10 Ways to Encourage Someone Who Has Lost a Baby

1. Fill her arms with something to hold.

2. Initiate communication, "How are you today?" However, don't push conversation, she'll talk if she wants/needs to.

3. Don't say, "I know how you feel."

4. Listen, even if what she has to say is something she has said a hundred times.

5. Always use the name of her child.

6. When words fail, share silence or a hug.

7. Always remember special days with a note or gift (mother's day, birthday, day the child passed)

8. Remember, you can always give your Presence & Prayer.

9. Give Kleenex, a CD, book, or personalized piece of jewelry with the child's name engraved.

10. Don't use the phrases "Everything is going to be ok" or "God just must have a different plan for you." They hurt more than they help.
