Miscarriage Quotes For Comfort And Healing

Miscarriage quotes that friends and family sent that brought comfort as I navigated recurrent pregnancy loss.

When someone finds out you’ve had a miscarriage, it can often put them in an uncomfortable spot. Maybe they don’t know what to say at all (that’s OK!) or they say something with good intentions that stings unintentionally (it happens!). 

Listen, no one is going to get it right all of the time. Here are some of the miscarriage quotes we got in cards, or texts, that helped both me and Dane navigate loss.
