I am looking for songs about grieving a pregnancy/early child loss.

'Spark' by Tori amos is a very good one I suggest you check it out.

When I asked about a song for the same situation, a friend suggested "Wait" by Sarah McLachlan.

When all we wanted was the dream
to have and to hold that precious little thing
like every generation yields
the new born hope unjaded by their years

Baby Get Lost - Elysian Fields
It's not a song about miscarriage, but wishing it happened since the narrator does not feel like having the child.

During her first trimester, the narrator wasn't actually ready to keep the baby
How common of me not to rise above
And I try to deny this gauzy reverie
and this train never arrives

and her man didn't care enough for her in the meantime.
Don't trust to forget the love that's mislaid
I can't rely, perhaps I can't decide

So both of them forced themselves to accept the situation
Hold out for the day, you beg me to stay
We're more than you could ever imagine

she had nausea
How gravid the moon on the cusp of the sea, buttering me up

but her belly didn't show much
how it petrifies

and wished to lose the baby.
For all that isn't mine
and laugh as we crash in

She couldn't get an abortion since she either did not want to, or realised she had past the number of weeks to get one, so that was one week after.
All of my lines have been stolen

Also, Firefly by Alpha and Martin Barnard. I've given an interpretation of his lyrics, at the very last part of the song.

A husband and wife couple travelling to India (they must be hippies), she has a scan showing twins
Indian took another butterfly

But they are so tiny because both embryos died, that's what the couple is being told
Words from an Indian, words tinny in tone

And after a small, private funeral ceremony for the twins, the husband and wife accept the miscarriage that is about to happen, since abortion and miscarriage are no taboo to them.
Heads down
Destiny on tow

I must say my interpretation was partly inspired by the high rate of abortion in India. But here the couple went to India for an abortion first, and during the scan, they are very surprised to see tiny twins, so a miscarriage is about to happen.
