October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month
October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. 🤍
For a lot of parents, the hardest part of losing a pregnancy or a baby isn't only the loss. It's the quiet that comes after. Friends don't know what to say, so they say nothing. Family changes the subject. And parents end up carrying it alone.
At NechamaComfort, we sit with families after miscarriage, stillbirth, and infant loss — in the hospital, in our support groups, and in one-on-one counseling. This month, we're asking our whole community to help break that quiet.
Over the next few weeks we'll share what grieving parents wish you knew, how to show up for someone you love, and how you can remember with us on October 15.
We're also opening our Names We Carry Wall today. If you'd like, you can add your baby's name, and on October 15 we'll hold every name as we light our candles. 🤍
If this month is hard for you, take what you need and leave the rest.
You do not have to walk this path alone.
