The Beautiful Before by Heather Carnaghan
The Beautiful Before is a heart-wrenching collection that tells the true story of a mother's excitement for new life, unexpected profound loss, and navigating a new landscape while carrying complex grief. Stillbirth occurs in one in every 160 births in the United States, though the lack of social support for this kind of death makes many parents retreat into silence. Explore this collection of poetry in order to allow the story to unfold, or read/share selected pieces that support you or a friend through a similar stage of loss.
