Miscarriage is such a complicated and often silent topic. Unexpectedly losing an expected child can come with so many feelings of confusion, guilt, grief as well as anxiety, doubt, and depression. While miscarriage is unfortunately not that uncommon (10-20% of women who know they are pregnant will lose a baby early in pregnancy), it can feel like such an isolating experience. In this episode, Amanda Squitieri is proud to share the stories of the children she has birthed who are here on the outside as well as the ones she has loved and lost on the inside. She offers her insight, advice and reassurance of how to hold space for pregnancy loss and find the courage to conceive again.
