1/4 women will experience miscarriage*
1/200 pregnancies ends in still birth* That's 8 babies a day in UK
1/10 will end in preterm birth* That's 60,000 prem babies every year & not all of them survive.

A loss is a loss, whatever point you're at in the journey. A family will be
devastated. Hearts broken. Lives changed. Families will grieve.

Not being able to talk about our loss can make us feel guilty, ashamed & extremely lonely. It can stop us reaching out for support or for advice for future pregnancies.

My grief should not make you feel
uncomfortable!

So lets stop encouraging people not to share their pregnancy news until their 12 week scan 'just in case'! If their baby dies they will need support!!
Let's stop demonising those grieving & label them as attention seekers.
Let's stop comparing experiences...grief
