The loss of a baby touches so many
people in profound and long lasting ways. No two individuals grieve in exactly
the same manner. The mother may grieve differently from the father. Children
who were expecting their sibling to come home from the hospital experience
their own grief as well. Even grandparents and close friends may be deeply
affected. The ripple effects from the loss of a baby are widely felt.
The March of Dimes is committed to
preventing premature birth, birth defects and infant mortality. It is our hope
that through continued research, we will have a positive impact on the lives of
all babies so that fewer families will ever know the pain of losing a child.
If you or someone you know has lost
a baby, we hope that our online community, Share Your Story will be a place of comfort
and support to you. There, you will find other parents who have walked in your
shoes and can relate to you in ways that other people cannot. Log on to “talk”
with other parents who will understand your grief. We also have bereavement
materials available free of charge. Simply send a request to AskUs@marchofdimes.org
and we will mail them out to you.
Please know that the March of Dimes
is thinking of you today and every day.
