Summary: A must for anyone who has had a miscarriage.
Review: I read this book two weeks after my D & C. I wish I had read it sooner. We had finally become pregnant after 1 1/2 years of trying. It was devastating to miscarry at 9 weeks. This book helped me to understand my grief and also offered a glimmer of hope for the future. It doesn't matter if this was your first pregnancy (like ours), or not. This was the most compassionate, understanding book I read. My husband will be reading it next, because I think it will be as helpful to men as it is for women.

Summary: Very helpful - highly recommend.
Review: I really got a lot of this book after my missed miscarriage at two months pregnant. It helped me emotionally to hear her story and the stories of other women. It also provided me with all the medical information I needed and helped me to get a list of questions for my doctor. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has lost a pregnancy.

Summary: Not as depressing as other miscarriage books
Review: I recently experienced my first miscarriage (and pregnancy) and found myself bombarded everywhere by stories of multiple miscarriages. These stories made my grief even more intense and gave me little hope for my future pregnancies. In "Motherhood After Miscarriage," Diamond describes a few cases of multiple miscarriages (including her own) but also emphasizes that most women who have experienced a single miscarriage do go on to have successful second pregnancies. After reading several books on the subject of miscarriage, I found this book gave me the most hope and optimism.

Summary: There have to be better books on miscarriage...
Review: I was lent this book by a friend, so at least I didn't waste my money on it. My two main complaints are (1) I have a very hard time trusting an author who admits that she tricked her husband into pregnancy, and (2) the text is very repetetive, saying the same things, over and over and over, leaving me to wonder whether this was necessary to make a book out of what amounts to little substance.

Summary: What a Comfort To a Person in a Time of Need
Review: What a wonderful book. A friend of mine gave me this book after I miscarried at three months. I was so devastated. I had many friends and family who were willing to be there and do anything for me, but I didn't want to talk to anyone really until after I read this book. It was so comforting to me to know I was not alone and that others felt the way I did. I couldn't put this book down until I was finished. It really helped me to organize my thoughts and discover things and feelings about myself that I hadn't realized before.

Summary: A superb, hopeful book to help you through tough times
Review: When I had a miscarriage in 1991, this book helped me enormously. I find knowledge to be a very healing thing. Motherhood after Miscarriage provided me with detailed information about what might have caused the miscarriage. It also made me feel OK for grieving, through the telling of stories from many other women who had been through miscarriage.I've recommended this book to too many friends as they went through miscarriages.
