Loss of a baby is devastating. The psychological effects on the mother can last years or even a lifetime. A mother who had been through the loss of a baby came to the emergency room on the 16th of September. The author took care of the mother from the 16th to 19th and 22nd of September. During the whole process from the emergency room to the funeral, the author cared for the mother with compassion, companionship and support. In addition, the author assisted in providing a “compassionate death” for the baby, i.e. advocating for no CPR and no autopsy to keep the body intact and to leave a good memory for the family. Furthermore, the family was aided through the grieving and mourning processes: arrangements were made for the family to say goodbye to the baby and to take photos of the baby to provide lasting memories, and assistance was given for transforming the mother-infant attachment. The author hopes this report can help nurses understand how the mother and family go through the grieving process and learned how to show their compassion, companionship and caring.
