The Worst Girl Gang Ever

S9 E32 - Jess & Charlie, stillbirth and pregnancy after loss


Listen Later

TW - there is chat about pregnancy after loss in this episode 

This week we’re joined by Jess, who so beautifully shares the story of her little boy, Charlie.

Together, we talk about those first, fleeting moments of parenthood - the ones that take your breath away and never really leave you. We chat about the choices we make in those early hours: whether to take photos, what and how we want to remember, and what we decide to leave just as it was.

Jess opens up about letting the midwives take the lead, the incredible charity Remember My Baby. We explore how time shifts in grief - how the smallest details, like how he looked then, can stay vivid in your heart.

It’s an emotional, honest, and beautifully human conversation - one that reminds us that however we choose to remember, it’s the love that lasts.

Spoiler alert... it DID rain at the London to Brighton... big time.

Takeaways

  • Holding onto those first memories of when he was born
  • Trusting the midwives and letting them guide the moment
  • The amazing work of Remember My Baby
  • The small, unmistakable signs that time has passed
  • Remembering exactly how he looked
  • Finding ways to cherish those first moments, whatever that looks like for you
