Brittany Bronson’s Bio
Hello! I my name is Brittany and I am 31 years old. I live in Los Angeles but originally from Michigan. I’m a social worker and working on becoming a licensed clinical social worker. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and their families. Especially children in foster care. I’ve been married for 3.5 years and have a 6 month old son. I’m passionate about giving back and helping others, especially when it comes to pregnancy loss and infertility.
The journey to my rainbow baby has been a difficult one. I experienced a total of 3 miscarriages. 2 were chemical pregnancies the last one was termed blighted ovum which is when only the sac is present but no baby is growing in the womb. From there, I was sent to Reproductive Endocrinologist where my husband and I were out through all kinds of test to see what was causing my miscarriages. After testing I was diagnosed with unexplained infertility and was put on a medication regiment to try to improve our chances of conceiving a healthy pregnancy. My husband and I tried 2 cycles of this medication regiment but I was unable to get pregnant. After being worn down from my miscarriages and the treatments my husband and I decided to take a break from trying to conceive and focus on other things. Lo and behold a month later, we were pregnant with our son, Carter. Pregnancy after loss was extremely difficult for us but we made it through with a healthy pregnancy and healthy rainbow baby boy!
