Today's episode is a two part episode where we discuss adoption and second trimester loss. Today's guest Dr. Tatiana Height wanted to become a mother through private adoption as she was single at the time. During this time she faced alot of judgement from people about trying to adopt instead of carrying a biological child.
If you haven't listened to part 1 please go back to Episode 383 to listen.
In this episode we discuss her finding out she was pregnant, her second trimester and miscarriage loss story, her 3rd failed adoption, and her grief and healing journey. We discuss how the third mom changed her mind the day the baby was due. Her due date was right at the same time as Tatiana was entering her second trimester, so she put her adoption plan on hold to focus on pregnancy. At 19 weeks and 3 days, her water broke and she gave birth to a baby girl, but she didn't survive. 10 months later she got pregnant again, but miscarried around 6 weeks, and she is now trying to adopt again.
