The hidden grief of infertility, pregnancy loss and an unchosen child-free life ft Andrea Pattico | Episode 43

Being a parent is something that many of us consider a milestone moment that we are, or were excited about. Embracing our nurturing nature can feel like it’s best geared towards being a mother, but not all of us will experience the reality of becoming a biological mother. When we encompass love, care and support for others around us we exercise our maternal instincts beyond biological bonds. Let’s never forget to celebrate the strength, resilience and tenderness of women who still positively impact the lives of many, despite the heartfelt and unfulfilled dreams of becoming a mother.How can we get through the grief of desiring children but never having a pregnancy make it to full term?
