Talking Away the Taboo with Dr. Aimee Baron

175. "I Will Always Be Someone Who Lost Her Twins" an Anonymous TFMR story


Listen Later

In this anonymous and deeply moving episode, a woman shares the story she never imagined would be hers.   She always thought getting pregnant would be a struggle, but when it finally happened naturally (and it was twins!), there were mixed emotions... because she and her husband both carry a serious genetic disorder. And that meant there was a possibility the babies might be affected.   What follows is a harrowing journey of diagnostic testing, endless waiting, and pain. This is a story about maternal love, medical complexity, and emotional devastation. About the babies she chose to protect, even if it meant letting them go. About what life looks like after, and how a single question—“How many kids do you have?”—can carry a thousand invisible layers.   She speaks straight to the hearts of those who’ve faced impossible choices, and to the people who want to support them but don’t know how. It’s not an easy listen, but it’s a necessary one.    Content warning: This episode includes discussions of TFMR (termination for medical reasons), genetic illness, and pregnancy loss.    Mentions: Jscreen Genetic testing
