How can I cope with an early pregnancy loss?

Give yourself time to grieve

Our society gives surprisingly little support to families who have lost a baby to miscarriage. For those outside of the immediate family (and frequently for everyone but the mother herself) the baby wasn't "real" yet. Yet you who carried him or her in your body, even for a brief time, knew and loved this baby. Don't let anyone downplay the seriousness of your loss. Take as much time as you need to mourn your loss.
