Being a parent is something that many of us consider a milestone moment that we are, or were excited about. Embracing our nurturing nature can feel like it’s best geared towards being a mother, but not all of us will experience the reality of becoming a biological mother. When we encompass love, care and support for others around us we exercise our maternal instincts beyond biological bonds. Let’s never forget to celebrate the strength, resilience and tenderness of women who still positively impact the lives of many, despite the heartfelt and unfulfilled dreams of becoming a mother.
How can we get through the grief of desiring children but never having a pregnancy make it to full term? Watch as our hosts Rachel Calland and Sinead Minkah are joined by Andrea Pattico in the Magnify Studio for Ep 43 ‘I Didn’t Choose a Child-free Life: Mourning the Mother I Wanted to Be’.
