Episode Title: Navigating Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month: Finding Your Own Way Through Grief
Episode Summary:
In this heartfelt episode of the Pregnancy Loss and Motherhood Podcast, host Vallen Webb opens up about what Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month means to her as a loss mom six years after saying goodbye to her daughter, Evelyn, who was stillborn at 40 weeks and 5 days.
Vallen explores the many ways families experience this month—some feeling overwhelmed by constant reminders, others finding connection and empowerment in sharing their stories. She offers gentle, practical tools for navigating the first days of October, including:
- How to use social media intentionally and protect your mental health
- Ways to incorporate your baby into everyday life and family traditions
- The importance of taking a “vacation from grief” when needed
- Advocacy reminders about the stillbirth crisis and why awareness matters
Whether this is your first October or your twentieth, this episode is a safe space to feel seen, supported, and reminded that there is no “right” way to grieve. You’ll hear Vallen’s personal reflections, family traditions, and even the little ways her living children keep Evelyn’s memory alive.
If you are walking this road of loss, know that your story matters. Your baby matters. And you are not alone.
