My name is Brenda and I am 1 in 4.

When I had my first miscarriage, I was in disbelief. I felt as if my life, my breath, my future, was taken from me. I was left with nothing but confusion and fear and an empty womb. I felt hopeless and alone.

Filled with grief, I searched and researched for answers right away. I fell into several online communities full of other loss parents asking the same questions: Has this ever happened before? What do I do next? How do I grieve my baby? How do I live with this loss?

I’m a wife and a mother, and I want to share my story and help you share yours, too.

This Miscarriage Life is a space to share, learn from, and support families touched by pregnancy and miscarriage loss.
