How to Choose Baby Loss Jewellery: A Gentle Guide for Families

Choosing baby loss jewellery is one of the most tender decisions a family can make. It isn’t about choosing a “product” — it’s about finding something that feels gentle, meaningful, and right for your heart. Whether you’re honouring a miscarriage, stillbirth, infant loss, or a tiny life that flickered for only a moment, this guide is here to help you explore your options with care and compassion.

There is no right or wrong choice. Only what feels like love.

 

Why Baby Loss Jewellery Matters

Baby loss jewellery offers a quiet way to hold your little one close. For many families, it becomes:

  • a symbol of love

  • a way to honour a life, however brief

  • a grounding reminder on difficult days

  • a private connection that doesn’t need words

Some people wear their jewellery every day. Others keep it for anniversaries, special moments, or days when they need a little extra closeness. Every choice is valid.

 

What You Can Include in Baby Loss Jewellery

You don’t need to have ashes to create a meaningful keepsake. Many families choose to include:

  • a tiny amount of ashes

  • preserved flowers

  • umbilical cord

  • hospital bands

  • pregnancy tests

  • scan photos

  • dried petals

  • a small piece of fabric

  • breastmilk

Only a very small amount is ever needed, and anything unused is always returned with your finished piece.

 

Choosing the Right Type of Jewellery

There are several gentle options, each offering something slightly different.

Rings

A ring can feel grounding — something you can touch throughout the day. Many families choose a simple, soft design that feels comforting and wearable.

Pendants & Necklaces

Worn close to the heart, pendants offer a quiet, private connection. They’re ideal if you want something subtle and deeply personal.

Charms & Bracelets

Perfect for those who prefer something small and delicate. Charms can be added to an existing bracelet or worn on their own.

Keepsakes

If you don’t want to wear jewellery, a small resin heart or token can be a beautiful alternative — something to keep in a memory box or a special place at home.

 

Choosing Colours and Styles That Feel Meaningful

Many families choose colours that reflect their baby’s story:

  • soft pastels

  • whites and creams

  • gentle blues or pinks

  • symbolic colours that hold personal meaning

You can also include preserved flowers from a funeral, remembrance service, or a bouquet given during your pregnancy.

There is no “should” here — only what feels right for you.

 

How the Process Works

The process is designed to feel safe, calm, and supported.

  • You receive a secure kit with clear instructions

  • Your materials are handled with deep care and respect

  • Your piece is created individually, one at a time

  • Any unused ashes or items are returned

  • Your jewellery is sent back by tracked post

You’re never rushed. You’re never pressured. You’re held gently throughout.

 

A Final Thought

Choosing baby loss jewellery is an act of love — a way of saying, “You were here. You mattered. You are remembered.”

If you’re unsure where to begin, or if you’d like gentle guidance, you’re always welcome to reach out. I’m here with care, understanding, and a safe space to help you choose something that feels right for your heart and your baby’s memory.
