the pregnancy and baby loss guided journal: your space to process, grieve, and heal after miscarriage, stillbirth, or other reproductive loss

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.

Written by renowned mental health and wellness experts, New Harbinger’s Journals for Change combine evidence-based psychology with proven-effective guided journaling techniques to help you make lasting personal change--one page at a time.
