Über diesen Titel

In the final episode of Season 2, we meet Kimberly Lockhart, bereaved Mama to Wilder Jay, who was stillborn at full term. Kimberly shares Wilder Jay’s birth story and her deep need for connection and resources to support her grief journey, which led her and other bereaved parents to organize the inaugural Vancouver Butterfly Run in 2019. Today, the Butterfly Run supports the Butterfly Support Network, which helps families whose lives have been touched by infertility, pregnancy loss, and infant loss. As Wilder Jay’s legacy, the Butterfly Support Network aims to ensure that anyone who experiences loss on their journey to parenthood finds community and doesn’t walk alone.Key Insights[3:44] “...we were able to have access to a Cuddle Cot.”CuddleCots provide continuous regulated cooling, enabling families extended time to create memories, welcome family, receive support and plan.[5:19] “...the first question was like: do I have to go through the delivery process?And of course, the answer was yes, right?”Unless there is a medical reason for recommending a cesarean section (c-section), most people whose baby has died before labour begins will be advised to have a vaginal birth.
