Yet true to g spirit, our conversation quickly evolved into a plan of action—to connect with global moms and dads in a personal, meaningful way. One of the gMums suggested an agency that’s...

But this month, National Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month, we make space for parents to share their grief, their love, and their words. Below is gMum Jaimey’s story about her own loss: October. The true beginning of falling leaves, crisp air, and all things pumpkin spice. Or it was until eight years ago. Now October is a lot more.

When we were expecting our first baby, Emilia, we had looked into cloth diapering a bit. Then we received so many Huggies at my baby shower that we decided to just go with disposables. But, as everyone knows, our supply of Huggies dwindled a lot faster than we had hoped, and...
