What can I do?
When a family member or friend suffers a pregnancy or infant loss, how best to support them can be uncertain. You might feel unprepared to offer support to your loved one and be asking, “What can I do?” It’s likely you are also grieving this loss, and trying to find a balance between your own sadness and your desire to support the baby’s parents can be a challenge.
We hope the resources below will be useful for navigating this difficult course. We also suggest reading through some of the resources within the Resources for Parents section to gain a better understanding of what your loved one may be experiencing.
