If you had one piece of advice to give women who have just experienced a loss on moving on after a miscarriage, what would it be?

My advice would be, do whatever you want to do to remember your child. Don't let other people's opinions get in the way of your grief or your memories. Don't be afraid or ashamed to speak of your child and focus on the happy memories you have.

My advice would be not to move on. Focus on all of the emotions, and take your time. Don't feel pressured to get back to normal or move on. As long as you let yourself go through the grieving process, you will eventually start getting a little stronger day by day. Then, you transform into a new person, and can use everything you have been through to help define who this new person will be. I also got a rememberance item for each loss, a blanket, teddy bear, and a memory box for the most recent one. I curl up with the blanket and teddy bear when it gets tough. Also, I read a lot, and researched so I could educate myself and look at ways to prevent it from happening again. I know you asked for one thing, but that is my advice!
