*Trigger warning: Before we start today's episode, I want to start with a trigger warning because we're going to be talking about pregnancy loss and miscarriage today. I want to acknowledge that this is a sensitive topic that may bring up strong emotions for some listeners. If at any point you feel the need to pause or take a break, please do so.
If you recall, in episode 43, we talked about the symptoms, diagnosis, types and causes of a miscarriage. And in episode 46, we talked about management options. Today, we're going to step away from the medicine and we're going to dig into the psychological and emotional aspects of having a miscarriage. This is huge and is really important – and we could argue that in the vast majority of cases, it's way more of an emotional event than a physical event. Remember, a miscarriage is not your fault.
