このコンテンツについて
Molly endured the life-or-death experience of an ectopic pregnancy. Then, when her obstetrician said it was safe, she got pregnant again and delivered a healthy baby boy.
Today, she has two children under the age of two. And while Molly is grateful to have had two successful pregnancies, the journey was fraught with the frustration of having to explain her history again and again.
So, what can we do to make women who’ve experienced pregnancy loss feel supported?
On this episode of Tell Me More, Molly joins me to discuss her first pregnancy, walking us through the nine weeks leading up to an emergency ultrasound and surgery to treat her ectopic pregnancy.
She explains how three different practitioners offered very different prognoses for her second pregnancy and what she did to take charge of the process when she was pregnant for the third time.
Listen in to understand why the system doesn’t work for women who’ve experienced pregnancy loss and learn what obstetricians can do to support women during and after an ectopic pregnancy.
