I have had approximately 10 miscarriages...everything from a week after a very early positive pregnancy test (probably a 4 week term), to a 24 week one. The 4 week one was more or less a late period...the 24 week one was obviously not. Some were more traumatic than others, some required more medical followup than others. Some happened before a pregnancy test...some happened after. My point is that every miscarriage is different for everyone and who decides when a miscarriage is severe enough or far enough along to be worthy of paid bereavement leave? Personally, I think it should come under unpaid approved bereavement, assuming sick leave entitlement has been utilised.

I will bet there is a *subject to availability clause somewhere in the blurb. I agree this is a waste of money when you can do it yourself, but its pretty nasty to write this piece based on value for money. I could write bad reviews for most hairdressers, dentists and just about every other occupation as they ALL have a markup.
