🌈 A baby born after a miscarriage, stillbirth or the death of an infant is a Rainbow Baby. Today we celebrate those babies, all the rainbows that changed our lives and brought so much joy after so much grief. 🌈

We still honour the memory of those we've lost and hold the umbrella for all those still standing in the rain.

We know for some who have not experienced their rainbow, today can be a hard day. Please always remember we are available 24/7 via our support line on 1300 308 307.

WORLD FIRST BREAKTHROUGH | Twenty nine years ago, Dr Carmel Harrington lost her baby, Damien, to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). From then on, she has dedicated her career to researching the condition and finding answers.

Today, she has achieved that goal, identifying the first biochemical marker that indicates a baby’s vulnerability to SIDS while they are still alive.

Together with researchers at our Hospital, Dr Harrington found levels of Butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), an enzyme which plays a major role in the brain’s arousal pathway, were significantly lower in babies who subsequently died of SIDS compared to living controls and other infant deaths.

The findings have the potential to be game-changing, opening up the possibility for intervention and finally giving answers to parents who have lost their children so tragically.
