Makes perfect sense, that sounds lovely and so thoughtful

I have just ordered my silver star shaped pendant....my son had his fingerprint taken to go on the back. I eventually decided against putting the due date of the baby I lost on it as I don't want to have to explain this to anyone if they ever ask to see my son's fingerprint on the back. So I spoke it over with the jeweller and she says she's going to put a small heart on the reverse, something that only my husband and I will know the significance of. I pick it up in a couple of weeks.

So when I ordered from her, I asked for something custom. It's a simple silver open heart charm with a blue lucite forget me not flower. I liked some of the other necklaces, but didn't want the larger things or the things that had names or the words "Forever in Our Hearts" on them because I didn't want jewelry that would prompt people to ask me about it. I just wanted something that would be mine alone. Just thought I'd throw that out there, because I understand where you're coming from. Anyway, I hope you find just the right thing for you.

Here is the link if anyone else is interested: http://www.etsy.com/shop/bugaboojewelry?ref=seller_info
I ORDERED from her and she is AWESOME + SOME!!! I have ordered so much from her and she ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree, I just ordered a locket from here, so lovely!

Thanks for the link.
xx

I had to go with something very discreet as my family doesn't know of my miscarriage. I chose the November birthstone (Citrine) in a heart shaped pendant. I conceived in Early November, 2011 and began bleeding November 30th. This stone represents both my angel's conception and the passing.

I guesstimate I was around 5 wks 4 d, sometimes I think it was more because of all the tissue and bits, but sometimes I think maybe it was less... she was a surprise so I'll never really know. She was born into Heaven on November 22, 2009
