\n Support for You<\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/h2> \n \n

While many grieving moms feel supported by their friends & family after pregnancy or infant loss, many others experience the opposite. Grief after baby loss is so lonely and so many times those in our lives don't know what to do. Even those with the best of intentions can say or do hurtful things to us when we're already in pain. So often we don't even know what we need. It can all feel so hard.
We want to say thank you for being here. It is not easy to love someone who is grieving. We, as grieving moms can be difficult to love and difficult to understand and the relationship will be mostly one sided for quite some time but I will tell you this -- loving her in this season is worth it. It's worth the tears, the prayers, the seemingly fruitless and thankless endeavors. It's worth it because a friendship that walks through suffering together grows deep and lasting roots. And you can be 100% sure that the effort you are putting forth into loving her is helping to heal her broken heart.

She may not be able to verbalize that right away but as someone who has been there I can promise you that you are a conduit of God's grace and healing to her in this season and that will produce forever fruit in both of you. We pray these resources help you love the grieving mom in your life even better.<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n \n <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Perinatal Bereavement Training. (Health care professionals and Care providers).<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

As the experts in Perinatal Bereavement Care, we work with health care providers and key decision- makers to improve care and support. Having lived experience as a team has helped us come up with a curriculum in tune with the hiccups and missing pieces for any woman or couple who grow through either pregnancy loss, infant loss or fertility challenges from the health care center to home setting to work place and church or society as a whole. This training is teaching on kindness, empathy, care and identifying key points of closure that will help greatly in the healing process e.g. taking photos of the baby, allowing the mother and father to spend time with their baby either holding the baby or cleaning the baby depending on how old they are, organize for baptism of the baby etc. These all become points of closure because the parents get to internalize and acknowledge the death of their baby.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Parent- Led grief sessions<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Bereaved parents and couples dealing with fertility challenges have one thing in common, they all want to be heard! They want people to acknowledge their grief, their babies\u2019 anniversaries, say their babies name; that\u2019s what Vessel Is Me has mastered. Being angel parents ourselves, we know the days that are sensitive, the months that will have to double down on comforting and letting the angel parents know we are available for them.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

We have partnered with clinical psychologists, psychiatrists and Marriage counselors to give the fathers and mothers in our community a holistic approach to their grief. We believe that grief is NOT linear, and there\u2019s multiple layers to it. Our Peer supporters have been trained to identify when a mother or father or couple need further professional support, and we know created partnerships to aid in this area.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Support group sessions.<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We started a program called Therapy Tribe, which is support group from bereaved parents and couples dealing with fertility challenges. On March 2019, we had our first gathering, only women showed up. No surprise there. We started at 6pm and ended at 11 pm, women were looking for a space to pour out their hearts and just be heard. They felt supported, they had a friend, they were heard. The next session was moved to a Saturday 3pm \u2013 7pm, we needed ample time to listen to each woman and identify the help they needed, Most needed encouragement, prayers and therapy sessions. Therapy Tribe showed us that these women needed to know that they were not alone in this journey.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
