    💔 Episode Summary In this episode, Serena shares her story of pregnancy, loss, and everything that came after. She talks about the early excitement of becoming a mum, and how quickly things changed as she was faced with difficult decisions no one ever expects to make. Serena opens up about the emotional weight of that time, navigating medical conversations, uncertainty, and the kind of grief that’s hard to put into words. We talk about the role of healthcare and how support, or lack of it, can shape your experience during pregnancy and loss. Serena reflects on how grief showed up for her in ways she didn’t expect, and how returning to everyday life, including work, felt far from simple. This episode is about the complexity of loss, the courage it takes to keep going, and the importance of giving yourself the space and care you need along the way. 💬 Key Takeaways  Pregnancy can begin with hope and excitement, before everything shifts unexpectedly.  Experiences within the healthcare system can deeply affect how loss is processed.  Being faced with difficult decisions during pregnancy can feel overwhelming and isolating.  Grief after loss is complex and can show up in unexpected ways.  Support from healthcare professionals can make a meaningful difference.  Returning to work after loss isn’t always straightforward and may take time.  Resilience often grows quietly through lived experience.  Self-care is not a luxury, it’s a necessity after emotional trauma.We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation.

    S11 E2 - Laura & Bex - Community Questions

    We're taking it back to basics Lads...  This week Bex & Laura take on a couple of questions from the community around sharing loss stories - when is the right time? How do we advocate while protecting our wellbeing? and how to navigate the fear of judgement.  There's also some singing and some laughter - although Bex's rendition of 'Earth song' was so bad that our editing software recognised it as unwanted background noise so we're afraid that didn't make it to the final cut - she's happy to voice note anyone who wants it.  If you have any questions for the next 'community questions' episode, please email them over to us at info@twgge.co.uk - with 'community questions' in the subject line. You can ask anything at all - about us, the work we do or how to navigate certain situations - nothing is off limits!  Also, we mention our lovely friends Shaun & Kieran over at NeXYs fertility - you can find them @themalefertilitypodcast & @nexysfertility on instagram - a fantastic support for men & all things male fertility.  Ciao for now xxx We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation.
