Pregnancy Loss. Miscarriage

Abstract

Emma Hansen is 39 weeks and 6 days pregnant when she feels her baby go quiet inside of her. At the hospital, her worst fears are confirmed: doctors explain that her baby has died, and she will need to deliver him, still.

Hansen gives birth to her son, Reid, amidst an avalanche of grief. Nine days later, she publishes a candid essay on her website sharing photos from the delivery room. Much to her surprise, her essay goes viral, sparking positive reactions around the world. Still shares what comes next: a struggle with grief and confusion alongside a desire to better understand stillbirth, which is experienced by more than two million women annually, but rarely talked about in public.

Abstract

The beauty of life! Babies grow and thrive in their own ways. Told from the perspective of a resilient baby who fought to be in this world, share this story with your family and friends to spread hope and love.

Inspired by the birth of our daughter who was growth restricted in the womb, born prematurely, and spent her first two weeks of life in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), we want to raise awareness about intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR).
