This is Beyond Grief with author, Pippa Vosper.

This week, I’m talking with author, journalist & presenter, Pippa Vosper. Pippa is most noted for her written features in British Vogue and as of recently, her first book “ Beyond Grief”Pippa and I found one another well over a year ago online and immediately connected. Though both coming from two extremely different bereavements, I value and resonate with so many of pippas words and anecdotes. In todays episode, Pippa takes us back to the day her son Axel died when she was 5 months pregnant. The instinctive moment she knew her baby was going to die that night. The moments she spent with Axel alone, soaking in every moment of and with him. The shock of it all. I’m not going to sugar coat Grief Gang, this episode is tough. But it is real. So, so real. Pippa is not and will not be the last parent to experience this. The loss of a child that didn’t reach full term is so silenced. So swept under the rug because the outer world didn't have a relation or lay their eyes on this baby. But does that make this loss any less to the likes of Pippa and many other mothers and fathers? Baby loss, from my 3 years of doing grief gang, is one of those areas that many outside of that loss community shy away from. Maybe because it’s too unfathomable? Yeah, you’re right, it is. It’s utterly heartbreaking. But it happens and is happening, and it’s about time we get a bit more geared up to talk about it.Pippa’s book Beyond Grief is doing exactly that. It covers every aspect of pregnancy and baby loss at any stage, from the practical to the emotional, with advice from experts and stories from women who have been through it themselves, such as ……God I could go on for ages talking about Pippa and how much admiration I have for her. I am so proud to call her a friend. Her support, love and frankness is unmatched! We need more Pippa’s!!To the mums and dads listening, my heart is with you during this baby loss awareness week.
