hope, support & community for the

of women finding joy after pregnancy & infant loss

When someone you love loses a baby, you feel helpless.

Not only are you grieving for her and with her, you often don’t know what to do or how to help.

But the best thing you can do is show up.

She isn’t expecting perfection. She isn’t expecting you to fix this. She knows you can’t.

She just needs her friends and her family to remind her that she’s loved and that it’s ok for her to grieve in the way that feels right to her. And that her baby is not forgotten.

But how do you do this? That’s where we come in.

“Thank you so much for your uplifting care to families traveling what sometimes feels like a very solitary, dark pathway.”

— Paula, 1st Trimester Loss Mom & Director of Perinatal Grief Support at her local Pregnancy Center
