She was the most beautiful healthy baby I’ve ever seen just like her sister @babylarose.x … Words can’t describe as a mother losing your baby that I carried for all these months perfectly and gave birth to for my angel to be taken from me.
"There was no pregnancy or labour complications and she was fine & healthy but I am not going into detail right now just know that there was nothing wrong with her or myself, she was perfect. I can’t understand it she is so so beautiful Larose twin so similar. I am broken.
