Michelle and Sunni VonMutius discuss a type of pregnancy and infant loss in which the grief and loss may go largely unacknowledged: that of placing a baby for adoption. Sunni shares her experience of becoming pregnant as a teenager and placing her son for adoption. Together they explore how the pregnancy and birth of her second child 20 years later has brought renewed grief along with the joy. In the sharing of her story, Sunni wants to support other birth parents and remind them that all of their feelings and emotions are valid and are to be honored.
