- Loss of a pregnancy can be a sad and distressing experience, but it is not uncommon. It is thought that possibly one in every two conceptions ends in miscarriage. Often the period is a few days late and more heavy and painful than usual. In this situation, a woman may not even think of a pregnancy. Over one in six recognised pregnancies ends in miscarriage and almost a quarter of women will experience a miscarriage in their lifetime.
The information given in this leaflet may help you to cope with the loss of your pregnancy at this difficult time. We have tried to provide answers to some of the questions you are likely to have.
