Love, Listen and Learn: Grandmothers' Experiences of Grief Following Their Child's Pregnancy Loss.

CONCLUSIONS: Early access to information and guidance, ongoing peer support with flexible delivery options, and involvement in memory making activities could reduce ambiguity and disenfranchisement. Increasing community education and participation in raising awareness was identified as a way for grandparents to honour their loss and support others. Further research could explore grandfathers' experiences, the longer-term outcomes for grandparents and families, and the impact of support strategies.
