My guest is Lindsey Henke. Lindsey is the founder and Executive Director of Pregnancy After Loss Support. This is also a website and important resource for women and their families who go on to conceive another pregnancy after losing a pregnancy, their baby is stillborn and/or their infant dies after birth.

She is a clinical social worker specializing as a reproductive mental health therapist with a focus on the grief and trauma that happens after a perinatal loss and the pregnancy that follows. She is also a writer, wife, and mother to two beautiful daughters and one sweet boy. Tragically, her oldest daughter, Nora, was stillborn after a healthy full-term pregnancy in December 2012. Lindsey’s second daughter, Zoe, was born healthy and alive in March of 2014 and her son Liev was born in 2016.

Her writing about life after having a stillborn daughter has been featured in Listen to Your Mother, Scary Mommy, Healthline, and The New York Times. Lindsey has had the honor of speaking all over the world on conceiving a pregnancy after a experiencing the unimaginable trauma of previous perinatal loss, including at the 2020 Moms’ Maternal Mental Health Forum, The Pregnancy and Infant Death Alliance Conference, The Postpartum Support International Conference, The Stillbirth Summit, and at The International Women’s Maternal Mental Health Conference in Paris.
