“Beautiful exhibition- moved me to tears- I saw it with my 21-year-old daughter, Eva who was born 9 weeks early – she looked just like the photos here. Thank you for this.” (AO, Carrigaline)
“I’m the aforementioned daughter, I found it an amazing experience. Thank you for sharing your stories.”
“If you have been through any of this- you know- you just know. Such things, get huge moments. So heart-warming to see this- those pictures- these mothers. Thank you.”
“As a researcher, going around the hospital every day, I never realised there is so much pain and suffering around the happy place with babies. Eye-opening, very touching. Thank you!”
“I think this is absolutely fantastic. I was blown away and felt really connected to other mothers who had gone through the same thing and had the same worries and anxieties. This is reality at its best, so heartfelt. Super job, everyone should see this.”
“This is a truly wonderful exhibition. I am a part of a project called ‘Stories from the womb’ – we offer retreat days for women who have experienced miscarriage, stillbirth and early infant loss the silence around our experiences of these things makes it even harder to hold, to cope with. Thank you for holding space for these stories, for teaching us about what it means to have these stories as part of our lives. Brave souls. Thank you.”
