sorry to hear about this. My pastor's wife also miscarried this week and they are delivering the baby today. This would have been their fourth child. I would sign it as pregnant-lost myself since that conveys what happened the best.

So sorry to hear it.

There is a sign for MISCARRIAGE which has the dominant hand resting on the belly with the non-dominant hand over it, and then the dominant hand signs DROP at that location. Some people add BABY beforehand to make it more clear. Hope this made sense.

I would sign it "LOST BABY" or "BABY LOST".

Yes, that's the one I'm most familiar with, especially with BABY first.

yeah he's having a rough week this week. They delievered the still-born baby today, the mother is staying over night and I feel awful for them. They are having a struggle as it is with one child being a special needs child. The other two are perfectly healthy.
