43. Coping with Pregnancy Loss and Finding Hope After Miscarriage with Allison Schaaf


Listen Later

Miscarriage is an experience no one wants to face, yet so many women do—often in silence. In this episode, I sit down with Allison Schaaf, founder of Miscarriage Hope Desk, to talk about the emotional and physical toll of pregnancy loss, how to process grief, and what it looks like to find hope again.

Whether you're trying to conceive after a vasectomy reversal, navigating recurrent pregnancy loss, or simply struggling with the uncertainty of your fertility journey, this conversation will remind you that you are not alone. Allison shares her personal story of six losses, what led her to create Miscarriage Hope Desk, and the resources she’s developed to help women advocate for themselves, find support, and heal emotionally and physically.

In This Episode, We Discuss:

  • The emotional toll of miscarriage and pregnancy after loss
  • How to advocate for yourself with doctors and push for testing
  • Common misconceptions about miscarriage and fertility
  • The impact of miscarriage on marriage and how partners grieve differently
  • Practical ways to process grief and find support
  • Faith, healing, and trusting God’s timing
  • If you’ve experienced a miscarriage or are in the midst of a long fertility journey, this episode is for you.
