The 10 Photos That Defined This Year in Parenting

When a couple experiences a miscarriage or stillbirth and goes on to have another baby, that new child is called a "rainbow baby." After these moms survived the storm of a pregnancy loss, their beautiful rainbows emerge and two photographers illustrated this powerful concept. In a photo they shared to Facebook, Natalia Karpovovy and Elena Gannenko captured seven moms and their rainbow babies by posting side-by-side photos of the mamas while pregnant (each dressed in a color of the rainbow) followed by a moving image of the mothers in white holding their rainbow-clad kiddos. These shots inspired thousands of people to comment with their personal experiences and show off their own rainbow babies.
