What a loving, courageous couple. I am not sure if the Bonnie Babes foundation offer counselling online - but if you can contact Dianne McGreal through their website, she is a psychologist who specialises in grief and trauma counselling and has done studies into the effects of 'pregnancy loss' (Sounds such a euphemism doesnt it?) Di trains grief counsellors and has lost babies of her own and can suggest lovely rituals -  they do have an email contact address on this page so if you would like to contact Di, ask specifically.
 
 
 
There is also a booklet available for download on this page with parents stories and stories about other children in families whose babies have died.  A very good book is "A Silent Love" by Adrienne Ryan -the part that I most remember is that when her twins were still born, nobody acknowledged Adrienne's husband - every single card was addressed to her. This book also addresses issues like having another baby.
 
Warm thoughts to this couple, their baby and their family.
