We're taking it back to basics Lads... This week Bex & Laura take on a couple of questions from the community around sharing loss stories - when is the right time? How do we advocate while protecting our wellbeing? and how to navigate the fear of judgement. There's also some singing and some laughter - although Bex's rendition of 'Earth song' was so bad that our editing software recognised it as unwanted background noise so we're afraid that didn't make it to the final cut - she's happy to voice note anyone who wants it. If you have any questions for the next 'community questions' episode, please email them over to us at [email protected] - with 'community questions' in the subject line.

* Trigger warning - Prenancy after loss and motherhood discussed during this episode*In this episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, Bex, Laura, Anastasia Shubareva-Epshtein , and Anna Whitehouse (aka Mother Pukka) sit down for an honest, no-filter conversation about pregnancy, motherhood, and the parts we’re so often expected to carry quietly - miscarriage, grief, and life after loss.Anastasia shares how her own journey through IVF and loss led to the creation of Carea, an app designed to support women through pregnancy in a way that reflects real life, not just milestones and happy endings. She talks about how many pregnancy apps fail women the moment things don’t go to plan, leaving them feeling unseen and alone at a time when support matters most.Together, they explore the pressures placed on mothers to “bounce back”, the way postpartum struggles are minimised, and why silence around miscarriage causes so much harm. The conversation centres on the power of community - of being believed, understood, and supported without having to explain yourself.This episode is a reminder that motherhood isn’t one-size-fits-all, grief doesn’t follow a timeline, and healing starts when we’re allowed to tell the truth.💬 Key TakeawaysCarea was created from lived experience - IVF, loss, and navigating pregnancy after trauma.Many pregnancy apps ignore emotional realities when things go wrong.Women need spaces where their full experiences are welcomed and validated.Postpartum struggles are often dismissed or minimised by society.Community and peer support can ease isolation and shame.Shared experiences help women feel less alone in their grief.Maternal mental health education is still deeply lacking.Partners play an important role in holding grief together.Safe spaces allow women to speak freely, without judgement.Breaking the silence around miscarriage is essential for healing.https://www.careaapp.com/@careaapp on InstagramWe are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation.

She speaks openly about the emotional complexity of pregnancy after loss - the fear, the hyper-vigilance, and the pressure to appear “okay” when you’re anything but.Together, the girls and Katie explore the themes that come up time and time again in grief: isolation, silence, and the expectation for women to move on before they’re ready. Katie talks about the importance of truth-telling - of allowing space for anger, sadness, relief, confusion, and everything in between - and how real healing starts when women are supported to feel, not fix.This conversation is a reminder that no one should have to carry loss alone, and that being truly seen and held can make all the difference.Katie can be found at www.katierosedoula.com@katierosedoula on Instagram We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation.

In this episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, Bex & Laura sit down with Kelly, the founder and CEO of Making Miracles to talk about the life-changing experience that led to the creation of this incredible charity. Kelly shares the terrifying moment she learned her unborn daughter had a serious heart condition, and how from that point on, pregnancy became a constant state of fear. What should have been a joyful time was instead filled with hospital appointments, uncertainty, and the overwhelming feeling that everything could fall apart at any moment.Kelly opens up about how isolating trauma can be - especially when you don’t want to “burden” others or don’t know where to turn for support. From those darkest moments came a deep understanding of just how broken the system can feel for parents navigating high-risk pregnancies and baby loss.Out of that pain, Making Miracles was created. What began as Kelly’s own way of surviving became a lifeline for others. The charity now offers emotional and therapeutic support for families at every stage - from pregnancy, to loss, to life after. This conversation is about fear, survival, community, and making sure no one has to feel as alone as Kelly once did.https://makingmiracles.org.uk/We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation.

In this episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, Maëla shares her story with honesty, courage, and a depth that stays with you long after the conversation ends. She opens up about experiencing multiple miscarriages, the quiet devastation that so often gets minimised, and the way women are expected to carry on as if nothing happened.Maëla takes us through the moment her pregnancy changed forever, when she received a life-altering diagnosis for her unborn child - complete AVSD - and the impossible reality of making a decision no parent should ever have to face. She speaks candidly about termination for medical reasons, the layers of grief that followed, and the added weight of societal judgement that so often surrounds these experiences.Alongside her personal loss, Maëla reflects on returning to work as a midwife, where holding space for others while tending to her own grief was both deeply challenging and unexpectedly grounding. She also names the impact of systemic racism within maternal healthcare, and how being a woman of colour intensified the barriers she faced - from pregnancy care to accessing mental health support after loss.This episode is a powerful reminder of why these conversations matter. It’s about resilience, about being believed and supported, and about the absolute necessity of compassionate, inclusive care. Above all, Maëla’s story speaks to the importance of community - of finding people who understand, who don’t judge, and who will sit with you in the hardest moments.We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation.

