Description

As the first book on terminating a pregnancy for medical reasons, this is an essential, supportive and informative guide to breaking this taboo.

Navigate the hardest choice a parent can make

TFMR – Terminating a pregnancy For Medical Reasons – is a common form of baby loss, yet still taboo. This book provides practical advice, expert insight and compassionate support.

Rosanna Brown was 22 weeks pregnant with her son William when she had to terminate for medical reasons. She shares her story, weaving in case studies of other parents and advice from healthcare experts – including for those who carry to term post-diagnosis. The book explores:

  • Diagnosis: 12- and 20-week scans, plus later diagnoses
  • The end of your baby’s life: the medical process and saying goodbye
  • Emotional and physical aftermath: bodily changes, coping with trauma, returning to work, receiving the post-mortem
  • Grieving together: the relationship with your partner, parenting other children, finding community, other pregnancies and moving forwards with happiness and fulfillment.

With advice for parents, medical professionals, friends, family and employers, this is a comprehensive and essential guide to breaking the silence of TFMR – and rediscovering hope.
