Plain markers, what prolonged grief and trauma after loss look like, and how to ask without being told to move on.

- Koopmans L, Wilson T, Cacciatore J, Flenady V (2013). Support for mothers, fathers and families after perinatal death. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2013(6), CD000452. The review's own conclusion, that the evidence is insufficient to show that formal support interventions improve outcomes, is published in the lesson rather than omitted. It is the reason lesson four is deliberately modest.
- Frederiksen Y, Farver-Vestergaard I, Skovgard NG, Ingerslev HJ, Zachariae R (2015). Efficacy of psychosocial interventions for psychological and pregnancy outcomes in infertile women and men: a systematic review and meta-analysis. BMJ Open, 5(1), e006592. Used only for the distress outcome. The course makes no claim that psychological state affects conception.
