On Grief: Talking Miscarriage and Grief Care with Michaelene Fredenberg
Description
October is Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness month and we are starting off our grief series with Michaelene Fredenberg, Founder and CEO of Life Perspectives. Michaelene and I discuss pregnancy loss, how to cope and how to support. She shares many practical tools for parents, family members and support people, health care providers and more on how to navigate the complicated layers of the loss of a pregnancy. It's commonly known that 1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage, we're just here to normalize talking about it. (TW: miscarriage, pregnancy loss, infant loss)
