About Mama of More

Being a Mama of More puts us in a club that I know none of us ever wanted to be in. I truly never pictured miscarriage being a part of my story. My hope is to bring you encouragement now and in the days ahead. I lost my baby in November 2021. Now, I hold a deeper understanding of the statement, “Not a day goes by that I don’t think of them.” While I know the pain that comes from the loss of a baby, I also know the joy that comes from our Creator and not our circumstances. I hope to share the love of Christ with you and offer a place where you know you are not alone.

If you have found this page, and you are a mama of more yourself, or maybe you know someone who could use a community like this, this is for you! I know that miscarriage is not the only way that some of us have become mamas of children who are no longer here. This page was created to form a community and safe space for all of us to remember our babies and children that we no longer have here with us.

I have found that I often experience greater anxiety around the time of year that I found out I was pregnant with the baby I lost. It’s also difficult when I want to acknowledge dates that stand out in my mind such as when I found out I had lost my baby, the day I physically lost my baby, and the anniversary of my baby’s due date. If this resonates with you, please know that you are welcome to celebrate your child’s life here in this community, and we want to celebrate with you!

Being a Mama of More means that you have children that we cannot see. But I don’t just want it to end there. I believe that God has a purpose and will for all of us. He orchestrates every detail in our lives, and while some may be painful, He remains our good and faithful Father.

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.”

2 Corinthians 1:3-4 (ESV)

My hope is that this can be a place where we comfort each other on the hard days, where we continually share encouragement and uplifting messages, and where we seek to be who God is calling us to be.
