Emotional Health

After the loss of a pregnancy, it is common to feel anger, grief, guilt and/or shame. You may also question your spiritual beliefs or feel a sense of relief or empowerment.  It is possible, and normal, to feel all or none of these.  It is also quite normal to have feelings that seem to contradict each other.  For example, some people feel a sense of sadness and a sense of relief at the same time.
