125: Parallel between ectopic pregnancy and kidney stones with Shona Jagusch Resilient Moms: Hope, Healing & Living After Loss
-
- Education
Shona Jagusch and her husband have a blended family, each having children from their previous marriages. Wanting to have a child to complete their family, Shona became pregnant fairly quickly. She started bleeding and was told she had a miscarriage. Shona said I never experienced a miscarriage and I didn't know what to expect ... it wasn't explained. A few weeks later after this "miscarriage" she started having tremendous pain. Listen to how, what she thought was a kidney stone ended with almost losing her life due to an ectopic pregnancy.
Shona had two more miscarriages and is questioning how much loss she can endure. She shared about wanting to seek out a fertility doctor and her doctor wants her to keep trying.
Topics of Conversation:
· Each miscarriage being processed differently
· Having Physical Situational Depression from the traumatic event with tragic loss
· How much loss can you endure and when is it enough?
· Normalizing loss, grief, mourning and guilt
· Parallel between ectopic pregnancy and kidney stones
"I feel as though it is time to see someone who specializes in this field ... I don't think that it's right that a doctor gets to tell you how much you can put your body through before you can take other measures". "If we have the financial means to move towards the infertility route, we should be allowed to do that" - Shona Jagusch
