I am absolutely at a loss right now, and I thought some of you with experience could help me ...

A friend of mine was due 1 week before me, so she would be 34 weeks pregnant this week ... Today, she received the baby gift we sent her, and I just got a text saying they lost their baby last week.

She asked if I wanted her to send the gift back to me.

Obviously, that's not an issue right now. BUT, I would like the words to comfort her ... or maybe something we can do for them while they're grieving. She's not local, so taking her food, or hugging her in person is not an option.

I had NO idea anything was wrong ... nothing on social media or their blog. Not that it was my business in the first place, but obviously, if I knew, I wouldn't have sent the gift.

My heart is so heavy. Being pregnant (around the same time as her) is making me more emotional, I'm sure ... I just really want to know how I can help them, or make this difficult time of transition & healing a little easier. Since they haven't shared publicly, I'm sure they're wanting some time to grieve on their own ... I would like to express my emotions in a way that's best received, and offer any support.
