Active listening, avoiding cliches, and wrapping the infant in a blanket are appropriate interventions. Active listening shows empathy and support, avoiding cliches prevents minimizing the parents' feelings, and wrapping the infant in a blanket shows respect and care for the infant, making the situation more comforting for the parents. Avoiding periods of silence is not necessarily appropriate as silence can be a valuable time for reflection and processing emotions. Permitting parents to hold their infant, even with birth defects, is important for their grieving process.
