| Summary: | "I HAD A MISCARRIAGE is Dr. Jessica Zucker's account of her miscarriage that occurred sixteen weeks into her pregnancy, and her journey of recovery following it. Drawing from her psychological expertise and her work as the creator of the viral #IHadaMiscarriage campaign, this book uses Zucker's and other women's experiences to explore grief, healing, and the power of speaking one's truth"-- Sixteen weeks into her pregnancy, Zucker miscarried at home, alone. Her career no longer theoretical, she embarked on a mission to upend the strident trifecta of silence, shame, and stigma that surrounds reproductive loss. The result is her striking memoir meets manifesto, an urgent reminder of the power of speaking openly and unapologetically about the complexities of our lives. -- adapted from back cover |
