The white background symbolizes non-violence in the womb as well as the innocence of the unborn child.

The two baby feet represent the humanity of the unborn child. Baby feet have been a symbol associated with the pro-life movement since the iconic Precious Feet lapel pins were named the international pro-life symbol in 1979.

The two pink hands represent the pregnant mother, holding and protecting her child.

The circle shape formed by the hands evoke imagery of a pregnant mother’s growing belly: a safe, secure, protected place for a developing child.

The two stripes again emphasize the TWO distinct human lives present in a pregnancy. The stripes also form an “equals sign,” stressing that the unborn child is equally and fully human, and therefore deserving of equal human rights. The stripes can also represent the role of both the father and mother in creating and raising a child.

The colors blue and pink mean different things to different people. Traditionally, they have been the colors associated with baby boys and girls, but the two distinct colors also reemphasize the two lives present in a pregnancy: mother and child.
