Listen "I Lost My Mom While Pregnant. How Do I Move Forward?"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome back to So Glad You Asked with Dr. Ruta Nonacs! In this episode, we’re holding space for the often overlooked experience of grief during pregnancy and the postpartum period. We hear from a mother who navigated the loss of her own mom while pregnant with her second child — and how that profound loss shaped her postpartum experience, including her struggle with postpartum depression. Later, we sit down with Hannah Bonoyer, BSN, RN, PMH-C, a seasoned labor and delivery nurse and perinatal behavioral health coach. She offers compassionate guidance for navigating grief in the perinatal period. Whether you’re in the midst of grief or walking alongside someone who is, we hope this episode offers you practical insights, gentle validation, and a sense of connection — wherever you are in your story. As always, we’re so glad you asked!Recommended Resources:More of postpartum depression at womensmentalhealth.orgLearn more about Hope Edelman and the Motherless Daughters CommunityConnect with a Specialized Coordinator at Postpartum Support InternationalDisclaimer: This podcast is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical care.
