Burying a baby is something no parent should ever have to face, and yet that\u2019s exactly what I had to do when my son was just three months old.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In October 2020, my then-partner, Gary, put Logan to sleep in a V-shaped pregnancy pillow next to our bed. He was fed, he was clean and he should have been safe.<\/p>\n

Tragically though, he never woke up. And in August last year, the coroner at the inquest into his death ruled that co-sleeping in bed beside his father was a contributing factor to his death.<\/p>\n

I will regret that night for as long as I live. When we found out I was expecting, Gary and I were so excited. We\u2019d only been trying for a couple of months and couldn\u2019t wait to extend our family.<\/p>\n

At 20 weeks pregnant we had a gender reveal party where we popped a black balloon over our heads and got covered in blue confetti. I loved shopping for all my baby bits \u2013 choosing a pram and high chair, buying blue baby clothes and blankets, everything was blue!<\/p>\n

Then, on 11 July 2020, our little Logan was born at 38 weeks. I had to have an emergency C-section because scans had revealed I was carrying extra fluid and there was a knot in his umbilical cord.<\/p>\n

Thankfully he was healthy and was the most gorgeous baby. I was instantly in love with his tiny feet, bright blue eyes and wee button nose.<\/p>\n

Back home, we quickly settled into a routine: a bath, Johnson\u2019s night-time cream with lavender to help him sleep soundly, a bottle, then into his cot.<\/p>\n
