Every year in the UK over 10,000 babies die before birth or shortly afterwards. For the parents, the grief is hard to bear. In this book, parents who have lost a baby tell their stories. They speak about what happened, how they felt, how they have been helped by others and how they helped themselves. The book also contains information about why a baby dies, hospital practices, the process of grieving, sources of support, and the care parents need in future pregnancies.
