The Understanding Heart with Brittany Rathge

I created The Understanding Heart, a blog and Instagram account to help give women and families who have experienced pregnancy loss a space to grieve and share their stories. I had a miscarriage in early 2020 at 10 weeks and 5 days. It was my first pregnancy and we named him Anthony. As if the experience of losing our first pregnancy wasn’t enough, what we experienced after our loss was why I created this space. I realized there was no one to support the families through this experience. The miscommunication and heartache we experienced even after we were told there was no heartbeat still haunts me to this day. 

It’s my hope that we can continue to speak about these babies that didn’t make it earth-side to amplify the experiences of families experiencing pregnancy loss so they know they are not alone.
