Miscarriage is the term given to the loss of a baby before it reaches full term. Often, people regard this as bad luck, particularly if it happens in the early weeks of pregnancy.

Loss is a part of life. If we are not experiencing it at the moment, most likely we are close to someone who is. Seeing our loved ones hurt can make us feel powerless and ineffective, and it is the number one question that I hear when I speak and meet others.
