Thank you for the respect you showed them, for your many visits to Abba, where you gave to Daddy and Mummy the most precious gifts: your time and your attention. Thank you for walking this still-unbearable journey of grief with my siblings and me.

A belief that has always been practical, grounded in numbers and in reality.

Repeat 10 to 20 times in a row, two to three times a day. Perform prenatal perineal massage. With your doctor's okay, start about six weeks before your due date.

For about five minutes, apply just enough pressure to create a stinging sensation while you focus on relaxing. Your partner could also do this massage for you, with index fingers inside and thumbs outside. Control...
