So how long should you wait before you share that thing?

The one that you really think could help and you’re really sure no one else has told them about it already?

And you’re really sure they haven’t tried to ChatGPT for their problem already? That they don’t know how to google search?

Wait until later.

Maybe it’s not until the next time you speak. Or see each other. And then you gently say, “Hey, you know I was thinking about our conversation from last time, and I was wondering if you…”

Or maybe you don’t bring it up until they share something with you about it again.

-bottom line- the important thing is that you hold space for them when theirs breaking down. Period. Don’t try to fix them. Save your advice for sometime later.

Silence can feel like a secondary loss

Reminder: if you ignore the uncomfortable, then you’re contributing to the pain.

The question is how to be supportive, but not pushy, judgey or insensitive.

Do you want people to acknowledge that you’re going through something? Even if it’s just a “I’m thinking of you?” Or do you prefer that people just pretend nothing is going on?

Baby Loss Reminders

A Brief Reminder on What To Say vs. What Not To Say To Someone After Pregnancy Loss ❤️

Remember, those struggling with grief after pregnancy loss are not looking for silver linings after loss, they just want to feel validated & supported. No matter how far along, how young they may be, how long they’ve been trying, how many losses they’ve had, how many children they have, or how easily pregnancy came to them, their loss matters and their grief is valid ❤️
