The quietest grief decisions are often the heaviest: what do you do with the diapers, the crib, the stroller, and the baby shower gifts when you come home without a baby? I’m Gina Gonzalez, and I’m opening up an honest conversation many of us get left to figure out alone, the emotional and practical reality of baby items after pregnancy loss.

I walk through how my choices changed over time, from passing along wipes and samples before they expired, to wrestling with the unspoken “etiquette” of giving away gifts. If you’ve ever wondered whether friends and family will feel offended, whether you’re allowed to donate baby items, or whether keeping everything means you’re still hoping, you’re not alone.

You’ll also hear the middle paths that don’t get talked about enough: saving a few personal keepsakes, gifting big-ticket gear to a sibling who’s expecting, donating toys to a shelter supporting young mothers, and letting each step be its own small decision instead of one sweeping moment. The core takeaway is simple: there’s no right or wrong answer here, only what supports your healing.

If you have a topic you’d like me to cover on the podcast, or if you would like to share your creative coping strategies to help our listeners, I’d love to hear from you. Please contact me by:
