October is National Pregnancy Loss Awareness Month

Click the post title for About.com's article on this important subject. We also have posts on this site that deal with loss in pregnancy. It's every woman's nightmare, but miscarriage is actually quite common so learning about it and knowing you aren't alone can sometimes help. Fortunately stillbirth is less common, but still something to be aware of.

Learn to do kick counts (third trimester) and become familiar with your baby's movement patterns, attend your prenatal appointments and take care of yourself to make your pregnancy as safe as possible.
