What do I do with my baby?

I've passed my baby which is 9 weeks. I don't want to flush it or through it away. What did everyone do with their baby after their miscarriage? I would love to have it cremated and put into a teddy but I don't know how I'd go about that. Maybe I bury? Feeling stuck.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Flowers

If you're wanting to have a cremation and a teddy, maybe speak to a local funeral director service to see if that's possible? They'll likely know about cremation processes and be able to advise. Online searches for memory bears might show you some options too.

We opted for burial for our baby and our mosque organised it all for us, so if you wanted to have a burial that's possible too. A funeral director or church/mosque/etc should be able to help?

Our Baby, also a 9 week loss is buried inside this heart shaped planter. It did originally have soil and bulbs inside it which at first grew lovely and then one day they collapsed over the sides. Now it has a fake rose in the middle and the 4 dried roses around either side are what I got for their due date.

What do I do with my baby?

I experienced this, unfortunately I did flush the baby because I was by myself terrified and had a 1yr old downstairs waiting for me. It was the worst day of my life.

There should be help available, I don't know if there is.

I'm so sorry for your loss x
