I am very sad today, to have to come on here to update you that unfortunately this baby, too, was not meant to be. At Mrs. Clementine's 8wk ultrasound, she and her husband were informed that thier little rainbow baby, had infact stopped growing at 5 1/2 weeks and no longer had a heartbeat. They were told that she would need a procedure done to remove the baby that once was the answer to all their prayers and that when it was done, she would no longer be pregnant, or be giving birth to her rainbow baby. I ask you now, more than ever, to please help make this campaign happen. Regretfully, it is no longer in celebration of the life inside her, but now is for condolences for the baby that they have lost. This year will make 6 years of trying to conceive and the second child that they have lost along their journey. She and her husband are facing terrible tradegy that no parent should ever have to face, and she needs your support to help lift her up and give her the strength to continue to carry on. Hopefully, to one day conceive a child that they will be able to celebrate, and bring home from the hospital and watch grow year after year. But that time is not now, and she is not in a good place. She mourning the loss of yet another child, and at this time, needs your support to help her carry on. Please show that support by helping to make this campaign happen.
With Deepest Sorrow,
Amberlynn
This story begins with several strangers by chance, coming together in a community forum for women, all with the same desire. To conceive a child. Each woman different but so much a like, at the same time. Coming from around the world to provide each other a safe haven, away from the everything that can be so cruel at times, giving support and kind words of encouragement to each other, and just being there to listen to what she needed to say when there was not another soul on the planet that would not only really listen, but truly know what she was going through as well. A place to come to, to escape the outside world, if only for a while and commune with women from all over the world and from vastly different walks of life, all cheering each other on, while we eached walked our journey to motherhood. Some of us having several children already, some of us only one, some of us having not quite made it that far in on our life path yet, and other's who had walked the difficult journey of being blessed with positive pregnancy tests, but never a take home baby. Some of the women conceiving the first month of trying, other's having "oop's" babies, numerous women spending months and months tracking everything under the sun until finally falling pregnant, fertility problems lead numerous women to months or years of medical interventions and endless medications with some of them finally holding a newborn in their arms and others left behind still praying that one day they, too, will be blessed with a child. All the while, no matter which category or how many of them you fall into, we find a way to be there for each other, like no one else on this earth can be. And the friendships that are made, even if the ladies never formally meet or even talk on the phone, are so deep and intimate only a woman who has walked these paths can understand how deep the roots of these friendships grow.
Mrs.Clementine has been a member of this community for 5 years and has seen many friends come, conceive, and go. And even some come back again, conceive, give birth to another child, and return to her family life once again. All the while, praying that one day it will be her that is writing about the woo's of pregnancy, and sharing her birth story, and slowly leaving to tend to the family that she so desperately prays for. Fortunately, her time did eventually come and she too got to see those two lovely pink lines on a pregnancy test and feel the joy of knowing they had finally made their dreams come true. Her days filled with doctor's appointments, joy, and day dreaming up what her and her husbands lives would be like once they brought this tiny miracle home.
To their devastation they later found out that the pregnancy was not going to be carried to full term and that she had in fact lost the baby. That life shattering news was delivered to them right previous to Christmas that year, and just a few short days after the holiday she in fact give birth to a stillborn baby. With their dreams, hopes, and lives in tatters they attempted to pick up the pieces while they greived the loss of a child that had been loved more then life itself before it ever even was in her womb. Their life had been turned upside down in a matter of weeks and they had no idea how to continue on for the next minute, let alone the rest of their lives without thier baby in it with them.
Eventually, as the pain began to hurt a little less and the days started to get a little easier to wake up to, they decided to continue on for another baby. Even though this baby would never replace the angel they lost, their desire to create a family and a happy home was overwhelming and they knew that their lives would never be complete without the child that they had dreamed of having for so long now.
It has been five very long and hard years for mrs.clementine and her husband. They have had to face unspeakable tradegy, but unlike lots of other marriages that fall apart after walking through something like that, they have only grown closer and their desire for a child stronger. They are the apitime of strength and courage and their determination and unwillingness to give up is nothing short of heroic. I have been blessed to have been put on a path in life that lead me to meet her, follow her journey, and start to develop a friendship with her that I hope will endure for years and years to come. She is an amazing woman and I can't help but admire the qualities she has acquired throughout such a dark journey. I can't help but look up to her in awe seeing how far she has come through adversity and is still a pillar of strength and determination. I admire the relationship that her and her husband have carved out for themselves, as the unconditional love that they have for each other is a rarity in this world today and I can't help but think she is a lucky woman to have been blessed with such a marraige. But at the same time feel incredible hurt that the one thing she desires so much in this world has seemed almost impossible for her to obtain.
