What a phenomenal and much needed project for bereaved parents. After the stillbirth of my daughter at 32 weeks, I did not have the confidence or desire to join the 'regular' postpartum classes and be questioned why I was not bringing a baby with me. So I joined a delightful group of pensioners. I gained strength and rehabbed my broken body with them, and only the teacher knew my story (perfect for me at the time). I wish I had this option of finding support in other bereaved mothers, though. A fabulous and thoughtful care option - with the ability to expand to pregnancy after loss classes too, I imagine.
