So sad at the moment

i just found out that one of my good friends baby was stillborn.
i cant believe that happened, the baby was very active and every scan came back with normal results everything was fine.
the doctors dont know why and the results of an autopsy arent available yet, has this happened to you or someone you know?

what can i say to her, i'm lost for words.

That is absolutely tragic, a waking nightmare. I would say that there is nothing you can say, other than how sorry you are. Be there for your friend, even in silence. I'm sure it will be a long process of grief, and she'll need different things at different times.

I don't think there is anything you can say to her but just to be there and be a shoulder to cry on. I'm very sorry for your friend's loss.

i will do my best for her.

i am only 10weeks behind her, when i see her i dont want to be the one thing that reminds her of what she lost. i dont want to make her any more upset then she already is, i know there is no way around it though.

i cant imagine what this is like for her.

Gosh that's awful. My grandma was 16 and she had a stillborn baby as her 1st baby, they wouldnt even let her see it and took it away. All she ever knew was that it died just before birth, that it was large, and a girl. So sad

So sad. I think right now nothing will take away her pain but let her know you are there for her. Fly high little one

So sorry to hear, things like this are so scary for pregnant women and I am sad for her going through this nightmare!

I will keep her in my prayers
