I have a necklace of an angel that someone gave me that I wear on a regular basis. I also bought a little Christmas ornament of a baby sleeping on a cloud since we lost the baby right before Christmas. I do not want our angel to ever be forgotten.

I think of my angel from time to time but I also have a memory box with foot prints and pictures. Also got a mother's love figurine from a group of ladies from another forum I frequented when I was PG.

I kept the US pic of the twins and will often think about them. I have a great reminder now. My rainbow baby was born the week of the Twins EDD.

Its too raw for me...I threw away a lot of things cause everything was out and like a stab in the gut...right now, I have two pregnancy tests, and my beautiful 7 1/2 week U/S when baby looked so perfect...I think I'm going to put those things in a little box along with a handwritten note in which I tell her that I loved her...I think it was a girl

Up on some property we own I have a memorial for my mom with a bench that Dh made for me sitting by it. I had my SIL make me two crosses that I am going to paint and decorate. One will say Peanut-Peanut was our first loss. The second cross will say Pumpkin-Was our third loss. I kind of feel bad that I really don't do anything for the 2nd loss. With the second loss we found out we were expecting almost the same time we found out we were lossing it.

I have the u/s pics from Spud and the twins. I plan on someday getting a tattoo with DS's and hopefully my next rainbow babies footprints with a star for each angel.
Also my co-workers(only two people IRL who knew) just gave me a rose bush yesterday for the twins, I'm thinking it will become my angel memorial, and I'll get a little fairy or angel statue to go under it.

I have one of those necklaces, too.
Mostly we have a little memorial that covers about 1/3 of our bedroom dresser. It has a framed picture of us with him, a mold of his feet, my + pregnancy tests, a blanket he was wrapped up in, a teddy bear from my PR ladies, a hat that was made for him, a card from the hospital, obituaries, and his ashes.
We also included pictures of him in our rotating electronic picture frame in the living room.
Plus I think about him pretty much nonstop, so that does it, too...

We have a decal on the back of our SUV that says, "In Loving Memory of our Precious Babies." I've ordered quite a few things from Remembering Our Babies, Pregnancy Loss Support - Official Site of Pregnancy & Infant Loss Remembrance Day October 15th so I have some tangible things to honor them. We have an ornament for our tree at Christmas time, and I have the pregnancy and infant loss ribbon tattooed on my back. Once we're done ttc for good, and I know what my final angel count will be, I'll be getting a special tattoo just for them.
