Pregnancy After Stillbirth | Winter's Story from
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 сен 2024
- Winter from @StillAPartofUs shares her story about how she decided she was ready to get pregnant again after giving birth to her son Brannan who was stillborn at 39 weeks pregnant. She not only shares her story, but offers advice for other women that are considering trying to get pregnant again after their own stillbirth experiences.
My biggest takeaway from this interview was learning more about how to create space and offer support to someone that is juggling all the emotions that come with pregnancy after a stillbirth. Thank you Winter for the insights and for sharing your personal story as well!

Lost our son Fabian at 40wks on his due date when we found out he had no heartbeat and it’s been 4weeks now since i delivered him..this is the pain that i would never wish even on my worst enemy…
I'm so sorry to hear this. Praying for comfort as you mourn your loss :(
I lost my baby 20days before ...36weeks 4dayss... what's the reason for ur baby 😒
I lost Jude, week 40 as well. My heart and soul is with you. Please smile and feel the warmth when you think of your baby.
I had a stillbirth at 36 week 4 days , around 5 weeks ago, it’s hard it’s really hard. I wish God Almighty gives every one strength to go through this who suffered a loss
I had a stillbirth at 39weeks and 2days last year 2023 December 28 after 13years of waiting for a second child I have been traumatized I don't know who to blame but I pray for peace and I cry when the thought hits me but again I get my strength through our heavenly Father and also having a support system like this so we can relate to each other as a healing process..lots of love💕🧚🏽♀️🕊🇵🇬
I Had a stillborn back in 2019 at 37 weeks I am pregnant again and have so many emotions going through my head. Was my first baby too.
Winter’s channel helped me survive the first month after my daughter was stillborn. Thank you so much Winter.
Yes I'm really happy with my new boy but I wish them both here today. You do have three in you mind and heart.
I had 2 very healthy pregnancies over 30 years ago. We just started the practice of ultrasounds back then, and it never occurred to me that this was a possibility. I never knew anyone who delivered a still born baby, miscarriages yes. I didn't even know still births happened unless there was a trauma, or some type of abnormality in the fetus. And I'm a nurse!
We didn't count movements, or do anything to make a mom aware of a problem. I hate watching so many excited families fall into such grief that comes with a stillbirth. My heart aches for you all, and hope that you will be blessed someday with a family whether of your own flesh and blood or a baby that comes by adoption. Either way, I hope you continue to find solace from this channel.
@@karincampbell9289 thank you ma’am I do have a son he’s almost 3 years old. My daughter was stillborn at 30 weeks gestation and the cause is still unknown.
Winter: You do such a great job allowing moms and dads to tell their stories without talking about your situation. I find it annoying when I'm trying to tell an important story to someone, and the first chance they get, start telling me something that was similar in their lives. It is important that people just listen, and allow the person sharing to be able to talk, without someone telling about a similar experience. You are doing everything right as a podcast host.
I wholeheartedly agree! Winter is an amazing person and impacting so many lives with her work!
Am dealing with the loss of my baby boy,@36weeks 5days and I was searching for you tube channels for thise going through the same as I am as they are in a position to understand. This is encouraging. Thank you Winter
I know how you feel trust me hun I am sorry for your loss 💔🥺🙏🏾
Thank you so much Dr. Nicole, it was a true pleasure to talk with you about stillbirth and pregnancy after a stillbirth.
So thankful for all you do to educate, inform, and build community for women that have experienced this type of tragic loss! Thank you again!
I recently lost my twin baby girls at 30 weeks pregnant. I have been struggling to cope so much but watching these videos help me relate and reading comments from other mommas helps me feel confident that I’ll find comfort soon 🩵
I pray that God will give all of us mother's of still born babies, that he will give us healthy children and we will experience the joy of motherhood
Amen.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I am so so sorry for the loss of your baby boy.. I have lost my (first) baby girl on my due date 12th of October 2023 and where I have got pregnant after 7 years of my marriage life. She was very healthy with 4.05 kgs weight and the reason they have said was bradycardia.. I had to go through emergency csection too.. It's very difficult to come home without my baby girl and to see all her new things which we have bought with whole lot of dreams and her empty room.. I felt like my heart was ripped from my chest ☹️ God is our only hope and I am very sure He will give her back to me very soon and I am going to hold her in my arms with great joy!!
