Miscarriage is a devastaing loss to navigate. In 2021, Simeon and I lost a baby that we named Victory. That was a dark trial for us to walk through as a couple, but it was a loss that also affected our entire family. Though our children were young, we decided to tell them of their sibling that went to heaven.
I have been asked before for advice on helping your children process miscarriage. Every family grieves differently, and ultimately if you tell and how much you tell your child is up to the discretion of the parents. I will say from our experience, it has been good for our entire family to be able to speak of and remember our baby.
In this episode, Simeon and I share advice on how you can navigate this heartbreaking topic with your children, giving space to grieve while claiming the hope that is found in Christ.
