The Still Hopeful Podcast
Welcome to The Still Hopeful Podcast, where we talk about the twists and turns of pregnancy after loss and the highs and lows of life postpartum. I’m Serena, a mom who knows this journey firsthand. My first baby, my sweet Christopher, was stillborn at full term, and now I hold my precious baby girl, Veronica, in my arms. Christopher’s loss, the uncertainty of pregnancy afterward, and the joy of welcoming Veronica home are all parts of my story.
I created this podcast to share my experience and connect with others who understand. Here, we’ll talk openly about grief, the challenges of pregnancy after loss, and the ups and downs of parenting all of our babies. Whether you’re navigating a new pregnancy after experiencing pregnancy loss, or parenting after loss, you’re not alone. Let’s walk this road together with honesty, hope, and healing.

Episode 45: Formula, Pumping, and Breastfeeding Tips
Feeding a baby can feel like such a big, emotional part of motherhood, and honestly, it’s not always as simple as we expect. Adding in our history of loss, there are even more layers to feeding our babies. Whether it’s formula, pumping, breastfeeding, or some mix of everything, each path comes with its own set of challenges and tender moments.
In this episode, I’m sharing a mix of practical tips and some of my own stories from feeding my rainbow baby, along with the reminders I wish I had heard in those early days. Because the truth is, there’s no one “right” way to feed your baby. What matters most is finding what works for you, and leaning into the love and connection that happens in those quiet feeding moments.
If you’ve ever felt the pressure to get it “just right”, this episode is for you.
