Prince William And Kate Middleton Speak Up About Baby Loss On Social Media

The topic is something Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton is passionate about. I know many people won’t understand the pain behind miscarriages, and I say this knowing that most people don’t consider miscarriage as death, but it’s something women and families go through and the experience can be excruciating.

The worst part of the experience is that women who have painfully witnessed a miscarriage don’t often have the support they need, even from their spouses. I’m speaking knowing that a woman I’ve known for years miscarried a baby and the husband didn’t feel the need to act like something big happened (they have four kids at the time).

Miscarriage is something that women often frightfully go through alone

Princess Catherine Names Her Favorite Charities Supporting Women Dealing With Baby Loss

In honor of this year’s baby loss awareness week in the UK, Princess Catherine and Prince William sympathized with families who have gone through the unwanted experience.

They also listed channels that someone suffering from pregnancy loss can go to to receive professional help.

As a champion for mental health, early years development and support for families, Princess Catherine has worked with some of these charities in the past.

“Taking a moment this #BabyLossAwarenessWeek to think about all those who’ve been affected by pregnancy and baby loss,” the Waleses wrote on Twitter.

“In this thread there are organisations and resources that are providing support and advice to families and loved ones who need it most.

“Child Bereavement UK, @cbukhelp, offers a support helpline if you’ve been affected by child bereavement at any time. Please do reach out if you feel it could help you or someone you know.

“The @MMHAlliance brings together 120 organisations, raising awareness of mental health before, during and after pregnancy, whatever the outcome.

“One of these is @SandsUK that supports anyone affected by the death of a baby, improve the care that bereaved parents receive, and create a world where fewer babies die.

“The team at @Tommys support parents-to-be and research into miscarriage, premature birth and stillbirth.

“They have free resources available and, if you’re struggling, advise you to be kind to yourself and know support is available.”
