Through her own experience with miscarriage as well as through the voices of other parents who have suffered the devastation of their baby's death, psychologist Hannah Lothrop guides parents through the experience of bereavement, from shock and disbelief to renewal and growth.

So ein wichtiges Buch für alle, die einen frühen Verlust erleiden mussten und für alle, die Betroffene betreuen. (Mediziner, Hebammen, Pflege etc.)

This book required me to not be narrow-minded. The first chapter delineates terrifying hard lines on the frequency of infant loss. I put my walls up after chapter one. Then I started skimming instead of reading. The author delves into very "new-agey" ways to cope. I scoffed.

After I read another grief book, I came back to this one, softened. When I reread this one, I found a few good coping tools! While other grief books focus on how it's normal to feel a particular way and provide quotes form other parents who have lost, this one tries to put tools in your tool bag of self-help. I rather appreciated that.

[Danielle · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a great book for those who have been touched by the loss of a baby including family and friends of someone who has lost a baby. I also think its a great read for caregivers, physicians, nurses, midwives and bereavement counselors. If you are looking for the right words and right things to do for others.

This book is full of useful, practical information. I got it from the library just a few days after my second stillbirth (but first in the hospital), and wish I could have read it before. Highly recommend.

It was helpful to me at a difficult time. I found other books that I related to more, but this one is still good. I would recommend this to anyone that has lost a baby.
