St. Joseph Regional Medical Center’s Infant Loss Group provides support to individuals and families who have experienced loss through miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, stillbirth, or death of a newborn or child up to one year of age.
When someone experiences a perinatal loss, feelings of isolation, guilt, and a sense that no one understands what they’re going through may occur. It is essential to know that many others have known this type of loss; in fact, one in five pregnancies ends in a miscarriage, and one in 100 experiences a stillbirth.
While perinatal loss is all too common, each grief journey is individual. Being with others who understand what you are going through is often comforting. We offer support through educational handouts, community events, and small group meetings. Meetings are facilitated by a Registered Nurse educated in this type of loss, and there is no charge to participate in these meetings.
