October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month
My heart was heavy writing this. Being in the fertility and birth world for years, I’ve now had my fair share of helping people through chemical pregnancies, miscarriage and recently was present for a late-term pregnancy loss.
For anyone who has been or is going through this; you are seen, and your grief is shared. We remember your angel baby and encourage you to do so as well in any way that is significant to you.
For anyone who is helping someone through this, know that your presence means the world to them. We may not know what to say but saying anything at all and remembering their baby is so important.
I once had a patient tell me that they want to keep talking about their loss because talking about their baby and using his name is the only world that their baby will live in. That stuck with me.
It’s truly been the most heart-breaking honour to be with you through these transitional times in life. A huge should out to my teams at and for doing the work that you do. You are so needed 🤍🤍🤍
Sending love and healing,
