Summary

Type of loss: Stillbirth More about this story: In this episode, we talk with Kira Tietje as she shares the story of her daughter, Olivia. During what should have been a routine 26-week appointment, Kiraโ€™s world changed forever when no heartbeat could be found. Although Olivia had a healthy anatomy scan and a heartbeat at 22 weeks, it was discovered that she had stopped growing around 19 weeks and 5 days. As a first-time mom with an anterior placenta, Kira struggled with questions and uncertainties that many grieving parents know all too well.
