Hello
As many of you know miscarriage was the very first issue Mumsnet campaigned on. In our most recent survey two weeks ago we found that 96% of you supported the proposal for three days of paid leave for women and their partners who experience miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy or molar pregnancy before 24 weeks. They are not covered under bereavement leave.
Scottish MP Angela Crawley has put a bill forward in Parliament about this subject, which has its Second Reading on Friday 3rd December - in two days! She has started a petition so people can show their support, and so far she has nearly 25,000 signatures - wouldn’t it be amazing if we could give it a boost to show Parliament how much support her proposal has?
You can sign the petition here. And sign up to our campaigns newsletter here if you’d like to stay in the loop about our miscarriage care campaign or any other campaigns, and how you can lend your support.
