In this powerful episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, hosts Bex Gunn and Laura Buckingham speak with Georgie, former Great British Bake Off contestant, neonatal nurse, and bereaved mother, about her raw, unfiltered journey through stillbirth, miscarriage, baby loss, ADHD, and life after unimaginable grief. Georgie shares the heartbreaking story of losing her daughter Avery at 24+6 weeks during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic — a loss she believes could have been prevented if her concerns had been listened to. As a neonatal nurse who had saved babies younger than her daughter, Georgie's insight into medical negligence, maternal instinct, and the failures in perinatal care is both devastating and eye-opening. We explore: Stillbirth at 24 weeks — warning signs, reduced fetal movement, and why maternal gut instinct matters. Hospital negligence and baby loss during COVID-19 — and why many mothers feel unheard. Life after losing a baby — anger, guilt, and the long road to emotional survival. ADHD in women — how a late diagnosis reshaped Georgie's understanding of herself. Grief and parenting after baby loss — raising surviving children while carrying trauma. Why ‘everything happens for a reason' is the worst thing you can say to a grieving parent. This is an episode about speaking up, breaking the silence, and refusing to accept that baby loss, miscarriage, and stillbirth should remain taboo. Georgie's story is one of pain, survival, and finding a way forward when you feel you can't take another step. Whether you are a bereaved parent, navigating pregnancy after loss, living with ADHD, or supporting someone through infant loss, this conversation offers honesty, validation, and hope.

I'm back and with a mini "rebrand"...At a Total Loss is now Living the Loss Life because well, that's what I'm doing every single day and I'm here to share it with you.When I first hit record, I was drowning. I had just lost Brody only 4 months prior. I was raw, wrecked, and trying to survive the total devastation of stillbirth. That title—At a Total Loss—fit where I was. But grief doesn't stay in one place...and neither do we.In losing him, I've also gained so much:Perspective. Purpose. A community. A deeper love. A different version of myself.So it's time, for the podcast to evolve, too.In this episode I fill you in on what's been happening since I took a mini break (whoops) and what's happening next. I had a wild experience in Albania and I finally tell Wolfy's birth story since he turns TWO YEARS OLD on June 6th! holy moly. All of this is to let you know you're not alone no matter what stage you're in. Thank you for staying on this path with me. We're still grieving. We're still healing. But now we're living even though we've lost.

This episode explores the often unspoken realities of baby loss, miscarriage grief, and the trauma of stillbirth at 20 weeks, while also offering compassionate insight into the emotional and physical impact of losing a baby. From the shock of a sudden labour to the heartbreak of leaving hospital without her daughter Olive, Hannah's story is one that every person navigating pregnancy after loss, infertility struggles, or grief after miscarriage needs to hear.

Episode 2590: Jessica Jondle sheds light on the often-overlooked reality of postpartum anxiety, a condition distinct from postpartum depression but just as disruptive. Learn to recognize the signs, understand the causes, and explore effective treatment options so you or a loved one can move from constant worry to confident motherhood. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.healthline.com/health/pregnancy/postpartum-anxiety Quotes to ponder: "Sometimes it's something more. If your anxiety seems out of control, has you on edge most of the time, or keeps you up at night, you may have more than the new-parent jitters." "You can certainly have PPD and postpartum anxiety at the same time, but you may also have one without the other." "The baby blues are common, but they usually only last a couple weeks. If you're dealing with longer-term, severe worry and symptoms that are getting in the way of life with baby, tell your doctor."

Still A Part of Us: A podcast about stillbirth and infant loss
Heather and Winter sit together and talk about the birth of Rosemary, who was stillborn at 37 weeks due to a blood clot in the umbilical cord, known as umbilical cord thrombosis. Heather talks about the sickness she felt in the first trimester and needing to go to the hospital for an IV drip. How everything was going perfect until she stopped feeling Rosemary's movement, and having to go into the hospital alone due to early COVID19 protocol and receiving the news that there was no heartbeat.
