Pregnancy & Infant Loss: 2 Women’s Stories of Love and Loss

Trigger Warning: Pregnancy and Infant Loss

As we hold moms who have experienced pregnancy and infant loss in our hearts, there is another group of women who struggle in silence without support. Many women have had to make the impossible decision to terminate a pregnancy for medical reasons.

Unfortunately, these women aren’t shown the same support after their loss because their decision is oftentimes seen as controversial or wrong. In this episode, we sit down with women who have experienced pregnancy loss as they share their stories about what it was like to make these decisions and how it has shaped them into who they are today.