A baby, the one thing in this world that they desire with every piece of their heart and soul, and if I could snap my fingers for her and make it happen, I would in a heart beat. After months and months, and years and years of everytime you look at your pregnancy test it is always negative, I admire her strength for being able to keep going. Fortunately, I don't have to try to learn magic, because this very month she looked down at the same pregnancy test's that she's stared at for years that stared back with only one line, everytime, except this time, when she placed that test down and looked down, low and behold, staring back at her were two beautiful, miracles in the making. Two gorguous life changing pink lines. And those two lines, when you have desired them for so, so long are such a blessing and God send to see.
She is going to be a mother, and her husband a father. They are finally going to have the family that they have dreamed of for years and years. To some, two tiny pink lines don't mean much at all, but to this couple, they hold the keys to everything they've ever dreamed of and are nothing short of a miracle.
Now that you have heard Mrs.Clementine's story, I would like to explain to you why I have created this account and why I am asking you to help contribute to it. This woman has literally walked through fire to conceive the rainbow baby that she is currently pregnant with, and even though that baby is most certainly a miracle to her, I think that after all this time of her standing behind countless strangers and friends on Baby and Bump, it's time that she get's something back, and is realizes just how much people care that she has finally conceived her rainbow miracle of a baby.
Myself and another member, BlueMoon, have decided that it would be insanely awesome to be able to surprise Mrs.Clementine with a special gift that will represent not only the long journy she has traveled to get here, but also her angel baby, her husband, herself, and their rainbow. We would like to gift her a piece of momento jewelry that will represent her travels through life and her little family. We have found a piece of custom handcrafted jewelry, a necklace and pendant, fondly called, "The Tree of Life". The pendant is made from wires wrapped into the shape of a tree and then gemstones are twisted into it as the leaves of the tree, with the gemstones having special significance by representing each of her children and her and her husband. I have asked that everyone who wishes to contribute to make this happen for her, as she surely deserves it, to please get a card for her that you find appropriate and to double envelope it and send it to me. I think that it will be very moving for her to see just how many woman are rallying behind her in support and cheering her on during this pregnancy. I'm secretly hoping that the sheer number of cards will be a crazy amount and difficult to fit into the box, lol. I will then take the outside envelopes off, leaving all the cards still sealed and intact, and put them inside the keepsake box (a box that I will be purchasing that she will be able to keep to hold momentos from the babies birth in) that will hold the jewelry, all of the cards, and possibly a prenatal massage certificate, and if this takes off like I'm praying does, a check made out to her as well, so that she can spend a day shopping for her rainbow baby, and then end her day with a wonderfully relaxing prenatal massage.
Ideally, we would like to have a potted plant that blooms delivered to her as well, to respresent her growing family, and if we can figure out a way to make it work, we are going to try to have the package and flowers delivered at the same time, while it is being videotaped so after it's all said and done, I can upload the video of her reaction to this heartfelt and truly humbling gift on here for all of us to be able to watch.
I have seen a few newborn onsie's that are monogramed on the front of them with "Hand picked for Earth, by my Sibling up in Heaven" and another one that says "After every storm, there is a rainbow of hope. Here I am!" If anyone makes these kinds of things and would like to send it along with your card, I think that she would really love to have one of them. Lastly, I also saw a pregnancy journal called "A weekly Journal of Growing my Rainbow Baby" that I thought would be very fitting for her situation and incredibly helpful in her situation as I am sure that she is dealing with a lot of fear and worry considering the loss of their angel baby. So, if anyone would like to purchase something like this or this one (the link is below) and send it along with their card that would be fantastic.

I am currently collaborting with the jewelry designer to hash out the details of the pendant and how it will look when finished. I will be intermittently updating this with photo's of similar pieces of jewelry, so you ladies have an idea of what we have pick out, updates on Mrs.Clementimes pregnancy, and anytime anything happens/changes/ comes in pertaining to this miracle of a surprise we are desperately trying to pull off, it will be put up here, so that everyone is know about what is going on. I have roughly estimated the total cost of this miracle for Clementine, but I could be way off in either direction, so I'm letting everyone know ahead of time that the "goal amount" is subject to change, but you will always be notified why.
********PLEASE< PLEASE<PLEASE*********
SHARE THIS ON YOUR OWN FACEBOOK PAGES, YOUR EMAIL CONTACTS, TWITTERS, ANY KIND OF SOCIAL MEDIA, ETC. JUST MAKE SURE THAT THIS STAYS A SECRET AND THAT MRS.CLEMENTINE TO DOES NOT GET EVEN THE SLIGHTEST HINT THAT WE ARE UP TO SOMETHING. BUT THE MORE PEOPLE AND FOOT TRAFFIC THIS GETS THE BETTER AND BETTER WE WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE THIS SURPRISE AND PULL IT OFF IN A WAY THAT WILL BLOW HER SOCKS OFF!!!
