Summary
From an expert counselor, a compassionate, comprehensive guide to healing, conception, and pregnancy after loss of a baby.
The challenges of having another pregnancy after loss can be extensive from a physical/medical standpoint alone, but no more so than the emotional and psychological hurdles. Therapist and social worker Joey Miller has counseled women and their families on exactly these matters for nearly 20 years. She brings deep compassion, knowledge, and wisdom of both the emotional and physical roller coasters to help women and their partners tackle all the tough issues:
- How to talk to your doctor
- How to handle the emotional fallout, including dealing with your children, family members, and friends
- Physical assessments and considerations
- How to get the emotional support you need
- Support for partners/spouses
- And more
Other than personal accounts of pregnancy after loss, no other book addresses what to expect when expecting goes horribly wrong...and then beyond. Rebirth provides a road map for that journey. With concrete help navigating the immediate aftermath of tragedy and the difficulties reacclimating to a very fertile world to the very mixed emotions of grieving while trying to conceive, Rebirth addresses the inconceivable with deep empathy and practical wisdom.
Critic reviews
"Joey Miller is a very competent and highly skilled clinician who joins her clients and their stories of loss, suffering, and adversity in empathic and compassionate ways. She connects with clients while building resiliency and hope for their futures. Joey is highly regarded among colleagues and clients and their families who continue to seek her out not only during vulnerable times in their lives but also in their journey of remembering, meaning making, and resiliency." (Denada Hoxha, PhD, psychologist, private practice, and professor, Loyola University, Chicago)
"I have worked with Joey Miller as both an obstetrician working in Chicago and as a patient myself. It was because of Joey that I was able to return to delivering babies in the very hospital I lost my own. I know [this book] will help women who are grieving as well as the health professionals who grieve alongside them but often struggle with how best to support their patients emotionally." (Gwyneth Bryant, MD, obstetrician/gynecologist, Prentice Women's Hospital, Chicago, and clinical instructor of obstetrics and gynecology, Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine)
"Joey Miller is Chicago's go-to source for perinatal loss counseling. Ms. Miller has tremendous depth of experience with patients whose grief originates within a variety of different contexts. My endorsement reflects the clinical experience of years of patients who have benefitted from her care in the most trying of circumstances. I trust her advice, respect her insight and am glad that she wishes to share her knowledge with a broader audience." (Cassing Hammond, MD, director, Section and Fellowship in Family Planning, associate professor of obstetrics and gynecology, Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago)
