Would you send an announcement to a friend who just

lost their baby (in the 2nd trimester)

I hope it doesn't sound like a stupid question...but I just found out a friend lost their child...

I'm sending announcements out....I was going to send her a "thinking of you" card too

is that appropriate?Chat Icon

That's a tough one. I probably would not.

But I would hang on to one for her, maybe to give her later on.

Good luck...

As someone who lost their own son, I absloutely agree. Everybody handles things differently, but it could potentially put her in a bad place. It can really be heartbreaking for the mother because although it is a totally different child and situation, it reminds her of what she lost. It is a devastating feeling, especially so soon after the loss. I also like to tell people to keep this in mind regarding holiday cards and such, I feel it is always a good idea to feel the person out first.

maybe you can send it later- like with the holiday card or something.

No way.

I would send a thinking of you card but would not include one photo or piece of info about your baby.
