In episode #128, Luvy shares her personal story of loss. She found out she was pregnant about a month before her wedding, and she and her now husband happily shared the news. When she began bleeding about an hour after landing in Mexico for the wedding, she rushed to a doctor who gave her progesterone.
Luvy shares how she was able to lean on her support system and enjoy her wedding and honeymoon festivities despite the uncertainty with her pregnancy, as her miscarriage was not confirmed until after they returned to the United States. We discuss how society views miscarriage, what women should actually know about it, and the medical approach to miscarriage that so often leaves women feeling alone and unsure of what to do next.
Topics Discussed: low progesterone, miscarriage after hearing the heartbeat, miscarriage and pregnancy symptoms, missed miscarriage, endocrinology, cardiology, dilation and curettage (D&C), leaning on your support network
