Tens of thousands of women and families every year lose a baby to miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant death. The statistics are sobering - between 10 percent and 20 percent of pregnancies end in miscarriage, 1 percent in stillbirth, and nearly 23,000 babies die before their first birthday - but statistics alone miss the depth of the hurt. Each loss is personal and devastating.

Laila Tarraf was the chief people officer for Peet’s Coffee and Tea, the iconic Berkeley coffee roaster, but she had a secret: She was failing in the most important relationships in her life. Yes, she was a strong and effective business leader, the successful daughter of immigrants, and the mother of a toddler, but she was disconnected from her own feelings and had little patience for those of others. All that changed, however, when three of the people most important to her - her husband, father, and mother - died in quick succession.

Natalie Queiroz was eight months pregnant when she was stabbed by her partner in the most vicious attack imaginable. In the space of nine minutes, and in broad daylight, Natalie was stabbed 24 times with a carving knife. She suffered horrific wounds to her lungs, liver, stomach and uterus, whilst the knife missed her baby by a margin of two millimetres, before the arteries in her wrists were methodically severed by the attacker she finally realised was her partner. After heroic intervention by passers-by and police, the attack was brought to an end, but her ordeal was not over.

Publisher's Summary
Dear Listener,
When I found myself experiencing a motherhood that I never expected, one that I was terrified of living, I didn't know how I would carry on being 'normal'. I didn't know how much I would long for people to say my son Teddy's name, to not treat him like he didn't exist. Maybe you're in this boat too, or maybe you want to support someone who is? Whatever your reason, I hope our story goes a little way to help.
Love, Elle
What do you do when the unthinkable happens? Elle Wright had an admittedly easy pregnancy - her scans went well, she and her baby were healthy throughout, and in May 2016, she and her husband welcomed their son, Teddy, into the world. Just a few hours after giving birth, they woke to find a nurse holding a cold and unresponsive Teddy, who had stopped breathing during the night. The happiest day of Elle's life had turned into every parent's worst nightmare, and she had to let her beautiful baby boy go. Three days after delivering him into the world, Elle sat with Teddy in her arms as he took his last breaths, and tucked him in for the final time. Ask Me His Name is a moving account of Elle's pregnancy, Teddy's life, and what happens when a mother leaves a hospital with empty arms. In the UK, one in four pregnancies ends in premature death, but conversations about the heartbreakingly frequent issue of baby loss are few and far between. In this honest, beautifully written and hopeful exploration of a different kind of mothering, Elle explores how she navigated a parenthood that no one had prepared her for.

When I downloaded this book I was so scared to read the truth of that she was going to say. I lost my son 4 months ago and had no clue what I was getting into, since finally cracking the cover of the book I have read it three times. Elle is my cheerleader from across the sea. Never did I think a book could be so healing but with every page there was just a little bit more help. Thank you Elle, for speaking up and speaking out

As a student Midwife I always try to read books relating to birth and a peer recommended this book to me, I knew it would be difficult to listen to and process but I gave it a go anyways. The story was a complete eye opener to me and I felt completely emerged into every chapter. I felt that the story was told from such a unique position and I am ever grateful that the author was able to share with us and help others going through a similar experience.

Amazing
Insightful, amazing, emotional and filled me with hope and love. As friend to a mother who lost her child at 10 days old, this book is what we got her for her first Mother’s Day. After her reading and loving it she said it would be beneficial for us, as her friends to read, so I downloaded the audio book.
It showed me an insight into what my friend may feel but can’t say, it’s helped me with how to communicate openly with her and it’s given me hope for her, our future.
Great read, just make sure you have the tissues at the ready. Being the friend of the mother, teddy’s aunties paragraph touched me a lot. I think these where a great addition to the book and made it for mother’s and the supporters alike.
It brought a whole new level of emotion when I also realise Elle narrated the book herself. Well done on an amazing book/ audiobook.

What an amazing tribute to Elle’s precious little boy Teddy. This books gives those who haven’t been through the traumatic experience of the loss of a child an insight into how it must feel as parent and has taught me how to communicate and support others. But also this book would provide huge support for those who have lost a child. Hearing Elle narrate the book adds extra emotion, so grateful to her for sharing her experiences. Would highly recommend Ask Me His Name.

The most beautiful book.
How on earth Elle read this I’ll never know.
Be prepared to not be able to put this down after starting it. Without a doubt the most heart breaking, traumatic book I’ve ever read. But I felt it was important to read. I’ve followed Elle’s story for the last few years after hearing her interview on Loose Women with Marina Fogle during baby loss awareness month. How do you say the right thing? How do you help? If you’ve wondered these questions, you have to read this book. Elle explains so brilliantly what to say in these situations & it’s so helpful to know what not to say. I think one’s like Elle & Nico are the bravest people, how they cope I do not know.

there is no way to describe this book other than incredibly touching. Sadly a close friend of mine's baby was born sleeping at 8 months. this book has not only helped her on her own journey to recovery, but helped me so much with being there for her, with how to communicate with her and how to show how truly sorry and hurt we all are for her.

When her six-year-old daughter found her collapsed on the kitchen floor, Rachel had no idea how much her life was about to change. A brain scan revealed a dark shadowy mass, a huge abnormal growth of tissue that, whilst benign, was still growing and would surely kill her. It was too big to operate on. It needed to be "managed", and Rachel had, at best, two years to live. Refusing to accept the bleak prognosis, Rachel was determined to stay alive.

Story
When her six-year-old daughter found her collapsed on the kitchen floor, Rachel had no idea how much her life was about to change. A brain scan revealed a dark shadowy mass, a huge abnormal growth of tissue that, whilst benign, was still growing and would surely kill her. It was too big to operate on. It needed to be "managed", and Rachel had, at best, two years to live. Refusing to accept the bleak prognosis, Rachel was determined to stay alive.

Story
Laila Tarraf was the chief people officer for Peet’s Coffee and Tea, the iconic Berkeley coffee roaster, but she had a secret: She was failing in the most important relationships in her life. Yes, she was a strong and effective business leader, the successful daughter of immigrants, and the mother of a toddler, but she was disconnected from her own feelings and had little patience for those of others. All that changed, however, when three of the people most important to her - her husband, father, and mother - died in quick succession.
