Gone So Soon - Pregnancy Infant Child - Loss and Grieving

If you have lost a pregnancy, infant, or child for any reason, my heart flies out to you. I began this collection of resources out of my own grief for my two lost pregnancies, so it is tilted toward pregnancy loss, but I will be adding more general grief and loss sites soon. These were sites that in some way helped me, either with a suggestion, or information, or a symbolic action that enabled me to work through some of my grief. I hope you find something that helps in some small way.
