Pregnancy After Loss

Whether you’re feeling hopeful, anxious, detached, or all of the above, pregnancy after loss is complex. This page offers resources to support you in whatever you’re carrying today.

Handouts

Our Parent Share and What's Next handouts are designed to download and print, offering gentle guidance through difficult conversations and decisions during the labor and delivery or induction process. Each guide is thoughtfully written to help families feel informed, supported, and less alone in an otherwise overwhelming moment.

Keepsakes

We understand that the idea of creating keepsakes of a baby who has will soon pass, or has passed might feel awkward (or even disrespectful). We want to reassure you that it’s ok. Our Parent Share handouts on Keepsakes & Photography are designed to download and print, offering other parent’s perspectives and experiences, as well as ideas for creating keepsakes.

Books & Articles

This thoughtfully curated book list is designed to support and comfort parents who are grieving the loss of a child. Each title offers a unique perspective on grief—some through personal stories of loss, others through practical guidance or spiritual reflection. We hope this collection offers moments of solace, understanding, and gentle encouragement as you navigate life after loss.

Videos

If you feel like it would be helpful, please take a moment to watch a video another loss family graciously chose to share of their children meeting their baby brother Lawson. Our hope is that it will ease some of your fears over how this moment may look.
