Opening the topic to a thoughtful and informed discussion, Linda Layne takes a historical look at pregnancy loss in America, reproductive technologies and the cultural responses surrounding miscarriage. Examining both support groups and the rituals they create to help couples through loss, her analysis offers valuable insight on how material culture contributes to conceptions of personhood. A fascinating examination, Motherhood Lost is also a provocative challenge to feminists and other activists to increase awareness and provide necessary support for this often hidden but critically important topic.

Filled with accessible information, frequently asked questions and answers, and methods for coping with grief, the book empowers women undergoing pregnancy loss to take control over their experience. It is an earnest conversation between doctor and reader that provides compassion and guidance, as well as hope for a woman’s future pregnancy efforts. “The Miscarriage Guide lays out the paths of all kinds of miscarriages, helping women understand what’s happening and how they can move forward toward healing.” -- Dr. Beri Ridgeway, Chief of Staff, Former Chair, Department of OB/GYN and the Women’s Health Institute, Cleveland Clinic “A delicate and expert mix of medical knowledge, emotional intelligence, and individual clinical guidance.” --Dr. Jeffrey Ecker, Chief, Department of OB/GYN Massachusetts General Hospital Professor, Harvard Medical School "By empowering women to control their experience, Dr. Kate creates a space for understanding, healing, and most importantly hope.” --Dr. Amy Murtha, Professor and Chair, Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology & Reproductive Sciences, University of California San Francisco “This book answers all of the questions my own patients ask me in the office, as well as the ones they are afraid to ask.

Download or read book The Myth of the Perfect Pregnancy written by Lara Freidenfelds and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-12-02 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a couple plans for a child today, every moment seems precious and unique. Home pregnancy tests promise good news just days after conception, and prospective parents can track the progress of their pregnancy day by day with apps that deliver a stream of embryonic portraits. On-line due date calculators trigger a direct-marketing barrage of baby-name lists and diaper coupons. Ultrasounds as early as eight weeks offer a first photo for the baby book. Yet, all too often, even the best-strategized childbearing plans go awry. About twenty percent of confirmed pregnancies miscarry, mostly in the first months of gestation. Statistically, early pregnancy losses are a normal part of childbearing for healthy women. Drawing on sources ranging from advice books and corporate marketing plans to diary entries and blog posts, Lara Freidenfelds offers a deep perspective on how this common and natural phenomenon has been experienced. As she shows, historically, miscarriages were generally taken in stride so long as a woman eventually had the children she desired. This has changed in recent decades, and an early pregnancy loss is often heartbreaking and can be as devastating to couples as losing a child. Freidenfelds traces how innovations in scientific medicine, consumer culture, cultural attitudes toward women and families, and fundamental convictions about human agency have reshaped the childbearing landscape. While the benefits of an increased emphasis on parental affection, careful pregnancy planning, attentive medical care, and specialized baby gear are real, they have also created unrealistic and potentially damaging expectations about a couple's ability to control reproduction and achieve perfect experiences. The Myth of the Perfect Pregnancy provides a reassuring perspective on early pregnancy loss and suggests ways for miscarriage to more effectively be acknowledged by women, their families, their healthcare providers, and the maternity care industry.
