My baby boy is being cremated tomorrow.

My sweet baby boy is being cremated tomorrow morning at 9:15am. He was born too early to stay in my arms as he should have done, and I am so heartbroken.

I’ve only just found out the time and date of his cremation this evening. I though I would have more notice, time to plan and do something special in his honour and to remember him. Sadly that is not the case, so I thought I would turn to the power of mumsnet and ask if all you lovely people could spare a thought and wish my baby boy good luck on his journey to the stars tomorrow. It would just be so lovely and would mean an awful lot to me to know that he is being thought of tomorrow.

His name is Alexander and he was born on 16/02/21 💙

Thank you in advance.
