![]() In 2009, 11 years after losing Casey Shay, Deanna decided that she’d gone long enough without having a baby book to fill out for her first baby, and to write down her memories of her pregnancy. So she made one herself and got it published. It is a 40-page full-color hardcover book filled with images of angels and space to tell about your baby’s pregnancy. Every single baby or child she photographed as angels in the book has a story, as all of them had a brother or sister lost to miscarriage. This company of angels are there to guide you through the process of telling your angel’s life story, and to remind us that we mothers are the ones who carry so much hope in this world. The video about the book is on the left side of the page. To order your own copy, visit the publisher’s page. You will also get a set of Baby Love Notes, little angel cards to use in the book if you have no sonograms or other images (although pages can be removed) or to use as a card for a grieving friend. If you have questions about this book, feel free to email the publisher. They have discounts for book stores that want to carry it and nonprofits who want to give copies to bereaved parents. You can also buy this book at Amazon if you prefer.

Deanna’s Top Recommendations I have personally read the following books and believe they are helpful. |
![]() This is the book John and I read in the car in the weeks following our first loss. It takes you through every step of the grieving process, including moving on and trying for your next baby. It includes a solid section on what to expect both physically and mentally after a miscarriage or neonatal death. This book helped us a lot when we worked through it as a couple.

![]() This book is a MUST HAVE if you are trying to get pregnant. For the first time in my life, I finally understood what all my discharges were about, how to truly interpret my temperatures, and all those fine details that mom, doctors, and pamphlets enclosed with products never explained. This book will definitely help you get pregnant faster, or clue you in quicker if you have an infertility problem that needs medical attention. A life saver. Click here for more information.

![]() A very quick reading book that concisely covers the causes of miscarriage and the treatments for those causes that can be identified. The emotional side of miscarriage is only glossed over, so this book is for the woman looking for hard facts. One of the better features of the book is a section with three very well written women’s stories in complete detail, which is much more helpful than little sound bites from women that most books have.
