Parenting after loss can bring a unique mix of love, gratitude, fear, and grief. In this topical conversation, Tracy and Khristina talk about how pregnancy and infant loss continues to shape the way we parent our living children. From navigating everyday moments and milestones to managing fear, talking about the baby who died, and balancing gratitude with grief, they explore the many ways loss shows up in family life. Whether you're parenting after loss or supporting someone who is, this conversation is a reminder that you can deeply love the children in your arms while continuing to miss the child who isn't here. Both can exist, and there is room for all of it.

Throughout the month of October, Confessions of a Grieving Mother is honoring Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month with a special five-part panel series exploring the many different parts of grief, healing, and remembering our babies.We close our series with Finding Purpose in the Pain.After losing a baby, the idea of finding purpose can feel impossible, especially in the early days of grief. There is no need to rush toward meaning or make sense of something that never should have happened.Purpose can look different for everyone, and sometimes it simply means continuing to carry our babies with us as we take the next step.As we close out Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, we hope this conversation offers a little hope to those who are still finding their way and reminds every grieving parent that there is no timeline for healing, and there is no wrong way to carry your baby’s memory forward.

Throughout the month of October, Confessions of a Grieving Mother is honoring Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month with a special five-part panel series exploring the many different parts of grief, healing, and remembering our babies.This week, we are talking about something that can be difficult to navigate after loss: boundaries.Grief can change what we need from the people around us. Situations that once felt ordinary, like pregnancy announcements, baby showers, holidays, or family gatherings, can suddenly feel incredibly difficult.Setting a boundary is not about shutting people out. Sometimes, it is simply a way of giving ourselves the care and space we need.If setting boundaries has been difficult for you, we hope this conversation helps you feel a little less alone and reminds you that it is okay to take care of your heart.
