Confessions of a Grieving Mother

Type of Loss: Stillborn

More about Jenna's Story: Jenna's second pregnancy with her daughter Julianna (Jules), was what she considered a textbook pregnancy and moved through the typical milestones until Jules' movement was not as consistent or as strong as expected. Although everything along the way had been fine, Jenna couldn't shake this feeling that something wasn't right. Jenna went in for a check up to be told the devastating news that Jules no longer had a heartbeat. Find out how Jenna has turned her pain into purpose with a research survey to help other loss families.

Parent to Parent Advice Survey:

After her second daughter, Julianna was stillborn in May 2023, Jenna started researching bereavement care to honor Julianna and help the loss community. There is currently very little research on parent advice to new loss parents. The first research project is a survey that takes 20-40 minutes to complete, depending on the level of detail provided in responses and asks questions about demographics, time at the hospital, and early grief.

Type of Loss: Vanishing Twin, Early-Term Loss

More about Meagan's Story: Meagan and her husband's first pregnancy with their son, Oliver, was what she described as a textbook pregnancy. Together, Meagan and her husband, decided they wanted their children to be close in age. When Oliver was about 8 months old, they made the decision to try for their second child. They quickly found out they were expecting...TWINS! They were absolutely shocked but excited to learn they were pregnant with not one but two babies. At Meagan's first appointment, the tech told them one of the baby's was measuring slightly smaller than the other, but still had a strong heartbeat. They also found out they were mono-mono twins. At a follow up appointment two weeks later to check on the smaller twin, they were informed their baby no longer had a heartbeat.
