Losing a child leads to unimaginable pain and grief. How are you supposed to get through your daily activities, much less plan a cremation service in Fleming Island, FL<\/a> after losing your child? These tips are practical suggestions that can help you through your time of loss after the passing of your child.<\/p>\n

First of all, rituals like cremations, memorials and funerals go a long way toward helping you say goodbye in a healthy way. They also help you express your grief in a healthy way. Don\u2019t shy away from planning and hosting a service for your lost child, but also don\u2019t feel rushed into planning one right away. You can always hold a memorial after some time has passed and you\u2019re more settled.<\/p>\n

Take your time making any big decisions or choices as your grief might lead to you make choices you normally wouldn\u2019t or might cause additional confusion and stress. If you have to make some big choices, like planning a cremation or dealing with something at work, try and talk over your options and decision with a trusted friend, family member or your spouse.<\/p>\n

Many parents that lose a child via miscarriage or stillbirth are given the option to see and hold their baby before he or she is prepared for burial or cremation<\/a>. This is completely up to you. Many people find it a good way to say goodbye and have a bit of closure, while others find it simply too painful. If you decide to see and hold your baby, spend as much time as you need with your baby.<\/p>\n

If you decide not to see your child, that\u2019s perfectly OK. No matter what the circumstances of your child\u2019s death, you will need to share in your grief with someone else. Whether you share with a spouse, family member or friend, you need to take time to mourn and grieve in your own way with the help of a loved one. Any loss can have a large effect on your mind and body alike, so be prepared for a wide range of physical and emotional responses after the loss of a child. You might feel confused, afraid, guilty, disorganized, and angry, even all at the same time. Don\u2019t be surprised if you suddenly experience surges of grief, even at the most unexpected times.<\/p>\n

\"cremation<\/p>\n

This is all normal and healthy after a loss. Physical keepsakes are some of the best ways to remember a child after he or she passes. Gather keepsakes like blankets, toys, clothing, footprint or handprint sets, and hospital bracelets. You don\u2019t have to hold them or display them if it\u2019s too painful right away but do put them away in a box so you can have them later on when the pain of loss isn\u2019t as fresh.<\/p>\n
