Words for a real moment

What to say after pregnancy loss

Say that you are sorry, acknowledge the loss and follow their language. Do not look for a silver lining or ask for details.

Words you can use

A ready-to-send version

I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m thinking of you. Would a short call, a voice note, or simply a quiet message suit you? You do not need to explain anything, and no reply is required. If today is not right, that is completely fine.

A useful approach

  • Say that you are sorry and acknowledge the loss without asking for details.

  • Give them a choice between a brief chat and a message they can answer later.

  • Leave the offer open for today; do not send another message until tomorrow.
