"When a Baby Dies" by Nancy Kohner and Alix Henley (SANDS publication) - very informative with information from doctors and counsellors, and lots of parents' stories.
"Our Babies Have Died - Stories of Miscarriage, Stillbirth and Neonatal Death" also a SANDS publication (no author given) - this is an Australian book published in 2008 which I have found to be very helpful but it makes me cry so I can only read it in short bursts.
"A Silent Sorrow - Pregnancy Loss: Guidance and Support for You and Your Family" by Ingrid Kohn and Perry-Lynn Moffitt. I only receive this last week but so far is very interesting reading. This has a section on becoming pg again.
"Trying Again - A guide to pregnancy after miscarriage, stillbirth and infant loss" by Ann Douglas and John R Sussman. This is the book I am always coming back to at the moment.
I got all of these books on-line at Capers Bookstore in Yarraville, Vic. I think also take orders over the phone. They were very quick with delivery. They have stacks of other books which might be helpful as well. PM if you need any more information. I hope you find it helpful.
Hi Kam, I am so sorry for the loss of your precious daughter. After I lost my daughter in Oct 08, I wanted to try straight away as well. I think a lot of us feel the same, don't want to disrespect our baby and want others to know that we are not replacing the lost one. But I do think its a natural reaction for most to want a baby straight away, so know you are not alone there. All the very best to you. If you do decide to start trying, please join us in the thread next to this one 'ttc after late loss / stillbirth.' Big hugs.
