In the summer of 2021 I chatted with Theresa Mitchell, executive producer at Jhene Productions, who was finalising her documentary programme 'Life After Loss'.  The aim of the documentary is to empower and give voice to many unnoticed women who struggle with infertility, pregnancy and infant loss.  We talk about the differences in the UK and US healthcare services, grieving for miscarried or sleeping babies and how to deal with trauma positively. Theresa reminds us that, as women, regardless of our colour or background, we have a choice and that, whatever happens, it's okay not to be okay.

Marita Nizam is the author of 'Little Rabbit and the Grumpy Poos'.
