed our mind? Who knows.

But it’s definitely a complex kind of heartbreak and gratitude when you have your rainbow baby in your arms but also want your angel baby with you too. Would they both have been here if she didn’t die? I couldn’t imagine my life without him but I wish I got to keep her too 💔