In this episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, Bex & Laura sit down with Sophie Sulehria - content director and host of The Fertility Show - for a wide-ranging, honest conversation about fertility, hormones, and the parts of women’s health we’re still not talking about loudly enough.Sophie shares her own experience of navigating fertility challenges, including living with endometriosis - a condition that is far too often missed, minimised, or diagnosed far too late - and the emotional and physical toll of IVF. She speaks candidly about the strain infertility can place on relationships, the quiet grief that comes with cycles that don’t work, and the anxiety-soaked limbo of the two-week wait.Together, Bex and Sophie dig into the bigger picture - the lack of awareness around IVF success rates, the impact of hormonal treatments on mental health, and the unrealistic societal pressures placed on women to just “get on with it.” As always, the conversation comes back to community: the power of finding people who get it, the importance of sharing stories, and why open, honest conversations are essential if anything is ever going to change.This episode is about advocacy, visibility, and refusing to stay silent about women’s health - because we all deserve better information, better care, and a whole lot more compassion.Key TakeawaysSophie Sulehria is the content director and host of The Fertility Show.Endometriosis can have a significant impact on fertility and is frequently misdiagnosed.Infertility can place enormous emotional strain on relationships.IVF is rarely straightforward and can involve repeated loss and disappointment.The two-week wait during IVF is an intense period of anxiety and uncertainty.Having a supportive community can make a profound difference during fertility challenges.Hormonal treatments can heavily affect mental health and emotional wellbeing.Advocacy is crucial to improving awareness and resources for women’s health.Many people begin IVF without clear information about realistic success rates.Open conversations about fertility and women’s health are vital for meaningful societal change.We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation.

In this episode, we sit down with Alex, who opens up about the heartbreak, confusion, and sheer emotional exhaustion of navigating multiple miscarriages while living halfway across the world from home. Now based in Singapore with her husband - and with zero plans to head back to the UK - Alex has had to make sense of her losses within a healthcare system that doesn’t always cushion its words or soften the blows. Cultural differences meant that some of the medical conversations she faced landed with a thud: blunt, clinical, sometimes bordering on cruel.Throughout the episode, Alex describes the emotional toll of repeated miscarriages - the way each loss chips away at you until you feel like this cracked, fragile version of yourself, desperately trying to glue the pieces back together again.

In this episode, we chat with the brilliant and brave Caiti, who takes us through the emotional chaos that is pregnancy, miscarriage, and trying again when life has already knocked the wind out of you. She talks about falling pregnant for the first time - the excitement, the dreams, the absolute gut-punch heartbreak of losing her son, Miles - and the way grief seeped into every corner of her life, including her relationship with her wife.Caiti opens up about the complicated dance of navigating grief as a same-sex couple, where both partners are hurting but not always in the same way, at the same time, or with the same intensity. She speaks honestly about the guilt, the questioning, the feeling of her body having somehow betrayed her, and the loneliness that can creep in even when you're surrounded by love.We also dive into the world of IVF - the needles, the hormones, the hope, the fear, the spreadsheets of appointments, and the emotional whiplash of trying to plan for a future when you're still carrying the weight of a past loss. And because this is TWGGEF, we talk about the absolutely essential act of advocating for yourself in a healthcare system that doesn’t always get it, especially when it comes to pregnancy loss and same sex families.As always, the conversation circles back to community - the people, the spaces, the podcasts (hello there) that make this nightmare ride a little less isolating. Caiti’s courage in sharing her story reminds us that breaking the silence breaks the stigma, and that speaking our truths helps someone else feel less alone.Key TakeawaysCaiti’s first pregnancy began smoothly, making the loss even more devastating.Miscarriage can trigger crushing guilt and feelings of not being “enough”.Grief looks different for every partner, and that mismatch can be incredibly hard.Advocating for yourself in the healthcare system is essential, especially after trauma.Open, honest communication is vital for surviving impossible moments in relationships.Pregnancy loss can be profoundly isolating, even with a strong support system.Community spaces and resources - including podcasts - can bring comfort and connection.IVF is a complex, emotional rollercoaster, but it also offers genuine hope.Medical environments need far more sensitivity and awareness around pregnancy loss.Sharing her story has helped Caiti feel connected, supported, and part of a wider healing community.We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation.

