A grieving mum has set up a project to help other parents who have lost a baby. Millie Wylie lost her third child, Lenny, when she was four months pregnant September 16, 2021, and said she will "never get over" being told her baby had no heartbeat.
The 23-year-old, from Skelmersdale, near Wigan, suffered a late missed miscarriage - when a baby dies in the womb without the mother having any symptoms. After going through the harrowing experience, she made the decision to help other bereaved mothers by setting up Lenny's Love, which provides comfort bags, as well as baby loss yoga, baby loss retreats and counselling.
Millie told the Liverpool Echo : “It’s the worst news you could ever get. I’ve been through some deeply traumatic times in my life but nothing compares to being told there’s no longer a heartbeat and your unborn child is dead.
