Loving you from here - Susan Clark

Few experiences can compare to the trauma and pain of losing a baby; and the wall of silence that often surrounds that loss can make grieving even harder.

Loving You From Here explores the traumatic impact of losing a baby through stillbirth and neonatal death. It features the moving stories of multiple families; some affected recently, some decades ago, but still living with the loss. This book is a practical guide for grieving parents in the grips of tragedy, and those around them who want to be able to offer support. From managing those initial feelings of shock, grief, guilt and anger, this book will also show families how it is possible to grow around that grief and eventually form an enduring bond with their baby.

This profound and insightful book will help everyone impacted by the loss of a baby - before, during or after birth - including those who have suffered an early or a late miscarriage and those who have had an ectopic pregnancy, and provides sensitive and reassuring advice on all aspects of loss and bereavement, as well as practical advice on how to find a new normal.

This groundbreaking book breaks through the suffocating silence that surrounds the death of a baby and gives a voice to all those affected by baby loss.

The Sands charity (the leading stillbirth and neonatal charity in the UK) was started over 40 years ago by two mothers who had suffered stillbirths and realised how little support was available to them. Sands support anyone affected by the death of a baby and work in partnership with healthcare professionals to ensure that bereaved parents and families receive the best possible care. They also promote improvements in practice and fund research to help reduce the number of babies dying. They can be found at www.sands.org.uk.
