Our story…

We never think we are going to be the ones to lose our pregnancies, our babies, our children. But unfortunately this year, it happened to me (Hailey) and my husband (Ryan). This year, we thought twice that we had caught lightening in a bottle, and that we were going to have a baby in the early days of 2026. We became pregnant with our first in April 2025, that was gone almost as soon as we knew they were there. We quickly became pregnant with what was supposed to be our rainbow baby in May 2025. We made it to our 8 week scan when we learned our babies heart had stopped beating. It was a "missed miscarriage".

Although we wish I had either of my babies safe and healthy, and never knew the pain of loss like this, organizations such as Queen Care and Lachlan's Light have meant the world to us in moving through my grief, and have made such a difference in my life. Team Gilmer is running for the Gilmer babies who we love and miss, but also for all of the other loss parents, and their babies who have touched our lives in such a profound way. Please donate or join us in talking and celebrating our babies, all in support of two incredible causes.
