Too Soon

One in four pregnancies end in miscarriage, a traumatic experience for any woman, but one in which she typically feels alone.

This 30-day devotional helps mothers who have lost children start to come to terms with what has happened. The purpose of thhis book is to inform, encourage and support all women who have experienced pregnancy loss, enabling them to find the strength they need to move forward.

Here are 30 reflections on the topic of losing a baby. The author herself suffered four miscarriages, and writes compassionately and personally. Each piece is followed by a meditation and space for personal reflection. The book ends with a liturgy for a lost child, and is attractively designed.
