Kannon & Dash

This blog was started to chronicle my journey throughout my high risk second pregnancy after my first ended in stillbirth. This was my way of including my family and friends, especially my dad, after the fact. I've decided to continue to maintain this blog as a place to share old memories of Dashiell and new memories as Kannon, my "rainbow" baby grows.

What is a "rainbow baby"?

Rainbow baby is the term that parents who have lost a child use to describe the child who is born after the loss, the proverbial "rainbow after the storm". At first, I thought the term was cliché and clunky, but I now realize that it really is the perfect description. Kannon's arrival brought beautiful color back into my world after the darkest time in my life.

About Me

My photo
Allison (Dashiell's Mom)
I am in my late 30s and live in NYC. I lost my first child at 24 weeks 5 days on Christmas Day, 2007. He was perfectly healthy and the cause of his death may have been a cord accident, a blood clot in the placenta or neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia. I found out that I was pregnant again on the day my precious Dashiell was due. This is my chronicle of happiness, anxiety, fear and love throughout my subsequent pregnancy. It will also be a record of my experience as a mother to an earth baby and an angel.
