HI.
I left the hospital at 5am this morning after staying with a dear friend went into preterm labor w/her twins. She had a hard time until the 3rd epidural - and did a great job on delivery. It was just too early - the girls were 19 weeks. Please pray for her, her husband and families. This was their first pregnancy after years of trying and then doing expensive IVF (I think that's the one).They are heartbroken but trying to be positive through the tears and trust in God.Thank you so much.

So sorry to hear.It's probably too late at this point to refer a photographer from here: http://www.nowilaymedowntosleep.org/, but there are message boards on their site that might provide support.

1. How can I support my friend who just lost twins?

One of the best ways to support your friend is by simply being there for them. Offer to listen to them, spend time with them, and help with any tasks or errands they may need assistance with. Sending a thoughtful card or gift can also show your support and let them know you are thinking of them.

2. What can I say to my friend to comfort them during this difficult time?

It's important to acknowledge your friend's loss and express your condolences. You can simply say something like, "I am so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers." Let your friend know that you are there for them and available to talk if they need to.

3. Should I avoid bringing up the loss of the twins or talking about them?

It's important to follow your friend's lead in this situation. Some people may find comfort in talking about their loss and sharing memories of their babies, while others may not be ready to do so. If your friend does not bring up the topic, it's best to follow their lead and avoid bringing it up unless they bring it up themselves.

4. How can I help my friend cope with their grief?

Grief is a difficult and individual process, and there is no one right way to cope with it. However, you can offer your friend support and encouragement to seek out professional help or support groups if they are struggling. You can also suggest activities or hobbies that may help distract them and provide some relief from their grief.

5. Is there anything I should avoid saying or doing when trying to support my friend?

Avoid making assumptions or minimizing your friend's loss. Phrases like "you can always try again" or "it was meant to be" can be hurtful and dismissive of their feelings. Instead, focus on listening and being there for your friend without judgment.
