Birth, Loss & Love: Lucette Romy’s Journey Through the Unthinkable


Listen Later

In Episode 87 of The Road to Wisdom Podcast, Chloe and Keshia have a deeply moving conversation with Lucette Romy as she courageously shares the story of her pregnancy, birth, and the unimaginable loss of her baby, Dash Ra, just hours after he entered the world.

Lucette reflects on her pregnancy—one that was filled with ease and trust in her body—and explains her decision to free birth at home, supported by a birth keeper rather than a hospital setting. She takes us through her labor, the intensity and triumph of birth, and the moments that followed, leading to the heartbreaking loss of her and her partner Tom’s baby boy.

In this conversation, Lucette bravely recounts the devastating aftermath—navigating grief, the painful uncertainty of waiting months for answers, and the deeply traumatic experience of an autopsy. She opens up about the emotional and logistical challenges that come with losing a baby, shedding light on the often-overlooked complexities of postpartum loss.

We also explore the vital roles of doulas, midwives, and birth keepers in supporting birthing mothers and discuss the importance of informed choices in all birth settings. Through her own heartbreaking experience, Lucette has found purpose in creating a resource for other mothers—offering guidance, support, and knowledge for those who may experience a similar loss or simply want to understand their options should the unthinkable happen.

This is a tender and powerful episode that honors the depth of a mother’s love, the pain of loss, and the resilience of the human spirit.

Lucette can be found on Ig @lucetteromy and on her podcast @sanamama_
