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.
