Title
Miscarriage Support Auckland - understanding miscarriage
Description
Miscarriage Support Auckland Inc. is a team of volunteers of various ages who have all experienced the loss of our own babies. While recognising that everybody's experience is unique, we understand the pain and isolation that often follows miscarriage and the need for emotional support. This website is a reflection of our knowledge and experience and will hopefully be useful in helping you come to terms with your grief.
As a group we feel the word 'miscarriage' does not adequately or sensitively describe what is often the trauma associated with an early pregnancy death. What we experienced was both a birth and a death. A more appropriate name that would better describe and validate our feelings would be 'premature stillbirth'.
We are a small non-profit, NGO (non-governmental organisation) incorporated society that started in 1985 with two women looking for answers. There are now ten groups nation-wide and they all operate differently. Some are dedicated to miscarriage, others offer miscarriage support as well as other services e.g. In Christchurch, miscarriage is a part of SANDS (Stillbirth and New-born Death Support).
