Sometimes, even when we do everything we can to have a healthy baby, something goes wrong. Parents who experience miscarriage, stillbirth or the loss of a baby within the first month of life often feel alone and have many questions. These parents need support, understanding and answers to what went wrong and a way to think about the future.
The March of Dimes Bereavement Kit is designed especially for parents who experience the loss of a child from conception through the first month of life. Buy the complete kit or component pieces.
