To subscribe: Stories of women who have survived a miscarriage
We continue to tell about decent accounts in social networks through which you can view the whole world.
Instagram ihadamiscarriage with the same hashtag was launched by LA psychologist Jessica Zucker. Zucker specializes in issues related to female reproductive health and pregnancy. The account was conceived almost like a diary: the woman herself experienced a miscarriage and tried to comprehend this difficult event with the help of a social network. A little later, she suggested that others confronted with a frozen pregnancy and miscarriages openly or anonymously speak on this page. Today, there are dozens of stories collected - an amazing level of publicity for a topic that is customary to keep silent about. Thoughts, attitudes to the situation and ways of expressing feelings are not limited by anything, and therefore it is easy to meet both open letters to your own body, and frank confessions in very intimate experiences, and stories with a happy ending.
“A large number of studies show that after pregnancy stops women experience shame and guilt. I needed to comprehend this,” explains the doctor. Statistical data from different countries say that 15 to 30% of all pregnancies end in miscarriage, and it is simply impossible to call this phenomenon rare. However, there is still a lack of discussion and public awareness outside the medical community. With the campaign scale up, Zucker also had attributes: you can find badges and supporting postcards in the online store, as well as T-shirts that say “Rainbow mama” and “Rainbow babe” (the name given to children born after a sad event). To its main goal - to make a lot of women feel that they are not alone in their misfortune - this instagram is moving every day with lightning speed.
