As 2022 comes to a close, we reflect on the past year at Pregnancy After Loss Support. Our Pregnancy After Loss App has been available for more than a year now and has supported more than 15,000 parents. You can meet some of these courageous parents and read their powerful stories: Dawn Barhold, Lexi McLerran, Sarah Ball McCammon, Annelise Ord, Shannyn Hanson, Kelsey Berg, Katy Nicholls, and Erin Garrett. The app has made such an impact on so many lives.

These most-read stories at PALS show the powerful connections between loss parents, the love for all of our babies, the celebration of babies born after loss, and the resilience of our courageous parents.
