If you have lost a pregnancy, we see you and you’re not alone.💜🌈

10 to 20 of every 100 pregnancies ends in loss. Pregnancy loss can happen to families of all races, ethnicities, income levels, and ages.

You might feel angry, sad, and confused. And you and your partner may show your feelings differently.

🩷 Your body and emotions need time to recover after pregnancy. Take care of yourself to help you heal.
🩵 Get support from your health care provider, a social worker, a grief counselor, or a support group.
💚 Allow yourself time to grieve — and know there is no right way to grieve.
❤️ Find special ways for you and your family to remember your baby.
