If you are struggling, need someone to listen, or feeling any emotion that is impacting you, Whitney and I will be on Zoom from 7-8pm EST tonight to listen.

This is a peer-to-peer grief support group specifically for female healthcare providers grieving after pregnancy or infant loss.

We have had providers join us when their loss is recent (a week or two) and others that feel triggered (sometimes due to a difficult case/patient at work) or experiencing another rise in their grief months to years later. There is no defined end to grief.

Please know you are not alone.❤️🙏🏻

Monthly Virtual Grief Support Group for Healthcare Providers grieving after miscarriage, stillbirth, infant loss, or other pregnancy and infant loss.

07/14/2025

If you feel like no one understands what you are feeling or going through as a healthcare provider grieving after pregnancy or infant loss, come to our peer-to-peer support group tonight at 7pm EST.

You can come, speak openly about your experience. We are not here to "fix" anything--simply to hold space for you.

We want you to feel seen and heard during a difficult time in your life.

Grief has many ebbs and flows. Sometimes it is 10 steps forward and 3-5 steps back with a different timeline for each individual.

You can come if you just experienced a loss or it has been years and the grief is resurfacing for any reason.

Please know you are not alone.

You can grab the Zoom link from the Pause to Remember website: https://pausetoremember.org/virtual-support-group

I hope to see you tonight.

As Mother’s Day approaches, know that whatever you are feeling is real.

May you find ways to honor those feelings.

May you feel love and support.

May you find a way to honor the baby (or babies) you long to hold.

Sending you thoughts of warmth and peace on this International Bereaved Mother’s Day.

To the Pause to Remember community,

I want to acknowledge my absence and let you know how deeply each of you matter to me. Thank you to those of you who have reached out with kind words and support—it has truly meant so much. 🙏

In this season of personal loss, I’m honoring my own advice: leaning into rest, practicing self-care, and spending time in nature with close friends. I’m continuing to step back just a little longer so I can return grounded and ready to hold space for you in the way you deserve.

With gratitude and care,
~Amy Pelkey
