Prompts to explore the experience of miscarriage, stillbirth, & infant death
When we talk about journaling or writing about child loss and grief, one of the most common responses we hear is, “I don’t know what to write about.” If you feel this is true, this section is for you.
Below, you’ll find several writing prompts with a sample beginning sentence and some additional clarifying questions.
Each prompt is designed as a free-writing exercise. While you can write from this first sentence, you are by no means required to—you can start with the phrase or questions listed, or with anything these questions prompt in your mind.
You can even go in a different direction entirely; write what feels right for you.
When finished, you can share your responses in the Sea Glass Parenting Writers Forum on Facebook, on your own social media account or blog, or even in the comments section of that prompt. However, you chose to share, we’d love to hear from you.
Your words are powerful. We hope by sharing these free-writing prompts to give you a starting point to express your story. Your love and grief are honored here, now and always.
