12 | Ana Lepe Vick-PUSH for Empowered Pregnancy

Send us a text

I had the great pleasure of meeting ⁠Ana Lepe Vick⁠ in Washington DC in May of 2023. About 50 of us set up meetings with Congressmen and Women to advocate for the ⁠Shine For Autumn Act⁠ and the ⁠Maternal and Child Health Stillbirth Prevention Act.⁠

After a healthy first born daughter, Ana had a miscarriage, the stillbirth of our son Owen, and a missed miscarriage. It was such a dark period as she was feeling so devastated by our losses and broken as a woman who couldn’t seem to carry to term again. Delivering Owen by crash c-section late one evening after I noticed decreased fetal movement and finding out when she awoke that he didn’t survive was the most traumatic event of our lives, but the miscarriages also felt devastating because her and her husband wanted so badly to give their daughter a sibling to grow up with. Ana will never stop missing the babies that should’ve been here with their two living siblings, a piece of Ana died with them though she carries their memory with her in her advocacy efforts (non-profit ⁠PUSH for Empowered Pregnancy⁠) and every day life. Her children are always loved and forever part of our family. Ana is the Co-Director of Medical Innovation & Advancement at PUSH for Empowered Pregnancy.

Ana is very active on social media and can be found on the following handles

I met ⁠Mary online over memes, our faith and through our losses. Mary is not only a wife, mother, school phycologist, but she is also a social media influencer. She uses her social media to spread hope by sharing insights about her grief journey. She has become a safe place for anyone needing permission to grieve, find hope and encouragement.

Today she tells us her story how she and her husband struggle with fertility issues, a loss through a miscarriage, a chemical pregnancy and finally getting pregnant with twins. It seemed as if she was finally going to get her happily ever after. Unfortunately, she'll hear the devastating words from her physician...."I'm sorry Baby A has no heartbeat." Her life will be forever changed.

You'll hear us laugh, almost cry, and talk about her faith as it carried her through the hardest time of her life. Her journey has been hard but mostly will give you a sure Hope she found in Jesus.

Go like and follow Mary on ⁠Instagram⁠.
