Mom & Mind Podcast | Postpartum | Birth | Pregnancy | Maternal Mental Health |

Today’s show is unique in that we have four guests sharing their stories of losing a uterus to survive childbirth, and the chaos left behind after this traumatic event. These four women have connected over the struggle to rebuild their lives, the constant dismissal from healthcare professionals, and finding that the one missing ingredient to get back to a normal life isn’t normalized in today’s medical society. (Hint: Hormone Replacement Therapy) In sharing their journeys, they give insight into this experience and why this scenario isn’t discussed and supported in our society. They share the deep grief and trauma they have experienced over the fact that losing your uterus has far-reaching ramifications beyond just “losing an organ.” Join us to hear from Katie, Greta, Kelsey, and Brittany!
