While there may be conversations about medications or medical treatments, I am not a doctor, and I am not offering any medical advice. Please consult an actual doctor for your own medical care. Miscarriage changes you in immeasurable ways. For Caroline, her miscarriage with her third child had a lasting impact on her life. Since experiencing a traumatic D&C, she says she hasn’t felt the same about her body. And even as she celebrated her pregnancy with her rainbow baby, Caroline struggled to shake the anxiety and overwhelming question of ‘what if.’ In today’s episode, I talk to Caroline about the miscarriage of her third child and the medical trauma she experienced because of it. She shares how that trauma impacted her daily life, including her relationship with her two daughters, and how she found life-changing healing through therapy. Plus, she shares the story of her surprise rainbow baby and how she learned to celebrate through her grief.
