A teacher at school just lost her baby at 16 weeks. She is a coworker and also was ds's first grade teacher and did so much to help him, I want to send her something special to let her know we are thinking of her but I don't know what is appropriate during this time. She was completely blindsided by this, I saw her yesterday and she was so excited to be going to the drs office for a routine prenatal and they told her there was no heartbeat. TIA.

I think flowers is really the only appropriate thing here.

Flowers and a simple "Thinking of you" card would be great.

Flowers would be a nice gesture. Usually no one thinks to do that. I'm sure she would love to know you are thinking of her.

One of my family members had a miscarriage. A friend bought and named a star after them... Recieved a frame and how to find the star.

Thanks, I am really heartbroken for her. She was so excited, probably the happiest pregnant woman I have ever met, and she was so good to my quirky ds that I want her to know how much I care.

My dearest friend who lives across the country from me sent me a beautiful bouquet when I miscarried. It was a lovely surprise and really brightened my day. I think flowers is a wonderful idea to show how much you care!

I'm sorry for your friend. Flowers sound like a great idea!

When I miscarried, I got flowers and they really brought a smile to my face.