In this episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, we sit down with former X factor contestant Talia Dean as she walks us through the messy, magical, utterly heartbreaking rollercoaster that is trying to grow a baby in a world that doesn’t always play fair. She opens up about those first fluttery days of early pregnancy - the joy, the whispered hopes, the secret-keeping that can feel like both a protective bubble and an unbearable weight.Talia shares, with incredible courage, the story of her miscarriage: the trauma, the fear, the life-threatening complications that no one prepares you for, and the way her faith became the thread she clung to when everything else fell apart.We talk about the wonky way grief works, how loss can leave you searching for meaning in all the wrong (and occasionally right) places, and how trauma can tangle itself into the healing journey in ways that are anything but straightforward. And, as always, we come back to community - the gang - the space where stories like Talia’s aren’t “too much,” where women’s healthcare failures are named out loud, and where connection starts with three simple words: me too, friend.Because when we share the messy bits, we make the world a little less lonely for the next person walking this path.P.S - if for nothing else, listen out for the quote 'I felt like I'd be shot in the vagina...' no other baby loss podcast brings you this kind of gold. Key TakeawaysTalia’s road to motherhood was hopeful, heart-wrenching, and everything in between.Early pregnancy can feel magical and terrifying all at once.Keeping a pregnancy under wraps isn’t always protective - sometimes it’s isolating.The bond that forms between you and your tiny secret is real and powerful.Pregnancy complications can escalate frighteningly fast and deserve better recognition.Faith, whatever that looks like, can be a lifeline in crisis.Searching for meaning after loss is rarely linear and never simple.Trauma leaves marks that healing doesn’t always erase quickly.Having a supportive community is nothing short of essential.Sharing our stories makes the world safer for others to share theirs.We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation.

This one’s for the women who’ve been told to “just move on,” for those crying in the shower or clutching their partner’s hand at 3am. Because miscarriage is one of the hardest, loneliest things you’ll ever face. It deserves to be spoken about, felt, honoured.In this episode, we talk about the panic, the fear, and the sheer helplessness of managing a miscarriage at home. When you realise you don’t have a manual, no one’s told you what to expect, and suddenly you’re dealing with it on your own - scared, heartbroken, and trying to keep it together.We talk about:What it’s really like to go through this without immediate medical support - the frantic Googling, the “what do I do now?” moments, and the fear that no one seems prepared to address.The crushing loneliness of it all. When the world carries on scrolling through baby showers and gender reveals, and you’re just trying to make it through the day.How normal it is to feel panic, fear and disbelief. You’re not weak for feeling them. You’re human.The different ways people cope - from baths and blankets to complete emotional shutdowns. There’s no one right way.How the lack of clear guidance makes it so much worse. The not knowing, the silence, the absence of proper information.Using everyday things - towels, bowls, slotted spoons - as makeshift lifelines. Because sometimes, that’s all you’ve got.The power of emotional support: your partner’s hug, your friend’s text, your mum showing up with tea. They all matter more than words can say.How healthcare responses can feel cold or clinical, leaving you unseen when you’re at your most vulnerable.And most importantly, how sharing your story connects you to others who’ve been there. This is how we build a tribe - by speaking the truth.Big love to the Dignity Care Network and the Miscarriage Collection CradleWe also want to give a massive shout-out to the Miscarriage Collection Cradle from Dignity Care Network. Because when you have to deal with the physical side of loss, you deserve care and dignity - not improvisation.The cradle was designed with compassion and practicality in mind. It’s used inside the toilet bowl, with a removable insert to keep everything secure and separate. It allows you to collect gently and hygienically, without direct contact or distress. It was developed with healthcare professionals and families who’ve been through miscarriage themselves, and it makes an impossible situation that little bit more bearable.It’s about giving you control, privacy and respect at a time when you feel you’ve lost everything else. It’s small, simple, and incredibly meaningful.You can find out more at dignitycarenetwork.com.We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation.

This week, Bex & Laura dive deep into the fascinating (and sometimes downright confusing) world of the menstrual cycle, ovulation, and fertility. Whether you’re trying to maximise your chances of conceiving, wanting to learn a little more about your lovely lady bod, or just wondering what the bloody hell cervical mucus is all about — this one’s for you.Together with their guest Hannah Pearn, fertility acupuncturist, they unpack the phases of the cycle and talk about what’s really happening each month. From spotting the signs of ovulation to understanding the role of our old pal cervical mucus, it’s all about getting to know your body better — without the shame, stigma, or medical jargon.They also explore how technology can help (and sometimes stress us out) when tracking fertility, how contraception and age can affect your chances of conception, and the importance of managing expectations — because despite what we’re told, getting pregnant isn’t always as straightforward as we think.It’s educational, honest, and full of those “why did no one ever tell me this before?!” moments.Takeaways:The menstrual cycle is key to understanding fertility.Ovulation usually happens between days 12 and 20 — but it can vary!Cervical mucus is one of the best indicators of fertility (don’t be afraid to check it).Technology can be a great tool for tracking — but don’t let it add pressure.Medications, infections, and contraception can all affect cervical mucus.Contraception can temporarily impact fertility and hormone balance.Looking after your general health supports reproductive health.Timing sex around ovulation can make a big difference when trying to conceive.Managing expectations helps reduce stress around conception.Hannah Pearn can be found here - https://hannahpearn.com/We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation.

