TW: pregnancy loss / miscarriage.
This convo has been a long(ish) time coming, but I (AMQ here!) just wanted to make sure I was in a place where I was ready to tell this part of my story.
We shoot the shit a bit before getting serious, but buckle up, buttercups! This conversation gets candid some may even feel controversial. But it was necessary.
Trying to conceive at 35+ is stressful enough as is, with everyone coming at you about how I may have waited too long and yadda yadda. And then to navigate a miscarriage, it was a lot. I had to work through a lot to get to a space where I was ready for motherhood. And I get real and raw about that. We also touch on why language and messaging around ttc, pregnancy loss and miscarriage is so important.
We truly feel more discussions like this need to happen so more women realize they aren't alone in this (sometimes challenging) journey.
As always, thank you for being here. It will always be important to us to share how we navigate the seasons of life and how we can find connection to ourselves and one another through it all. You never have to walk the hard chapters alone!
Credit where credit is due, boo!
