Miscarriage support on Instagram – 7 accounts I trust and follow, for real connection
Jessie Day, Senior Editor | 2 Oct 2025
When I was navigating miscarriage – I had two, one after the other, before having my kids – I was desperate for somewhere to deposit my grief, anger, confusion, and anxiety. From the first moments of my very first loss to the mum I am today, the experience fundamentally changed me.
The hard reset I needed, and the safe spaces I gained
I cope with things better now. I am definitely more resilient. I’ve learned to breathe (way before I learned hypnobirthing) and take each and every day, hour, minute as it comes. I know how to break up anxiety into manageable steps and little actions for my day-to-day. I advocate for myself and anyone who needs me, way better. I’m not ashamed of ‘making a fuss’.
But nine years ago, when I was fresh to it all, I thrashed about somewhat. My friends got an earful – rightly so, but not in a very productive way. I was angry all the time, and I simply did not know where to put all these feelings. I tried counseling, and had a strange experience (such a shame, as I now know a few wonderful grief and loss counselors and therapists).
Everything I saw was insensitive. Nothing and nobody could say anything right.
Was I looking on Instagram? I honestly can’t quite remember – I definitely still consumed fertility content there – but I know that now in 2025, it would be my first stop. Because yes, Insta can be a real trigger zone and Wild West of support tools. But finding just the right community, speaker, therapist or deeply relatable account is worth the risk and looking, for me.
Bonus tip: If you’re experiencing miscarriage, loss or fertility trauma, I’d really recommend clearing your search history in settings, and in content preferences (deeper down in your settings), opting to Reset suggested content. Once done, engage intentionally with your ‘safe space’ accounts, to re-train the algorithm. There’s absolutely nothing bad about a few boundary-setting unfollows, too.
In today’s feature, I’ve rounded up seven of the most powerful Instagram miscarriage accounts and recent posts, with reflections on why they matter, and where to go if you need support, today.
1. I Had a Miscarriage
Run by psychologist and author Dr. Jessica Zucker, I Had a Miscarriage has become a cornerstone of Instagram miscarriage support.
Fave recent post: Jessica’s posts blend personal reflection with clinical insight, giving followers both solidarity and informed perspective. My favourite recently has been her announcement of her next book (read up here), which I’m so excited about. Normalize It is all about upending the silence, stigma and shame that shape women’s lives.
For many, this account is often the first stop when searching for Insta miscarriage support, and it continues to inspire open dialogue around loss.

2. The Miscarriage Association
The Miscarriage Association has been a dedicated support for decades, and their Instagram presence reflects that. It’s practical, compassionate and community-focused, sharing both resources and stories from those who’ve been there, plus all relevant headlines and shifts in policy.
Fave recent post: It was genuinely encouraging to see Lord Brennan of Canton speak in the House of Lords, backing @sarahowenmp’s amendment to include pregnancy loss before 24 weeks in bereavement leave legislation. And more recently, in this post Sarah spoke with real pride and conviction on the topic.
The account works hand in hand with their website, which remains one of the most comprehensive resources for miscarriage support.
3. Tommy’s
Tommy’s is recognised globally for its research, campaigns and pregnancy loss resources, and its Instagram channel offers both hope and advocacy.
Fave recent post: @myleeneklass has spoken powerfully about experiencing four miscarriages. What brought her unexpected comfort was learning about microchimerism – the extraordinary science showing that when you miscarry, your baby’s cells remain in your body. They’re still with you. This post covering the topic on the Tommy’s grid is so beautiful, I really recommend.
Tommy’s miscarriage content is super-helpful if you’re looking for medically backed advice, and effortlessly balances empathy with authority.

4. The Miscarriage Doula
The Miscarriage Doula account is run by Arden Cartrette, who provides coaching and peer support for people experiencing miscarriage.
Fave recent post: Arden’s post here resonated with me deeply. It spoke about the memory of the bathroom – that haunting place where miscarriage unfolds for so many of us. For me, the bathroom in our old flat still lingers painfully. I remember crouching there, sobbing and screaming, pleading for it not to be happening again. For my first miscarriage, it was a place of white-hot shock and pain, in the middle of the night.
This account embodies validation, reminding followers that their physical and emotional experiences are real, traumatic, and worthy of care.
5. The Worst Girl Gang Ever
With a raw, unfiltered tone, The Worst Girl Gang Ever tackles the taboo of miscarriage head-on. They were my OG follow, when I miscarried for the first time, and I can’t speak highly enough of their content. It hits every note.
Fave recent post:
“If someone else’s reality is too painful for you to acknowledge, imagine what it is doing to them.”
Just, yes. Read it and keep scrolling, for a heart-full of brilliant, life-affirming content and support.
Alongside their Instagram, the founders run a podcast and community platform, creating a sense of belonging when you feel pushed to the margins.

6. Wish I Wasn’t in This Club
The name says it all. No one wants to be in the “miscarriage club,” but once you’re there, you realise how many others are too.
Fave recent post: I absolutely love their selection of 19 recent posts “that were like a breath of fresh air for a grieving heart”. Just so helpful, safe and positive, with zero toxicity.
This account feels like a hand reaching out, reassuring you that your pain is valid, and that there is so much space for it, in this club and corner.

7. Miscarriage Movement
The Miscarriage Movement blends awareness campaigns with storytelling, focusing on collective change as well as individual support.
Fave recent post:
“It’s not my job to teach you how to love me through my miscarriage.”
This was essentially the rolling thought in my head, across my year of miscarriage pain, anxiety and grieving. Read it here, and all the fantastic slides that go with.
It’s a powerful follow for those who want advocacy alongside grief support.
Big, wonderful support
If you’re in the UK, the Miscarriage Association offers helplines, forums and local support groups. In the US, the Miscarriage Association USA (note: some organisations share names but operate separately) and local charities provide similar care.
Charities like Tommy’s also have extensive online resources. And for more personal reflection, the Ribbon Box has covered everything from treatment pathways to emotional recovery and wellbeing after loss.
On your reading list: I recently put together this feature covering the very real experience of increased sex drive after miscarriage – no, you’re not alone on this either – plus, our friends and family guide to miscarriage gifting and support might be a helpful read for anyone looking to do something simply brilliant for their person going through a miscarriage – moms, dads and all.
