March is pregnancy after loss awareness month. Today, we want to take a brief moment to share some of our thoughts about pregnancy journeys after loss.
π Pursuing surrogacy after loss(es) can be scary, and that's okay. Choosing hope when heartache is about to swallow you, is bravery at it's finest. We are here to support you through those thoughts and feelings!
πIt's okay if you start another journey, while still grieving your loss(es). We fully understand the sweet taste of a subsequent pregnancy can feel diluted with the bitterness of sorrow from other losses.
πIt's okay that extra care for physical and emotional well being is given during your next journey. However you feel is valid, but if you need someone to talk to please reach out.
πIt's okay if, when someone asks if you're excited, the answer is genuinely "no." It's perfectly understandable if you have some big emotions around the fear of additional losses, or the success of upcoming transfers.
πAll pregnancies after loss deserve a lot of grace. From minute-to-minute, one could be experiencing every emotion imaginable. Joy. Fear. Excitement. Anxiety. Grief. Gratitude. Hope. Doubt. Peace. Jealousy. The process of growing and carrying a baby is a beautiful experience, but expecting a new child after loss has an ugly side that can leave people who have experienced loss feeling paralyzed.
There are so many more reasons why we want to honour and talk about the journeys our surrogates and intended parents who have experienced the loss of a child. Today, if that applies to you, be kind to yourself, and however you're feeling. Never feel badly for needing extra support wherever you are on your journey, we're here for you.
