About this episode

Gretchen shares her experience of being pregnant after a miscarriage, discussing the complex emotions involved.

In this week’s episode, Gretchen shares the news that she is pregnant, and gets very honest about what pregnancy after loss actually feels like. She talks through conceiving after her January miscarriage, the anxiety of waiting on bloodwork, checking HCG and progesterone levels, seeing the heartbeat, and the emotional whiplash of feeling deeply grateful and absolutely terrified at the same time. Gretchen also shares how different this pregnancy feels from Lennon’s, from brutal nausea and food aversions to the gender results sitting unopened in her inbox. This episode is raw, hopeful, and very real. If you’ve ever experienced pregnancy after loss, miscarriage, intrusive thoughts, or the fear of celebrating too soon, this one will feel honest, comforting, and a little less lonely. 📧 To get in touch with the podcast, email: teamgretchen@avoiragency.com __ 💕 Watch episodes on Youtube and follow Gretchen on Instagram and Tiktok __ ✅ Please make sure to subscribe, follow, rate and review!
