About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the Along With Me web-based intervention works to decrease posttraumatic stress symptoms and suicidal ideation among bereaved parents following pregnancy and early infant loss. It will also learn whether peer guides provide additional improvements on these outcomes.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

• Do people who receive Along With Me or Along With Me plus a Peer Guide compared to services as usual have lower posttraumatic stress symptoms and suicidal ideation than those who do not receive the intervention?

Researchers will compare Along With Me and Along With Me plus a Peer Guide to services as usual (referrals made in the hospital setting) to see if Along With Me works to prevent and address posttraumatic stress symptoms and suicidal ideation.

Participants will:

* Receive access to a mobile app with approximately 10 therapeutic modules about how to manage grief and other symptoms. * Receive check-ins with a Peer Guide (in the Peer Guide condition only)
