So important to share these stories. Miscarriage is isolating, it's a disenfranchised grief which few recognise.

‘Knowing when ‘enough is enough’ might be the end of one chapter… but it is the beginning of a new one.’ Making the decision to stop #fertility treatment can be unbelievably painful and difficult. Thank you to 𝒦ℯ𝓁𝓁𝓎 𝒟𝒶 𝒮𝒾𝓁𝓋𝒶 fertilitynetworkuk.org/fertility-trea… #TalkFertility #childlessness

A big hand to everyone who showed support for #worldadoptionday! This year, we look to the symbol where the 3 points of the triangle symbolise the child, adopted parents and the birth parents, which for some encapsulates the experience of adoption better than the smiley face.

While most workplaces have a maternity policy, many don’t have established policies about pregnancy loss. There’s helpful information and guidance for employees and employers on our website here: miscarriageassociation.org.uk/information/mi…

Being Human is hard. Let's just give each other space to be who we are, to experience what unfolds in our lives and compassion as we process what we need to. #worldkindnessday #kindness #beinghumanishard #compassion #bekind #youarenotalone #everystorymatters
