Many women do not receive the support they need after having a miscarriage. We underestimate the distress and grief many women experience after such a loss, and it would be fair to say that we pay even less attention to the emotional experiences of their partners.

The Lily Mae Foundation, an organization supporting families after pregnancy loss, offer specific support for Dads.
