Miscarriage & Abortion Support

Like birth, the unexpected or planned end of a pregnancy can greatly benefit from in-person comfort and reassurance during the process.

Many people after having a miscarriage or abortion will say afterwards “I wish I had someone with me!”.

Without support, clients having a medication abortion or miscarriage at home can often feel concerned about normal blood loss and normal discomforts, but are quite easily comforted and reassured with experienced support through the process.

Having doula support for your miscarriage or abortion can shift what is too often described as a stressful and lonely experience to a comforted and even positive one.
