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.

We talk all things related to pregnancy after loss. Emmy is currently in her third trimester with her baby boy after the full-term stillbirth of her sweet daughter, Layla, in 2022.
We discuss:
-Layla's stillbirth

-re-setting up a nursery that connects both our baby in heaven and the one on the way
-answering the inevitable questions, like "how many kids do you have?" and how our answers have evolved over time based on our journey and timelines
-what healing looks like for Emmy
