One of my coping mechanisms was reading everything thing I could get my hands on.

Gone Too Soon: The Life and Loss of Infants and Unborn Children

Sherri Devashrayee Wittwer


Mourning With Those Who Mourn

Steven C Walker & Jane D Brady

Non-LDS

Empty Cradle, Broken Heart

Deborah L Davis

Surviving Pregnancy Loss

Rochelle Friedman Bonnie Gradstein




Gone Too Soon is defiantly the best on my list. If you have access to one I would encourage you to find a support group as well. I don't know how I would have made it through my grief if I had not found the group I attended for several years. I was able to actual see and hear other people who had been through similar losses. And I could see that they were making it but having just as hard of a time as I was. It really helped me deal with my emotions; I could see myself as normal in that group. I went to three different groups before I found one that I felt like I fit in, it was discouraging at first but I was really able to move forward once I found the right group for me.
