Jacqueline chats with Alaina as she shares her story to motherhood including stillbirth due to a hypercoiled umbilical cord, navigating pregnancy after loss, and healing through helping others.
Alaina and her family started the Loving Leo Joseph Foundation, which works to raise money to purchase Cuddle Cots to donate to hospitals in need. A Cuddle Cot is a machine that gives grieving parents the gift of time with their child while in the hospital, to take pictures and cherish every memory of the baby they lost.
Visit the website here to support this wonderful cause in honor of Alaina's son, Leo. You can also find the foundation here on Facebook.
