A topic not often discussed especially among health care providers is how to help moms with lactation after loss of a baby or a stillbirth. Heidi Kim shares her personal experience in a effort to educate providers and also help moms who've had a loss. Heidi's story may help nurses, midwives, OB's, and other birth workers when they are helping a mother with a loss. It may also be beneficial for friends of mothers with a loss and moms experiencing a loss themselves.