@gracychristinal2280 I am sorry for your lost ,i lost my baby girl due to IC at 19 weeks after 6years of my marriage this is really painful after waiting for so long.i hope god bless you with another rainbow 🌈
Sorry for your loss . I lost my first baby girl on my due date too 28th October 2023. A very healthy baby too till she wasn’t coming out during active labor and even after 2 episiotomy tears , they couldn’t find her heart beat anymore and had to do an emergency cs. It’s been a really tough journey but I believe it’s going to get better and weld celebrate soon. Sending my love to you @gracychristinal2280
What an incredible story! Thank you Winter for sharing, and thank you Nicole for bringing this issue to us. ❤️
Winter is an incredible woman, and I’m so thankful she was willing to share as well!! Thanks for watching Micol💜
Thank you for sharing your story Winter. I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my baby boy last month due to cervix incompetence @ 23 weeks. I felt the same way being punched in the gut. I will focus on loving my next one rather than worrying. Thanks Nicole too for hosting this- y’all did great!
We are so very sorry for your loss -absolutely heartbreaking 💜 we pray that your next pregnancy is filled with all good news and as little stress for you as possible!
I've watched just about all of Winter's loss stories, including hers, I watch them for the other moms but I also watch them to see how it helps Winter herself, what a healthy and helpful way to honor those mothers and the babies that were lost, I also didn't know she had a second son, I am very happy for her and Lee!
She is an amazing women! I'm sure she appreciates your support and kind words!
Congratulations Winter on your new baby boy.
I've followed your channel since your first post of Brannan and the launch of still a part of us. It has and still is helping me cope since i've lost my first baby boy at 39+3 in 2020. I can relate to all if what you've said and all the other women in this unwanted club. All I wanted to do was hear another mom's story, just to know am not alone in this.
We’re so very sorry for your loss 💔very glad winter’s channel and story brought you some comfort after this tragedy. Prayers for you!
Thank you so much for sharing your story Winter. I have been a member of your channel for a long time. You and Lee are such an amazing couple. I just love you both. Brannan is a beautiful baby, and your daughter is a doll. I knew you had another baby but I didn’t know what it was. A boy is fantastic! Congratulations to your entire family sweetheart. I’m so happy for all of you💙. Thanks for sharing Felix’s story with us. I love his name!!!!
Thank you Dr. Nicole for this and Winter thank you for sharing. Winter you have helped me in the hardest time of my life. From the way I think, I do and how I feel. It was so hard to go on RUclips but so grateful I came across your channel still apart of us and you and your husband are amazing! You even lit a candle for my baby boy Giovanni and other beautiful babies in October for pregnancy and infant loss awareness Month and now seeing this Dr. Nicole was so helpful. THANK YOU again ladies. 🤍🕊👼
I'm so sorry for your loss Breanna :( I can't begin to imagine your heartache or grief! Thanks so much for taking the time to comment and I couldn't agree more that Winter's channel is doing amazing things for people in a time of total grief and chaos! She is wonderful!
Thanks for this! I’m 33 weeks in my pregnancy after my stillborn daughter. I was so detached until now . Now I realize I don’t know how to plan for a living baby but still planning for birth. It is a different journey for sure. I would also like to add: dare asking for help or asking friends and family when you need to talk. To me, it helps big time.
And I also dislike the “rainbow baby” term. I feel it puts to much pressure on my actual baby to be perfect after my daughter that I will idealized my whole life.
Thanks for sharing this additional insight! I'm so sorry of your loss. Prayers for you and your baby during this new journey that you're on.
Hi after how long you try for baby after stillbirth...
I have never had a loss. However I love Winter and that was great advice.
Winter is an amazing woman! I couldn’t agree more!
