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 48: Honouring Christina's Motherhood Journey: Welcoming Baby Girl Home After Back to Back Losses
Christina is a trooper! She came on the podcast at just 5 weeks postpartum with her beautiful earth side baby girl. We talk about the difficulties of postpartum life, the challenges of asking for help, the sleep deprivation, the love, all of it. We delve into her motherhood journey that started with back to back losses. Christina experienced a miscarriage at 8 weeks and we talk about how frightening and devastating that was. And then her beautiful boy was born still at 18 weeks. She named him Hope-Song because he represents hope for their family and he is the song in her heart. Christina is incredibly poetic and she hopes to one day release a memoir. I know this memoir will help so many moms feel validated in their motherhood journeys that include devastating loss. We then discuss her pregnancy with her earth side daughter and her birth where she experienced the most beautiful sign from her son in heaven: flickering lights throughout the labour.
Connect with Christina on Instagram here. She posts beautiful, heartfelt poems that capture her motherhood journey.
