Customer Reviews

I'm not alone

I am so thankful that I found this book! Although no one story exactly matched my experience with my miscarriage, I could relate to portions of almost every story, so that instead of feeling alone and lost I felt comforted, heard and understood. (I was doubly comforted by the fact that many of these women were from my geographical area!) I'm slowly coming to grips with the technical aspects of my miscarriage, but dealing with the emotions has been hard. Reading others' stories has been remarkably healing for me and has encourage me to share my story with others as well. I very highly recommend this book for those struggling with the emotional roller-coaster of miscarriage.

Deeply healing

After the loss of my first pregnancy, I found this book. I was touched to my soul by the pain I found mirrored in the stories I read. I felt less lonely and more hopeful afterwards.

A wonderful book to help with your healing

Having just suffered my first pregnancy loss, I was having a hard time understanding the grieving process. This book was such a wonderful insight for me. It has helped me to turn to poetry, journal writing and talking openly with my spouse. I learned that everyone grieves differently, even though we have all suffered a loss. I will recommend this book to anyone I know who suffers a miscarriage.
