in Late Term and Child Loss
I have a co-worker/friend that recently suffered a loss.  He and his wife have had a long road.  They were initially told her tubes had complete blockage and she would have to do ivf.  After 2 unsuccessful attempts they miraculously conceived naturally.  They were exactly 2 weeks behind me, at just over 19 weeks they gave birth to a baby girl.  She only lived 38 minutes.  I am having such a hard time with this for so many reasons, mainly they really deserve to be parents and I feel guilty that I am still pregnant (my husband and I also had several years of fertility issues).  They are in another state so I can't head over there and give them hugs but I want to do something for them to show them how much they are in my thoughts.  They are not religious so I would like avoid anything religious.  Any ideas of what I can do/give?  I know nothing will make what they are going through better but I want them to know that my husband and I care and are thinking about them.

    I'm sorry for your friend's loss.  If you look on the "home" page of this board at the top there is a post about "what to do" and also one about "what not to do" these will be helpful for you.
