<p class="">A conversation that includes Rachel’s story of miscarriage, infant loss, adoption, and the recent birth of another baby. Rachel shares her definition of rainbow baby, which is more complicated because of her experience losing two rainbow babies, Clive and Winnie. Through the unimaginable grief of losing two newborns to unrelated heart issues, Rachel and her husband found the courage to continue to pursue their dream to grow their family through the adoption of their daughter Corrie and another pregnancy that resulted in the birth of their son Miles. Throughout the years of these experiences Rachel began writing her book, <em>Grieve, Create, Believe </em>as a way to not only process her own grief through telling her story, but also to help others do the same. Rachel is honest in her sharing and I am in awe of the realness and resilience of her faith journey through some of the darkest times.</p><p class=""></p><p class="">Some of the topics we talk about:</p><p class="">-Dealing with the <strong>desire to get pregnant immediately after loss</strong></p><p class="">-Rachel’s <strong>NICU experiences</strong></p><p class="">-<strong>VBAC</strong> after loss</p><p class="">-Going through <strong>adoption after loss</strong>, including a failed adoption</p><p class="">-Coping with <strong>fear in deciding to try again</strong> after losing two newborns</p><p class="">-Getting comfortable with <strong>people not understanding</strong> the specific path that you’re walking</p><p class="">-Coping with <strong>anxiety</strong> during pregnancy after loss</p><p class="">-Dealing with <strong>guarded and complicated feelings</strong> after giving birth to a rainbow baby</p><p class="">-Learning to <strong>ask for help in motherhood</strong> after loss</p><p class="">-How Rachel’s <strong>faith in God</strong> became stronger through grief</p><p class="">-Expressing <strong>anger towards God</strong></p><p class="">-Responding to <strong>Christian clichés</strong></p><p class="">-Rachel’s <strong>advice for parents</strong> going through pregnancy after loss<br></p><p class="">—</p><p class=""></p><p class="">Connect with Rachel on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/rachelgeorgewrites/" target="">@rachelgeorgewrites</a>, her <a href="https://samandrachelgeorge.com/blog/" target="">blog</a>, and <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Grieve-Create-Believe-Process-Intention/dp/0578617196/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=rachel%20george&qid=1577501609&sr=8-1" target="">purchase her book Grieve, Create, Believe on Amazon</a>.</p><p class=""><br>To connect with me visit <a href="http://taylorashleybates.com">taylorashleybates.com</a> and find me on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/taylorashleybates/" target="">@taylorashleybates</a></p><p class=""></p><p class="">And please share this podcast with anyone you know who is walking through life after pregnancy loss, whether they are trying to conceive, currently pregnant, or parenting after loss.</p>
