Some ideas and suggestions which can go into a Memory Box:
- Plaster and/or foot prints, if possible. Sometimes the hospital staff will take them, the funeral home or a local individual who specializes in such work. They can also be framed into a shadow box as a cherished momento.
- Photographs in a variety of poses: singly, together, dressed, undressed, just hands and/or feet, with parents, siblings, grandparents.
- Ultrasound pictures, cards, notes receive.
- Photographs from the funeral.
- Hospital bracelet(s).
- Special ornament for the holidays.
- Honorary birth certificate if baby was born still. Make sure the hospital correctly identifies the multiple-birth. The loss of one triplet, does not make twins.
- Death Certificate.
- Some items such as ultrasounds and/or photos can be etched into crystal. An internet search will provide information regarding such services.
