I wanted to let you know about an excellent post I just read on my friend Jodi's blog, Ché & Fidel: in it, Jodi interviews Zoe Taylor, author of the new book, Pregnancy Loss. The post addresses a lot of important issues related to experiencing miscarriage or stillbirth, and I would recommend checking it out if you have survived the loss of a pregnancy or if you are interested in pregnancy and childbirth. Read the post here, and be sure to leave a comment because HarperCollins Publishers has provided Jodi with five copies of the book to give away to her readers.
Hi Leigh! Thank you so much for posting this. I'm a neonatal nurse in Ottawa Canada and work with families dealing with neonatal loss frequently. In my experience the grief is often worsened by the fact that the death of the baby is not acknowledged in the way that a child or other loved ones is and therefore can be much harder to cope with. I know how many people read your blog so thank you so much for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteHi Leigh - not sure if you have seen this blog already, but on the topic of hope and loss, it is worth a read.
