Summary

 In this deeply personal episode, Lizzie shares the story of two miscarriages she experienced in her 40s — one a chemical pregnancy, and the other a baby who stopped growing at 6 weeks but wasn’t discovered until her 8-week ultrasound.

Even as a mom to five healthy boys, Lizzie reflects on how these losses shaped her, reminding us that gratitude for living children doesn’t erase the grief of the babies we never get to hold. With honesty and compassion, she opens a conversation about the silence around miscarriage, the weight of words, and the slow process of healing.

This episode is for anyone who has walked through pregnancy loss, or for those who want to better understand how to support someone who has.

💌 Thank you for your patience with this late post — I had some technical difficulties, but I knew this story was too important not to share.
