dc.description.abstract | This paper describes the experience of three women
who had experienced early miscarriage within the
previous 12 months. Three major themes of loss
emerged: the loss of a baby, the loss of the role of
motherhood and the loss of the hopes and dreams the
women possessed for their baby. These losses were
complicated by the women’s negative thoughts about
the care they received while in hospital, their
perceptions of health professional’s negative attitudes,
the lack of information given to them, and the lack of
understanding shown by family and friends about
their situation. The authors recommend a number of
changes to practice including the need for an increased
sensitivity towards women following early miscarriage. | |
