angel babies
Winged celestial children
Angel babies is a euphemism for children who have died, typically before or shortly after birth—miscarriages, stillbirths, or infant deaths.
The term offers comfort by imagining the lost child as an angel in heaven: We have two children at home and one angel baby.
