Early Pregnancy Loss

It includes information on the likely course of early pregnancy loss. It also suggests some likely reasons for these losses. It gives information on feelings which could be felt after such a loss. Suggestions are made on how to cope with some difficult situations and it talks a little about possible subsequent pregnancy and support during this time.

My Empty Arms

This 12 page pamphlet is written as a guide for parents whose baby dies through Stillbirth, Miscarriage, Neo-Natal Death or Early Infant Death. It includes facts on likely causes of these losses, how to create memories and why, making funeral arrangements, coping with your grief, helping your children and other family and friends to cope, coping with a new pregnancy and other resources for support.

Certificate of Name Giving

SANDS (SA) also has a Certificate of Name Giving which was created by the Co-founders of SANDS (SA) Harold and Ann Jones. It is intended to be mainly used by parents who have little or no other memories of their baby. i.e. those whose baby died many years ago or those whose baby died during early pregnancy.
