Bereavement
Coping with the loss of a baby can be a difficult time for the
whole family. Specialist health professionals are available to
support you and advise you on issues you may face.
Facing hard decisions
Hearing that it would be best to limit or stop your baby’s intensive care is
devastating and very few parents feel emotionally prepared to deal with
this. You may disagree with the medical staff or even with your partner
about it. You may feel that you are just not ready to make that decision.
