370 – Stillbirth and PTSD in Zimbabwe and Chiedza Makwara

Erica Michelle

Pregnancy and Infant Loss is not only a United States concern, but it’s worldwide. Today’s guest is from the continent (yes that continent that many think is a country) Africa. She experienced a stillbirth at 32 weeks in her home country of Zimbabwe.

In this episode, Chiedza Makwara shares how pregnancy loss is still a taboo concept in Zimbabwe, how she experienced depression and PTSD after her loss, and how she is using her blog and platform to bring awareness to stillbirth.
