In this second episode of the "Breaking the Silence of Stillbirth Guilt" series, I'm sharing something I struggled with deeply myself—those relentless 3:00 AM thoughts that make you feel like it's all your fault. If you ever find yourself retracing every moment of your pregnancy looking for what you missed, or blaming yourself for things that felt out of your control, this episode is for you.

We'll talk about how trauma brain operates differently from logical brain, why it fixates on blame, and how you can break free from its grip. I’ll share practical steps you can take the next time those "what if" thoughts spiral out of control and how to stop letting guilt steal your memories.

You don’t need to carry the weight of this alone. Let’s sort out the truth together.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why trauma brain always looks for someone to blame (usually you)
• The difference between logical thinking and trauma responses
• Common guilt stories many loss moms replay
• How to spot the physical signs of trauma in your body
• A 3-step process to interrupt guilt spirals and reclaim peace
• How holding onto guilt prevents you from honoring your baby
• The hidden physical toll of carrying emotional blame
