The Miscarriage Map can be an invaluable tool to someone who has lost a child. It was written by Dr. Sunita Osborne, a woman considered an expert on pregnancy loss.

Something else that is great about this book is it’s an easy, but in-depth read. It can really help someone navigate miscarriage but isn’t as intimidating as a longer, more challenging book. Some of the topics covered include your body after a miscarriage, how miscarriage impacts relationships, and other struggles (like disliking pregnant people).

This is a great way to give her the option to either just relax, or talk about it if she needs to.

Price$$$
Popularity

Grieving Dads: To the Brink and Back is a book on child loss written with Dad in mind. A lot of literature out there looks at experiencing miscarriage as a couple or as a woman, but not always what Dad feels.

This book has heartbreaking tales of child loss and features some real honesty. Dads talk about their darkest moments, contemplating suicide, self-medication, and so much more. What all these Dads have in common, though, is that they were at the brink… and they all managed to find their way back.

Day of Golfing/Fishing

Sometimes, the best gift you can do is be with someone after they’ve experienced a loss. If that dad in your life enjoys golfing, fishing, or something else relaxing, offer to take him out for a day. Something like golfing or fishing is nice because it gives you the opportunity to talk if he wants to. However, if he decides that he doesn’t want to talk, that’s okay, too. 

A day outside of the house may also help. Often, people are living in the same place that they were imagining life with their baby-to-be. Being away from that place for the day could offer a much-needed break.

Meal Delivery Service

Anyone who has experienced the loss of someone close to them will tell you that eating is difficult and finding the energy to prepare food is even harder. While meal kits might be a little bit too much when someone is struggling, complete meals that can be easily reheated take the stress out of food prep. 

An alternative to a meal delivery service is preparing food yourself and dropping it off. You should think of something that can easily be reheated like casserole or meatballs or lasagna. Spending a night cooking with them if you are close might also be a good idea to help them relax for a little bit and have some company. Alternatively, start a collection and have people contribute toward a gift card for Uber Eats, DoorDash, GrubHub, or another delivery service. 

Babysitting Offer

It can be overwhelming for parents dealing with the loss of a child to handle everything in the day-to-day. If you’re close, you can offer to take the kids to sports practice one day or give the parents a night by themselves. This simple gesture is one that they will really appreciate, especially since miscarriage is hard on both parents, as well as their relationship as a whole. Even when they already have other children, they still deserve a chance to grieve the loss of their baby. 

Plant a Tree

Sometimes, the best way to cope with loss is to focus on new life. Planting a tree in remembrance of a couple’s lost child is a great way to send a message that you care. While you may need to contact local areas about programs available, there are good chances there is a company offering this service near you. Any tree will work. However, oak trees are known for their strength and longevity and they are a popular choice. If there aren’t any programs locally, there are also national programs available through the USDA and the Arbor Day Foundation.

FAQs – Gifts For Miscarriage

Is it appropriate to give someone who miscarried a gift? 

Giving a gift to someone who miscarried is a quick way to remind them that you care. By definition, a miscarriage is the death of a baby that happens before 20 weeks in the womb. Since it happens in the first trimester in most cases, many women don’t share their loss except with those closest to them. It is appropriate to do something or buy a gift for someone who has miscarried. It’s a great way to express sympathy and remind them that you care, especially if they trusted you enough to confide in you. 

What can you do for someone who miscarried?

The best thing you can do for someone who miscarried is to be observant and try to do whatever they need most. Some people want to talk about what happened, while others may want you to sit in silence with them so they don’t have to be alone. Preparing a meal, giving a food gift card, or something similar might also be a good way to show you care without overwhelming the person. You can even leave food or gift on their porch if they don’t seem prepared to see visitors at the time. There are plenty of ways to show support and that you care. 

Do you send flowers to someone who had a miscarriage?

Yes, you can send flowers to someone who had a miscarriage. Flowers are common following a death or tragedy because they are bright and cheerful. They are a celebration of life that helps improve the atmosphere. In some cases, flowers can even symbolize healing. 

Brightening someone’s atmosphere may be especially helpful in the home. Another alternative is buying wildflowers or something that can be grown. These add beauty to life, despite tragedy. If you are going to buy flowers, send some that are easy to grow.
