11. Pregnancy Loss: The Silent Mother

ALUMUMA
About this episode

Sadly, more women and couples go through the grief of pregnancy loss than known. And although such a loss is just as difficult as any other in terms of grieving, somehow society is not quite clued up on how to provide needed sensitive support. 

These silent mamas, no matter how far into the pregnancy the loss occurs, could suffer the same symptoms of depression and anxiety. And if their mental well-being is not looked after, could go on to affect them, their partners, other children and relationships well into the future. 

In this episode with Dr. Ottilia Brown, we go through the symptoms, social stigmas, risks and support associated with pregnancy loss.
