The term Rainbow Baby is often used to describe a pregnancy that has happened after the loss of a baby. A rainbow is used to signify the joy and happiness a new baby can bring after a very difficult time, and some bereaved parents find this a very helpful image 🌈

It’s important to understand that not all bereaved parents are comfortable with the term “Rainbow Baby” for lots of different reasons.

The phrase may imply that a new baby replaces the baby that was lost, which is never true.

It may imply that the arrival of a Rainbow baby is the solution to your grief, when it is not. The grief of losing a baby doesn’t go away after you welcome a new baby.

It may also imply that your much-loved baby who has died is being compared to “rain” or a “storm”, and many bereaved parents don’t want to think about their baby in that way.

It may suggest that the Rainbow baby’s identity is defined by their older sibling and their relationship with that sibling. Parents may feel that referring to a Rainbow baby is not loving or celebrating each of their children for who they are, unique in their own right.

Some parents may also feel uncomfortable that the term Rainbow baby marks out one child as different, especially if they have older children who were born before their baby who died.

As always at Sands, we suggest mirroring the words and language used by your friend or loved one or checking with them if they are comfortable using certain words or phrases. This might feel uncomfortable at first but shows an openness to listen and learn about their experience 💜🧡
