When Laurie and Joe found out they were going to have a baby, they were very excited. They told a few friends, picked out a name for the baby, and even started a flower garden for their little one. But on the day of her ultrasound, Laurie found out the baby didn't have a heartbeat.
What followed next was the heartbreaking process of miscarriage. In this memoir, Laurie shares some of her most memorable moments, from the time she realized she was losing her baby to her personal healing process.
Though writing this book was difficult for Laurie, she feels the topic of miscarriage isn't discussed enough, causing many women to suffer in silence. She hopes this book will help other women feel more empowered to share their stories. She also hopes her story will help women feel less alone.
Told from an Indigenous point of view, A Miscarriage Memoir offers readers insight into a woman's pain and recovery. It also provides resources and healthy coping tips that First Nations Bands and Tribes can use to support the women in their communities who may feel like they have few options.
