Welcome to the Blindsided podcast, a source of support for those going through pregnancy, infant, or child loss. This unexpected and devastating experience can leave us wholly blindsided, not only by the event itself but also by the fact that it could happen to us or those close to us. Our mission is to provide a safe space for those who have been blindsided, to share their heartfelt stories about the babies they cherished.Throughout these episodes, we will feature stories of dearly missed children, narrated by their mothers, birthing or non-birthing partners, fathers, siblings, or grandparents. By sharing these experiences, we aim to offer solace and guidance to those who are newly blindsided, showing that it’s possible to endure and find hope, knowing that others have been through similar journeys and comprehend their pain.Our goal is to resonate with individuals who seek understanding and hope during these challenging times of grief.
