196. Not the After, the During: Telling the Truth From Inside Pregnancy After Loss with Sarah Guigue
In this two-part conversation, we return to Sarah Guigue’s fertility journey with honesty, vulnerability, and deep intention.
When we first recorded in November 2025, Sarah was still pregnant. She made the brave choice to speak in the middle of it, not after the ending was known, because she wanted to capture the raw intensity of pregnancy after loss. The fear. The hope. The constant calculations. The way joy and terror lived side by side.
Sarah shares how private she wanted to be during that pregnancy. How she almost didn’t tell her immediate family. How she entered what she calls her “nesting” period, pulling inward, limiting public appearances, and protecting herself from questions and commentary that felt too heavy to carry. Not because she wasn’t grateful, but because she was surviving.
She speaks powerfully about the strength it took to try again. About her deep belief that G-d co-creates life with us, and that we are meant to be vessels, even when the risk feels unbearable. That faith didn’t erase fear, but it gave her the courage to move forward anyway.
In the second half of this episode, recorded after the birth of her baby, Sarah reflects on how her emotions have shifted. What stayed with her. What surprised her. And how pregnancy after loss doesn’t simply end at delivery, even when the outcome is joyful.
This episode is for anyone who has lived in the in-between. Anyone who protected their heart by staying quiet. Anyone who kept going not because they were fearless, but because something deeper carried them forward.
