💔 From Grief to Purpose: Why I Created a Safe Space for Baby Loss, Infertility & Pregnancy After Loss Survivors

If you’re searching for support after miscarriage, stillbirth, infant loss, infertility, or pregnancy after loss, you are not alone—and you’ve just found your people. I’m Bernice Quesenberry, and this is more than a nonprofit—this is my heart, built out of a mother’s deepest heartbreak.

Our journey has included years of secondary infertility, early pregnancy loss, and, on March 16, 2021, the sudden and devastating death of our daughter, Brooke, at just 5½ weeks old. One day, we were holding her in our arms. The next, we were forced to return to a life that no longer made sense.

I searched everywhere for help, but nothing existed that offered daily support, or a place to be seen, heard, and held in the middle of the grief. We were overwhelmed with scattered resources—some irrelevant, others unresponsive. It felt like we were grieving in silence. And I knew: no one should have to go through this alone.

So, I built what I needed most: A daily lifeline for survivors navigating the unbearable.

We are here from the moment your world falls apart, through every wave of grief, and into the long road of healing—however that looks for you.

This is for the parents who’ve buried dreams, cradled urns, sat through silent ultrasounds, and carried love with no heartbeat.

This is for you. This is for your baby.

Let’s LIFE & HONOR OUR BABIES OUT LOUD TOGETHER, survivors. 💛
