They say 1 in 3 pregnancies will end in a miscarriage. Yet we avoid talking about this, there is a huge amount of guilt and sadness around this common experience, Despite how many women and their partners experience this in the journey to parenthood, there is insufficient mental and emotional support in this time of loss. The loss of what could have been, the loss of the forward momentum that is so pivotal in our adult lives and the loss that is felt physically by the mother to be. It’s beyond brutal and changes you forever. On this episode we talk about it all. The magic that is making a child, souls always finding a way to you and becoming at peace with the loss. Also one recommendation from regret on a better way to process and heal from this type of loss.
