I'm so VERY sorry for your loss. Your baby was so beautiful, it's sickening that the world was robbed of such a little angel.

Dealing with the death of your baby may be one of the most painful experiences in your life. Everyone copes and mourns differently. Perhaps a few of the following suggestions can help you survive some of the difficult times.

• Take care of yourself. Eat well. Get plenty of rest. Stay well physically so that you can continue to heal emotionally.

• Express yourself. Talk about your baby, your feelings, your fears, your grief. Or keep a diary, write a journal, create, start a flower garden. This may help you to see things more clearly. Online Grief Support is a place where you can keep a journal.

• Read written resources. There are many books, articles, poems, and videos that can provide information, guidance, and support.

• Find a support network. Such a network may be your family, your friends, or your faith community. You may want to contact a support group for parents who have experienced the death of a baby, to share your story and feelings and to learn from others who have also "been there".
