**Trigger warning: In this episode we discuss stillbirth, Edwards Syndrome (also known as Trisomy 18) and pregnancy termination.**

This week we had the absolute honour of talking with Rainey about her experience with stillbirth, and then with Edwards Syndrome, resulting in pregnancy termination.

Rainey has been through so much in the past few years and was so open and honest with us about her experience. This episode is touching, raw, genuine, and heart breaking.

We want to say a huge thank you to Rainey for being so honest and brave, and for sharing her story so publicly so that other women know they are not alone. We strongly believe this topic needs more exposure and were so honoured that Rainey was willing to share her experience on our platform.

Sending so much love to Rainey and any other women who have encountered loss.
