What Now: Hope & Help for Infant Loss | Episode 209

Episode 209

In this episode I’m sharing with you what I want every grieving mom who has experienced infant loss to know about grief and life after loss. For those who are listening who love a grieving mom and might not be as familiar we wanted to take a second and define infant loss – infant loss includes those whose babies within the first year of life. I pray the words I share with you today offer you hope. I pray they remind you that you are not alone.

For those listening whose baby has been born and has already died and you are looking for help navigating grief, we have previous episodes that will be helpful for you, as well. For those enduring a 2nd trimester loss, listen to Episode 205, for those whose babies were born still in the 3rd trimester or at full term, listen to Episode 206, and for those whose babies were born prematurely or lived less than 28 days, listen to Episode 207, for those who have received a life-limiting diagnosis for their baby, listen to Episode 208.
