A friend I have that lives in CA, I am in NC, had a baby girl that lived only 3 hours. We used to work together and everyone wants to send something but not a flower arrangement, what should we send?
What to send to friend whose baby died??
I Have had a loss myself. I will tell you what was helpful to me.
1. Rescue Remedy (flower tincture)
2. Ignatia (Homeopathic remedy)
3. Valerian (sleep aid)
4. A necklace/bracelet with her baby's name or some kind words like Mother of an Angel and birthdate (2 one for mamma and one for daddy and any for siblings too).
5. Google resources in her area and perhaps include the ones I list below so she won't need to be alone with her pain.
6. If you can make a note in your calendar to remember her on mother's day and on the baby's birth day. And if there is an involved father, father's day (which is coming up)
7. Candles and Herbal Tea are calming
(you can get the stuff online or in your local herbal/natural food store)
I am So Very Sorry for her loss.
Here are some resources you/she may find helpful:
I just created a website with helpful tips and resources including a section on "how to help" for friends:

There are two web forums that are very close to my heart.
There are Moms on there who have experienced losses.
I go to both forums. It is so helpful to have other moms to talk with.
