Description
Book synopsis
I was a Bereavement RN at a large women’s health clinic for four years and in my work, I met thousands of women experiencing pregnancy losses. Despite how common pregnancy loss is, it can be isolating as many people are not open about the experience. It is heartbreaking that we live in a culture that places the weight and blame of this on women—so much so that the first question they would often ask me is, “What did I do wrong?” I hope that by sharing my experience I can bring awareness to pregnancy loss and create an open dialogue.
