Ep 2: The Story of My First Pregnancy Loss

Published: April 13, 2020, 1:25 a.m.

This is the first time that I publicly share the experience of losing my first pregnancy. I recorded this episode with my dear friend, Sophia (pre-quarantine in NYC), which is symbolic on many levels. For one, she was there with me in the hospital as I was losing my little one and she recounted an incredibly powerful moment that I had forgotten about. And second, the recounting of this experience brought sadness and tears, but also laughter, gratitude, and a whole lot of love. This episode emphasizes the importance of having a tribe—people who can be with you in your most vulnerable moments, and hold space for all the emotions that come up. It also sets the stage for the transformation I've experienced after losing my first pregnancy (Bella) and then my little preemie (Mateo).

 

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode. Were there aspects of my journey that reminded you of yours.
