Description

A comprehensive and compassionate roadmap to healing after miscarriage

Moving Forward (Not Moving On) doesn't sugarcoat the truth. Miscarriage is traumatic, and it's a type of trauma that we rarely discuss. Author and miscarriage doula Arden Cartrette understands the need for support and guidance to move through grief after the emotional turmoil of loss. In this book, she offers validation and practical strategies for surviving, coping, and--eventually--thriving again. You'll learn how to manage triggers, navigate social interactions, and reclaim your wellbeing, bit by bit. With empathy and expertise, the author helps create a safe and supportive space for you to explore your experiences, process your emotions, and find hope for the future.

  • Learn about the social and psychological complexities surrounding the experience of miscarriage--and know that you aren't alone
  • Process what happened alongside your family or within a supportive community
  • Give yourself time to grieve at your own pace and permission to move forward when you're ready
  • Gain the knowledge you need to make the best choice about your fertility options after miscarriage

This book offers valuable insights and advice to anyone who has experienced miscarriage, whether firsthand or as a partner or loved one.
