When my friend lost her four-month-old baby, I searched online for a memorial gift for her. To my disappointment, everything I found was either really ugly or really expensive. Then I thought of Etsy and I found Bugaboo Jewelry, specializing in miscarriage, stillbirth, and pregnancy-infant loss. She made a necklace for my friend and a keychain for her husband, using the actual handprints and footprints of their baby:
Smiles
*All her jewelry is beautiful and would make a perfect gift for someone who has experienced loss.
*Everything is personalized. The seller is very flexible.
*Excellent customer service: she was quick, exact, friendly, communicative, and understanding.
*Great cause. Until the last couple years, I was unaware of how common miscarriages and other losses are.
*Irrelevant, but I love the name because I call my baby Bugaboo!
Frowns
*Honestly, none.
Bugaboo Jewelry will be giving away the one-inch, sterling silver "Forever in My Heart" eternity circle with birthstones, a $25 value. The swarovski birthstone crystals could represent conception, birth/loss, due date, or all three, to remind you of your little loved one and keep him or her close to your heart. The pendant is strung on a thin, eighteen-inch, silver-plated ball chain.

Last one I swear! Clearly I really want to win!
I am entering for my sister in law, who gave birth to an angel on August 27 of this year at 7 months along. They are amazing people and have been so strong through the whole experience.
I would get this for my wonderful friend, she gave birth to and lost one of her twins back in August at 19 weeks and yesterday she gave birth to the other twin, healthy and alive, at 31 weeks.