I just feel so bad if people have to go through a stillbirth and everything winter God bless you you're telling your story and everything
She is so brave for sharing! thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
@@DoctorNicole not a problem❤
I had a stillborn son at 27 weeks in July of 2022. In Sept of 2023 we got pregnant again, and successfully gave birth in May of 2024. But like Winter said, after a loss, your heart and mind are traumatized, and subsequent pregnancies will be filled with new worries. With my last pregnancy, we decided to buy a home baby Doppler, which we used almost everyday to check his heartbeat. I also downloaded the Counting Kicks app, which I used starting at 25 weeks. I also agree with being our own advocate to doctors and nurses, even if they call us hypochondriacs. 😅 Thank you Winter for sharing your story! 💙
Winter hit on a very important thing, and something I really encourage patent I work with having a baby again after the loss of an infant, is that they don't want to hold back from being involved in this new pregnancy and loving this baby for who they are. In our case it was our daughter who, even though young herself, pointed out that that was what we were doing. In her mind we were being unfair to her expected sibling and looking back I am glad she woke us up to what was happening. During my pregnancy with her, and her sister that was stillborn, I had kept pregnancy memory books, which were something she periodically really enjoyed reviewing, along with the baby book, I kept that recorded her first 7 years. I was about 14 weeks pregnant when she decided to take us to task for not having started a pregnancy book for her new brother ( we knew the gender from early DNA testing that is done at the facility we used for high risk pregnancies - which they placed any mother in that was having a pregnancy after a still birth especially if the reason was unclear as to what had happened). She was 8 at teh time and one night at dinner pointed out that not having started a book for her brother was unfair as we already hit important things that had been recorded and documented so well for her and her sister and she really thought that it was already unfair as her brother would not have a book about him as she had that she really loved having and thought very important. In her own way she jarred us into realizing that we were avoiding making and rejoicing in memories simply as away to protect ourselves. The next day she and I went shopping for a scrap book to start a pregnancy book and in 2 days had gotten her brother's pregnancy book caught up to the current week of pregnancy. I had a lot of problems with sometimes being forced to update the book at least weekly but after a very normal delivery with a healthy baby that we had those memories that we captured when they happened and how horrible I would have felt to have not had them recorded and a lot of that lost to time.
When I started working full time with NICU parents and eventually started working with parent groups for those having whats become known as Rainbow babies, keeping such a memory book has actually ended up being a very important therapeutic tools, as it has helped many parents who are steeling themselves against what they believe will be an inevitable repeat of the past, at least make memories of the current pregnancy and a connection with the new life they are carrying. Its been very helpful in cases where a mother is having some initial problems connecting once the child is born and is healthy to go back and read through the book which one mother told me had the connections she was looking for between its covers and how as she read through and reminded her of things that she was actually blocking out caused things to click and she suddenly felt very connected to her new baby. In other cases it help parents etablis a pre-birth relationship they feared with a child that they were having after having lost a baby. And actually, have even been told by the cases where history sadly repeated itself that, they were happy as the grieved a second child that they had a record of their pregnancy which really was something they needed as part of healing again. Many pointed out that they did not realize when they lost their first child how important their prenatal relationship and memories had been while working through the loss, but they were definitely avoiding making those connections the next time, which they realized would have made going through it a second time more difficult if they had not been forced by keeping such a journal to make the connection and the memories that had helped the first time.
Wow , I don’t feel alone with your thoughts winter . I feel the same as you .
Thank you both so much in your endeavours to share your loss, give support and educate others. So well expressed. Appreciate you very much.

My wife and I lost our daughter 4 weeks ago today at 39 weeks I’m sorry for your loss
@@allindafac3 it’s a club no one asked to be a part of but unfortunately, so many are. i’m so sorry for you both and your precious baby! did he/she have a name? :)
@@marleec8548 thank you , yes her name was Camila , we hold her very close to our hearts
I do appreciate the trauma losing a baby causes. I appreciate the happiness having a healthy baby brings. Nobody appreciates the life-long sadness not having had a baby or been pregnant brings. This topic doesn't exist. Childless women have no value in society. They are perceived as selfish even though many times nobody knows the reason why a woman is childless.
If the hiccups are normal or not in 36weeks...I lost my baby when he had hiccups in the womb after the 3hiccups there is no movements 😭😭😭then Dr told that there is no heart beat
We are so very sorry to hear about your loss. To the best of our knowledge, there is no correlation between hiccups and stillbirth, but we are extremely sorry to hear that this was your experience :(
I am heart broken 💔 I lost my daughter 39weeks and 4days 16/11/2023 and my dou date was 27/11/2023 this is 😢sad
Sorry for your loss . I lost my baby girl too on my due date 28th October 2023. Sending you love ❤

I'm dumbfounded that she did not get asked about how her first pregnancy went like she asks her guests on her you tube podcast. She said she was glad she didn't have to but she asks all her guests how the whole pregnancy went. But not her. She said if that happened she would cry. I'm sorry but she should have to go through what her guests go through as she pushes them all for every detail. She did hit the highlights but fjr her to say"I was hoping you wouldn't be asking me about the whole pregnancy because I would probably cry". Not fair as that's what she does to her guests
(Gasp) I knew it it’s winter from @StilAPartofUs
