When families experience a pregnancy loss, it is important to lead with empathy. Empathy can be brief and powerful, and it can help the person feel understood and cared for during an often scary, emotionally difficult time. Sarah, who has suffered through three miscarriages, shared some of her reflections on the experience and advice on supporting families.
Rachel Calvert, child life and music therapy manager at Children’s Minnesota, shares more about how to help kids through the grieving process.

Kairo was born early Saturday morning June 23rd 2018 at 2:29 AM. Mommy's strong little angel! At 11 weeks pregnant I had my first ultrasound which was one of the most amazing moments of my life with you! I remember how active and full of attitude you were, just watching you on the monitor was everything. With joy came worry because the doctor told me that it looked like there was fluid around your tiny heart. I didn't know what that meant and neither did the doctor, I remember how upset I was with him because he couldn't tell me what that truly meant.
