Miscarriage Support

At MISS, we understand how isolating pregnancy loss can feel. We’re here to provide judgement-free assistance to anyone in Scotland affected by pregnancy loss.

Our Miscarriage Support offers a safe space to share your story or listen to others’ experiences. We also provide practical information about physical and emotional recovery, and gentle self-care guidance tailored to your needs.

Our multi-lingual team brings a wealth of experience in active listening and culturally sensitive care . Further information can be found on our team page.

One-to-One

We have a one-to-one listening service, by phone or video call, where you can share your experiences and feelings. Miscarriage can bring waves of emotions – sadness, anger, loneliness, and everything in between. Please know that your feelings are not something to be ashamed of — they are valid and extremely common. This is a judgement-free, safe space for you to discuss anything on your mind and know that you are not alone.

"A perfect angel from start to finish. She has such a warm and reassuring presence and has been so good at holding space for my grief. I've never felt less alone in my miscarriage experience, than I have after our talks and email exchanges."

“So kind and supportive the whole time, making me feel constantly supported and validated. It was very helpful and cathartic to be able to air out my frustrations and upsets to someone outside my circle”

“It was very useful for me. Before that session I struggled to open up and talk about my experience. The session changed that feeling for me and did take that burden off.”

"She was accepting of my feelings and able to sit with my sadness and anger and allow and validate those feelings instead of trying to make it better or go away"

Virtual Support Group

Miscarriage can feel isolating, and everyone’s experience is unique. Our free monthly virtual groups create a safe space for women and partners to connect, share, and find comfort together.

Sessions are held the second Thursday of each month at 7:30pm via Zoom. Participants are supported to share their stories, thoughts, and emotions in a judgement-free environment. We discuss a range of topics, including self-care and how to cope with grief.

What to Expect:

A safe, supportive environment where:

  • Everything shared is completely confidential and privacy is paramount

  • You can participate as much or as little as you like – no pressure to speak

  • All beliefs, backgrounds, and family situations are respected

To help everyone feel comfortable:

  • Find a quiet, private space to join

  • Cameras-on is encouraged to help build trust

  • Mute your microphone when not speaking

  • Be kind and compassionate - everyone grieves in their own way

"I'm so grateful for the compassionate support I received through MISS during one of the hardest times of my life. I found the support, suggestions, and information really helpful, and it was incredibly comforting to connect with other women and realise I wasn’t the only one going through this.”

“The virtual support group helped me feel less alone, and gave me a safe space to share without judgment. Knowing these services were free made it much easier to reach out. The warmth and understanding of the support team truly made a difference in my healing journey."

“I didn't know what to expect or how it would be but it was useful and made me realise what I am feeling is normal. I felt comfortable enough to speak about my thoughts and experiences and found comfort in hearing from others who know what it's like”.

"Being able to attend support groups virtually meant I could share my story, and heal, from the comfort of home. It meant the world to me knowing that I was not alone in how I was feeling."
