A safe space to process and heal from your loss.

If you’ve experienced pregnancy loss due to miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, or other causes-or have lost a baby due to stillbirth-you are not alone. It’s important for you to make space for your grief and loss. And although nothing can ever quite heal the pain of losing a child, there are steps you can take to work through feelings of despair and look to the future with renewed hope. This compassionate journal will help guide you.

Full of invitations to reflect, writing and meditative practices, and gentle affirmations, The Pregnancy and Baby Loss Guided Journal offers a safe space to honor your child; process difficult thoughts and feelings; and heal from miscarriage, stillbirth, or other reproductive loss. You’ll find powerful activities and prompts to help you develop self-compassion, manage intense emotions in healthy ways, and rediscover hope as you move forward in your life.

Regardless of the amount of time you carried your baby, this journal is for you.

Losing a pregnancy or baby is often a shocking and devastating experience for bereaved parents who are left not knowing how to grieve or process the horror of the event. This journal provides a concrete way for bereaved parents to put their feelings to words and make meaning of this traumatic experience. Rooted in twenty years of clinical practice, Rabinor's thoughtful prompts, practices, and journal exercises invite these parents to reflect, process, and grieve their loss(es), and begin to heal.

Rabinor provides an excellent and comprehensive set of tools and exercises to help process any type of reproductive loss in this book. It is well researched and self-paced. I believe there is a richness in the loving-kindness used here which could be used for many difficult life events.

Rabinor has captured the essential elements to assist when grieving the unspeakable loss of a baby in pregnancy or shortly after birth. As a therapist, she uses the best techniques we know to guide the reader, utilizing the powerful tool of journaling. Documenting the process and feelings, the reader feels truly understood and supported with practices that validate this profound grief experience. This journal is a must-have resource for clinicians and mourning parents.
