The recent episodes of our podcast have explored challenging themes, and today's topic is no exception. Miscarriages touch the lives of many, whether it's a personal experience or through someone we know. Some mothers might not have been aware they were pregnant when it happened, while others felt an instant bond as soon as they saw the positive result on a pregnancy test. Losing a pregnancy is losing a child.
Discussions about miscarriages are often cloaked in silence and stigma. Offering support can be confusing for loved ones, with a fine line between what to say and what to avoid. In today's episode, we'll provide guidance on how to support mothers, fathers, and families who are going through this experience that is anything but perfect.
