How Do I Recover After a Miscarriage? with Allison Schaaf from Miscarriage Hope Desk

“We all need to start raising conscious children so they’re not dealing with these fertility issues we’re dealing with.”

Topics Discussed:

• How sperm health can affect embryo quality and cause a miscarriage.
• Preparing for pregnancy physically and emotionally after a miscarriage.  
• Change your mindset and be intentional about your fertility. 
• The value of practising Emotional Freedom Tapping (EFT).

Do you feel drained of all your energy after suffering a miscarriage? The emotional and physical exhaustion you feel now is normal, and it is important you allow your body to heal and get back to normal before you start trying for another pregnancy. 

“Every step of your journey is important, and when you feel like you’re failing, it’s not a failure, it’s just another chapter in your journey.”

In this episode of the Finding Fertility podcast, we speak with Allison Schaaf, founder of Miscarriage Hope Desk, a safe space for women struggling with recurring pregnancy loss. She started this space as a friendly resource she wishes she had when she struggled with infertility and miscarriages. 

“Every step of your journey is important, and when you feel like you’re failing, it’s not a failure, it’s just another chapter in your journey.”
