Coping With Miscarriage

Dealing With Loss

Pregnancy loss is one of the most challenging obstacles any woman can face. From the emotional roller-coasters to the endless second-guessing (“What did I do wrong, or what could I have done differently?”), there is certainly no shortage of anguish.

Turning Point Pregnancy Resource Center is available to help with the many emotions following a miscarriage, whether it’s the marital strain caused by pregnancy loss or specific things you can do to help with dealing with this loss.

Here are some facts about miscarriage:

• Miscarriages occur in roughly 15-20% of recognized pregnancies.
• Most miscarriages occur in the first trimester.
• The odds are against multiple miscarriages; only 1% of women experience recurrent miscarriages.
• About 1 in 3 pregnancies end in miscarriages.
• Some risk factors for miscarriage include age, family health history, alcohol, and drug use, and Body Mass Index (BMI).
• Someone you know has experienced miscarriage firsthand – even if they haven’t told you.
• The mental, physical, and spiritual impact of miscarriage affects women differently. Recovery can last weeks, months, or even years.
