The Lotus team helps people through loss, trauma, miscarriage, stillbirth, ectopic pregnancies, birth complications, and neonatal death We’re recording today’s podcast to help recognise Baby Loss Awareness Week, which runs from 9th–15th October. Our vision for this episode is to break down some of the common misconceptions around baby loss and to educate people on how they can best support others who have been affected. Please be aware that this discussion may be triggering for anyone who has experienced baby loss, or for those who have supported family members or friends through it. We approach the topic with sensitivity, respect, and care.
