Welcome to episode 2 of The Miscarriage Dads!
Have you ever felt the joy of anticipation and expectation that comes with a growing life, only to be met with the devastating stillness and silence when it's lost prematurely? That’s what we're addressing in this profound conversation, as we journey through experiences of early pregnancy loss, the struggle to revisit those painful memories, and the unexpected relief in sharing them.
In this heartfelt discussion, we discover the troubling words that influenced Kelly's response to his first miscarriage experience. We also delve into the emotional challenges he faced that almost caused a rift in his marriage. We explore the often detached approach of medical practitioners and the potential harmful implications it may have on the relationships of the people they serve.
Finally, we underline how crucial it is to be present for our loved ones during challenging times. Talking about the double standard men face when it comes to mental health after the loss of a child, we also explore the lack of available resources for men. The episode wraps up with a discussion on traditional masculinity, the danger of suppressing feelings, particularly following the loss of a child.
So, buckle up and join us as we unpack these issues. The learnings from Kelly's story might just be the thing you need to hear today.
