What to say to someone who has just had a miscarriage — my story

Miscarriage is a horrible thing for anybody to go through and unfortunately, it’s quite common. Around 1 in 3 pregnancies will end in miscarriage, also known as early pregnancy loss. The chances of it happening goes down as the pregnancy progresses, and the highest risk time is in the first 12 weeks.

It’s usually a devastating thing to happen at any stage of pregnancy. So what on earth do you say to someone who just suffered one?
