New survey – pregnancy loss and mental health

2nd August 2018

The Miscarriage Association is there for anyone who has been affected by miscarriage, ectopic or molar pregnancy. At the moment we are thinking about pregnancy loss and mental health.

You don’t need a particular diagnosis to experience poor mental health. We know lots of you have experienced ongoing difficult feelings and experiences relating to your loss or losses. Or you have told us that your loss or losses made existing mental health problems harder to cope with. Sometimes it’s a bit of both.

We’d like to find out more about your experiences – if you have experienced pregnancy loss yourself, or as a partner. If you feel able, please help us by filling in our survey, which will be open until 9 August.

We’d also like to hear from people who don’t know about us at the moment. If you feel comfortable doing so, please share this survey (www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/mcandmhmaweb) on any local parenting or pregnancy related Facebook groups you think might be relevant.

Thank you!
