Hope and Healing After Stillbirth And New Baby Loss

'Offering wisdom and understanding, written with sensitivity, this book has much practical help within its pages for a loss like that feels like few others' Sands

Whether it happens before or shortly after birth, the loss of a baby brings overwhelming grief and parents often struggle to access the professional help they need.

In this new edition of their compassionate and practical book, Professor Kevin Gournay - who himself lost a child to stillbirth - and distinguished midwife Dr Brenda Ashcroft offer understanding of what it means to go through this bereavement, and healing advice on how to make sense of it. They give important information about parents' rights, and cover such difficult topics as post mortems and inquests.
