If I miscarried at 16 weeks pregnant during 2017 do I add my deceased son?

I am so sorry for your loss. Unfortunately there isn't a way to claim your son on your income tax return. If you had medical expenses related to your pregnancy you may be able to claim those expenses on your return. Please see the below links for more information:
