Resumen del Editor

Let me first say how sorry I am, because few experiences in life can be more devastating than losing your baby.

If you are reading these lines, you have already experienced for yourself that pregnancy loss can break you, leaving an empty hole and fractured heart where your baby once was. Pregnancy loss is a real loss and can leave you feeling the exact opposite of whole: empty, isolated, broken, damaged. You have a right to be seen, heard, acknowledged, and held and know that you're not alone in this traumatic grief. You deserve more than a simple guide to overcome this time.

This book will be like a friend for you and represents a practice tool through the painful emotions and psychological impact of losing your baby. Be sure: You are not alone! You will receive deep and loving support and discover:

• How to acknowledge, allow, and feel the shock, anger, and sadness so that you can make space for the grief
• When and where to get support when you feel overwhelmed and lost
• How to face social isolation
• How to calm anxious thoughts, and how to take care of your mind, body, and soul
• Increased self-awareness so you can navigate close relationships with your partner, well-meaning friends, and family
• Real tips to reduce stress

This is not another book telling you all of the medical reasons why you may have lost your baby, but it will be a concrete support for your emotion and your heart. In my career as a nurse and holistic life coach, I am passionate about therapeutic relationships and helping women navigate the emotional and psychological trauma of life and find peace…even when life is not okay and you have suffered the unimaginable, devastating loss of your baby.

There are ways to holistically feel whole again, and believe me, you get to feel that way again!

If you need help to face the trauma of this loss and feel whole, then you need to listen to this audiobook.

Highly Recommend

This book was incredibly informational and encouraging. It helped with my grief tremendously. This book helped me to feel not alone. I even recommend this for others who know someone who has experienced pregnancy loss.

The healing and validation I was looking for…

This book has given me the much needed words to validate such a painful and traumatic experience of losing my baby. It is beautifully written and listening to the audio book was like having a conversation with a friend. A friend I could come back to and be with when I needed one. A calm and understanding voice that could verbalize the thoughts and feelings I struggle with relating to my loss. It has opened me up to my healing journey and one that I will be forever grateful for. It made me feel a little less alone, knowing there are other people out there who need this book just as much as I do.

Light at the end of the tunnel

Beautiful book...! I fell in love with the book in chapter 1. l listened to the Audio book, Heather is an exceptional writer and the tone used in the audio is soothing. She draws the listener in and makes one feel like she is right there with them. It's definitely a go to book for anyone who needs comfort during their most challenging time...!

Very helpful

This book helped me a lot during this difficult time. The author made me feel heard and she described how I felt word for word. Very gentle and emphatic read. Informative too. I highly recommend this book to women who have experienced a pregnancy loss.

Listen on Audible!

I received a promo code to read and review this book. I love that Heather read this book on Audible! You can feel not only the comfort in her words, but the sorrow and compassion in her voice. "I'm deeply sorry that you had to pick this book..." Heather offers her heartwarming empathy as she takes us on a journey into acknowledging our loss, making space for grief, finding support, reducing stress, and moving forward.

Deeply validating and comforting

This book truly describes grief in a way that truly feels validating and helpful. Heather Dolson’s words offer comfort and recognition that grief is valid and not on any kind of timeline. This is a book to return to multiple times.

Very Profound with Great Information

I'm halfway through the book, but what I've heard resonates with me, and it's very informative! I love that Heather includes statistics and facts because it helped me see the bigger picture. Her suggestions are spot on, and some of them I've done prior to listening to this book. This is a book that covers grief on all levels, and I've found the information to be very enlightening as I continue to navigate this process. Whole is my first audio book, and I'll be reading more.

Healing read

This book helped me in my healing process dealing with loss. Anyone dealing with loss, this book is insightful, comforting and healing.

helpful for a new grieving parent

pregnancy loss is so isolating. it is often not talked about and people change the topic when it is brought up. this book helps you feel like you have someone who is willing to talk about it and gives good sound advice for healing and coping rather than pretending it did not happen in the early days to months after a loss. written beautifully

Experiencing wholeness again…

After suffering two miscarriages in the early ‘80’s and ‘90’s, this book helped me to feel “Whole” again. The validation of all the feelings I had experienced helped with the grief and sadness. The author’s calm and soothing narration made me feel comfortable with the vulnerability I had felt for years, but repressed. With this book and the new found support of my three beautiful daughters… I feel “Whole” again.
