Relationships in general with those closest to you are often strained after a baby loss. It's hard to be around people who want you to be your old self again when you know that person is no longer there. The hardest person to connect with is often the one you love the most- your husband or partner.

Communication is vital in repairing any type of relationship breakdown, but when you are in the throes of grief and are experiencing severe hormonal shifts it takes a lot of effort to communicate effectively.

Couples who have a pregnancy loss or stillbirth run a 22% greater chance of divorcing than couples who never experience a loss.

This episode inspired me to create a PDF with these ideas and more written out for you to download that you can get at jennifersenn.com/couples

October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, so I created Life Beyond Loss—a four-week series of free workshops designed to give you the tools and support you need to navigate life after loss. These sessions will help you quiet the guilt, handle hurtful comments with confidence, rediscover who you are, and prepare for those painful milestone dates with a plan.
