Baby loss
Sadly, sometimes pregnancy can go wrong. You may have a miscarriage, an ectopic pregnancy, birth trauma or the death of the baby.
If your pregnancy ends this way, you will need both information and support. Talk to the people close to you about how you feel. You can also talk to your midwife, doctor, or health visitor about what has happened and why.
