Finding Hope After Loss

In Episode 11, we hear from Jess Partlow, a teacher, a crafter, a wife and mom of three as she shares her story of the joys of becoming a mom only to be devastated by miscarriages. Not just one, or two, but three miscarriages over the course of a few years. For Jess and Adam, becoming parents started off with two easy pregnancy journeys with their first two boys. However, after that, for some unknown reason, complications arose and having their third baby came after two sorrowful miscarriages. Excited to bring their vision of a big family to fruition, they try for a fourth with hopeful anticipation only to be broken by a third miscarriage in September of 2019.
