MISCARRIAGE MANAGEMENT

If you are experiencing heavy bleeding, severe cramping, or passing tissue, you may be having a miscarriage. If you’ve already been diagnosed with an incomplete miscarriage or missed miscarriage, we can provide safe and effective treatment options—without the long waits often found in emergency rooms.

A termination of an anomaly is an abortion performed when a serious fetal abnormality is diagnosed. This decision is usually made when the condition would cause severe suffering, is incompatible with life, or would greatly affect the child’s quality of life. It’s done to prevent medical complications for the pregnant person and to make a compassionate choice for the baby’s future.

For patients facing a termination due to fetal anomalies, we provide compassionate, supportive care. We can offer keepsake footprints, and arrangements can be made through a funeral home for cremation if desired. With a request from your referring physician, we can also send the products of conception for genetic testing to provide answers and closure.

We recommend the following resources to help you during your healing journey:

Ending A Wanted Pregnancy – If you’ve received a severe prenatal or maternal diagnosis and have decided to end your wanted pregnancy, this website exists to provide you understanding, comfort and support. Here, you will find the empathy, compassion and solace you deserve following this uncommon, traumatic and often misunderstood form of pregnancy loss.

MISSFoundation – Since 1996, the MISS Foundation C.A.R.E.S. for families experiencing the death of a baby or child at any age and from any cause.

Pregnancy Loss Support Program (PLSP) from NCJW NY- The National Council of Jewish Women’s Pregnancy Loss Support Program for Miscarriage, Stillborn and Newborn death: “It’s hard to imagine anything more heartbreaking than the loss of a child. Even the most loving friends and family may not understand a grieving parent’s needs, which can lead to additional isolation and sorrow.”

A Heartbreaking Choice – This website supports women who have undergone a pregnancy termination due to poor prenatal diagnosis, problems with their own health, or for the health of another fetus (selective reduction).

The Compassionate Friends – Whether your family has had a child die (at any age from any cause) or you are trying to help those who have gone through this life-altering experience, The Compassionate Friends exists to provide friendship, understanding and hope to those going through the natural grieving process.