This week we’re joined by the brilliant Olly Brown, who opens up about his family’s experience of miscarriage and the arrival of his daughter afterwards. Olly talks honestly about the devastation of loss, the ripple effect it has on partners, and why community support can make all the difference when you’re navigating grief.As if that wasn’t inspiring enough, Ollie’s taking on a frankly bonkers challenge: 39 marathons in 39 weeks (yep, you read that right!) to raise awareness and vital funds for miscarriage support. Naturally, this led to Bex blurting out-on record-that she’ll lace up her trainers and take on another marathon too. No backing out now, Bex… it’s in the episode forever.We chat about why miscarriage is still such a taboo subject, how damaging the silence can be, and why acknowledging past losses matters even when you’re holding new life in your arms.It’s a moving, uplifting, and at times slightly chaotic conversation (thanks to the marathon madness) that reminds us just how much power there is in sharing stories.Takeaways:Miscarriage affects both parents, but partners are too often overlooked.Community support is everything when you’re living with loss.Talking openly helps smash the stigma and myths that surround miscarriage.Acknowledging past babies doesn’t take away from future ones—it honours them.Olly’s 39 marathons are creating a space for stories, solidarity, and awareness.Oh, and apparently Bex is running a marathon now too (send snacks and supportive memes).We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation.

Through it all, they’ve shown resilience, strength, and a determination not just to keep going, but to use their story to help others feel less alone.We talk openly about the importance of advocacy in healthcare, the need for better understanding and training for professionals, and why keeping conversations about their little one, Poppy, alive means so much.

In this powerful episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, hosts Bex Gunn and Laura Buckingham speak with Georgie, former Great British Bake Off contestant, neonatal nurse, and bereaved mother, about her raw, unfiltered journey through stillbirth, miscarriage, baby loss, ADHD, and life after unimaginable grief.Georgie shares the heartbreaking story of losing her daughter Avery at 24+6 weeks during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic — a loss she believes could have been prevented if her concerns had been listened to. As a neonatal nurse who had saved babies younger than her daughter, Georgie’s insight into medical negligence, maternal instinct, and the failures in perinatal care is both devastating and eye-opening.We explore: Stillbirth at 24 weeks — warning signs, reduced fetal movement, and why maternal gut instinct matters. Hospital negligence and baby loss during COVID-19 — and why many mothers feel unheard. Life after losing a baby — anger, guilt, and the long road to emotional survival. ADHD in women — how a late diagnosis reshaped Georgie’s understanding of herself. Grief and parenting after baby loss — raising surviving children while carrying trauma. Why ‘everything happens for a reason’ is the worst thing you can say to a grieving parent.This is an episode about speaking up, breaking the silence, and refusing to accept that baby loss, miscarriage, and stillbirth should remain taboo. Georgie’s story is one of pain, survival, and finding a way forward when you feel you can’t take another step.Whether you are a bereaved parent, navigating pregnancy after loss, living with ADHD, or supporting someone through infant loss, this conversation offers honesty, validation, and hope.About The Worst Girl Gang EverThe Worst Girl Gang Ever is a real, honest, and emotive podcast that covers the heartbreaking subject of miscarriage, infertility, and baby loss.

In this powerful and deeply moving episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, we sit down with Indra, a Glasgow-based theatre maker, to explore the raw and unspoken reality of pregnancy loss at a young age. Indra shares her personal journey of grief, isolation, and ultimately, transformation through art.At just 13 weeks into an unplanned pregnancy, Indra experienced a silent miscarriage — a traumatic event made even more difficult by her youth, lack of romantic support, and societal stigma. In this candid conversation, she opens up about the lack of validation and support, particularly for young people navigating pregnancy loss outside of traditional family structures.We also discuss her new one-woman show, "Float", debuting at the Edinburgh Fringe as part of the Made in Scotland showcase. Using space metaphors and powerful storytelling, Indra reclaims her grief and invites the audience to see pregnancy loss through a new lens — one of love, maternal identity, and unspoken pain.What You’ll Hear in This Episode: The experience of miscarriage at 13 weeks and how the medical system responded Why grief looks different when you're not in a long-term relationship How societal expectations invalidate the experiences of young mothers The emotional and administrative "grief load" no one talks about How Indra turned trauma into healing by writing a theatre show How the show “Float” explores grief through the metaphor of a failed space mission Navigating dating and future motherhood after loss Building a support system and the importance of grief communitiesAbout “Float”: Set against the backdrop of space exploration, Float tells the story of a failed mission and an invisible loss. With projection, storytelling, and poetic metaphors, Indra reclaims her experience of miscarriage and challenges societal narratives around what makes a mother.About The Worst Girl Gang EverThe Worst Girl Gang Ever is a real, honest, and emotive podcast that covers the heartbreaking subject of miscarriage, infertility, and baby loss.
