The funeral

The funeral is another opportunity for memory creation.
 
Many bereaved parents derive comfort from placing significant objects in the baby’s coffin. It is nice idea to purchase a Mizpah coin, the kind that's in two pieces on two separate chains. It says, "May the Lord watch between me and thee while we are apart from one another."  Friendship necklaces and braclets can also be purchased for this. Parents typically bury one half with the baby , and keep the other half to wear. Another idea alng these lines is to purchase a pair of earrings placing one with the baby and keeping one to wear.
Another article that parents often place in the coffin with the baby is some kind of soft toy, a smaller one can be purchased for the  baby and a larger one for  the parents to keep  the bear may also serve as a focus for the need to cuddle something after the baby has been buried.
Some parents ask family and friends who are attending the funeral to bring a small article of childhood with them and place it in coffin with the baby, others include photos of family members or drawings from siblings.
