Bereaved Motherhood and all it Entails
Bereaved Motherhood and all it Entails. Hi my name is Mackenzie and my firstborn son, Maverick John, was stillborn October 5th, 2019 at 39 weeks 2 days. I am passionate about our babies gone too soon regardless if SIDS, Stillbirth, or something else took them. This is a podcast walking through the journey of bereaved motherhood. It is designed to be a support to you wonderful mommas and provide a safe community where the hard often taboo topics are discussed. We also seek to raise awareness and educate family friends, and the broader community on a topic that rarely is often ignored. It is also our desire to help others better understand how our loss affects us, what is and isn't helpful, and how others can support and love those walking this road.
