Being pregnant

"It was as if I'd been in a plane crash in which someone I loved had died, and getting pregnant again was like getting back on a plane again." Mother

 Any pregnancy that follows the death of a baby is likely to be an emotional roller coaster of anticipation and worry for both parents. It may be very difficult to talk about how you feel to your friends and family: they are likely to expect and want you to be happy and to “move on”. Having to contain your anxiety and other feelings is likely to add to the stress you feel: you may find it helpful to talk to a health professional, or to talk to other bereaved parents who have been through the same experience.
