On October 3rd, 2024 our second born daughter, Bailey Spring, was born with her soul already in the arms of Jesus at 38 weeks with no explanation. The night before, we walked into the hospital hoping the lack of movement was just her preparing for labor, only to get the most devastating news anyone could get. A few hours later we finally got to hold the most beautiful angel we’d ever seen. She had a head full of hair, blue eyes, giant hands, and we will long for her every day until we see her again.

Because we thought we might be going into labor, we were thankfully prepared with beautiful blankets not only to take photos with, but to bring home later as a piece of her. To have something that touched her body, some sort of proof she was real. Our hope for Bailey’s Blankies is to provide that same treasure to families who might not have came as prepared, who didn’t know how their trip was going to end.

Our goal in this page is to raise money to continue providing these gifts to hospitals as far and wide as we can reach. In these gifts each mom will receive both a blankie and either a matching hat or headband depending on the mom’s choice. If you’ve found this page you may know us, or you also may be an A Great Baby customer or found us through the distribution of these blankies. Whatever the case, it is safe to assume you have some relation to loving any baby, and we hope you will understand our desire to help as many families as possible in their grief of such a tiny, perfect life.


Thank you in advance, from the bottom of our hearts
Julie & Robert Pope
