Haven’t been on here in what feels like forever because I’ve had my hands soooo full with this little cherub. HES AMAZING. My son, light of my life. 2 years of trying, 4 days of labour, an emergency c section and a painful recovery all 100% worth every second and I would do it again in a heartbeat. You’re the best reason to wake up in the morning and I can’t wait to watch you grow and love life the same as you’ve made me love mine ❤️ my angel my rainbow. I love you 💚

Losing our baby was the hardest thing I have ever been through, so I cannot properly express how happy we are to be welcoming another baby into this world. I prayed so very hard for healing and this baby has done just that. I can’t wait to be parents again and I cannot wait for Evelyn to be a big sister 🎃❤️

Lil pumpkin will make his/her/their debut in May!

October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. It’s a time to acknowledge hard losses faced by parents, and also to celebrate the babies who touched our hearts so completely. This month is also special for me because I had to say goodbye to my son Zachary on October 14, 2010. He lived just a few minutes after his birth, but he is still alive in my heart. I love him, miss him, and will live out his legacy by helping others. That’s the motivation behind sharing my family’s story. I hope Expecting Sunshine can help others pull themselves out of despair to rediscover joy in life after loss. www.ExpectingSunshine.com . . . . . . . #rainbow #rainbowbaby #pregnancyafterloss #ilostmyson #pregnancyannouncement #allmychildren #pregnancyloss #miscarriage #childloss #infantloss #babyafterloss #baby #grievingmother #foreverourbaby #stillborn #stillbirth #babyloss #babylosssupport #miscarriagesupport #miscarriageawareness #trialsbringblessing #expectingsunshine #alexismariechute #ttc #grief #healing #expectingsunshinememoir #mustread #parentingafterloss https://www.instagram.com/p/B3F4ktdgx52/?igshid=1rk69h9o9rhrb

Keep believing! 💜#repost via @brittanycelaya ・・・ Walking into 31 weeks like 🤰💫💃🏻 . This last week I've noticed a few changes! Baby is definitely taking up more room in here. Shortness of breath, leg and foot cramps, and an increased appetite! All pregnancy symptoms I welcome with joy as I'm brewing a healthy baby girl and she is worth it all! . . The closer we get to full term the more and more excited I am about the idea of having a baby here in my arms. I've finally allowed myself to believe that this is actually going to happen this time 🌈💗 . . . As much as I love being pregnant, I'm ready to fast forward the next 2 months and be at home with baby girl in my arms! I can't wait! . . . #rainbowbaby #myrainbow #rainbowbabyshower #babyshowerdress #rainbowdress #31weekspregnant #31weeks #pregnancyafterloss #pregnancyloss #infantloss #tfmr #lossmom #bereavedparents #youknowme #endingawantedpregnancy #pail #pal #pailawareness #stillamom #babyafterloss #stillbornstillloved #momofdaughters #girlmom #maternityphotography #maternityphotoshoot #pregnancyafterlosssupport https://www.instagram.com/p/ByG58qIHth0/

“An amazingly moving and emotional story that any woman―or any parent―can easily relate to.” ―Jennifer Hamilton, Editor, Canadian Family magazine 🌈 ❤️ Expecting Sunshine is a multi-award-winning memoir and a Kirkus Review BEST INDIE BOOK of 2017 📚💕 Anyone who has experienced—or knows someone who has experienced—miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, stillbirth, or other forms of pregnancy and baby loss should read Expecting Sunshine, including those considering or already pregnant again. 📖 After her son, Zachary, dies in her arms at birth, visual artist and author Alexis Marie Chute disappears into her “Year of Distraction.” She cannot paint or write or tap into the heart of who she used to be, mourning not only for Zachary, but also for the future they might have had together. It is only when Chute learns she is pregnant again that she sets out to find healing and rediscover her identity—just in time, she hopes, to welcome her next child. 📖 In the forty weeks of her pregnancy, Chute grapples with her strained marriage, shaken faith, and medical diagnosis, with profound results. 📖 Glowing with riveting and gorgeous prose, Expecting Sunshine chronicles the anticipation and anxiety of expecting a baby while still grieving for the child that came before—enveloping readers with insightful observations on grief and healing, life and death, and the incredible power of a mother’s love. . . . . . . . #pregnancyloss #miscarriage #childloss #infantloss #babyafterloss #baby #grievingmother #foreverourbaby #stillborn #stillbirth #babyloss #babylosssupport #miscarriagesupport #miscarriageawareness #trialsbringblessing #expectingsunshine #alexismariechute #ttc #grief #healing #expectingsunshinememoir #mustread #parentingafterloss #griefsupport #lifeafterloss #babyloss #rainbowbaby #pregnancyafterloss #griefbooks #griefquotes https://www.instagram.com/p/B2e-_SWg6Gx/?igshid=1wziicec4ye1n

“In Expecting Sunshine, the Edmonton-based writer and artist Alexis Marie Chute writes about loss—the most primal loss we can experience, the loss of a child—in such luminous prose and with such clear-eyed insight that the beauty of the text brings the reader to the edge of tears. Tears of sadness for her family’s loss, yes, but more profoundly, tears of release and healing as we witness the cathartic powers of art and the scope of a young family’s love. This is a beautiful, honest, important book that makes death a starting point for the continuation of life—literally, as the book chronicles Chute’s first pregnancy after the death of her son Zachary–and grief the catalyst from which joy is born.” - Pamela Petro Author of the books The Slow Breath of Stone, Travels in an Old Tongue, and Sitting Up with the Dead 🌈📚💕 #expectingsunshine www.ExpectingSunshine.com 📸 @agp_guerra . . . . . . . . #rainbow #rainbowbaby #pregnancyafterloss #ilostmyson #pregnancyannouncement #allmychildren #pregnancyloss #miscarriage #childloss #infantloss #babyafterloss #baby #grievingmother #foreverourbaby #stillborn #stillbirth #babyloss #babylosssupport #miscarriagesupport #miscarriageawareness #trialsbringblessing #alexismariechute #ttc #grief #healing #expectingsunshinememoir #mustread #parentingafterloss https://www.instagram.com/p/BzhE4bugYF_/?igshid=ooa95wkvhc9k
