Our Stillbirth Story: Saying Goodbye to Elliot (Part 2)

STOP asking these to pregnant women, Here's why - Pregnancy after miscarriage

In this episode, I'm tackling some of the tough questions I've been getting lately, like "Is this your first?" and much more! I open up about how I navigate these conversations and how they impact me emotionally. I also share how I'm overcoming the fear and anxiety that are so different from my experience during Luna's pregnancy. Comparing these two pregnancy journeys after loss, I talk about leaning on my incredible friends and community, documenting each moment, and finding grounding through prayer and faith. Thank you for joining me on this journey. I'm so grateful to have you here, and I can't wait to share more with you. ========================== FOLLOW ON SOCIALS: Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@sunsets_and_rainbows_podcast ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Personal Instagram:⁠ https://www.instagram.com/agnesrjensen/⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/agnesrjensen/⁠] Youtube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/@sunsets_and_rainbows_podcast [https://www.youtube.com/@sunsets_and_rainbows_podcast] Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://agnesjensen.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ [https://agnesjensen.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠] DISCLAIMER: The content of this podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be considered as medical advice.
