In this raw and redemptive episode, Courtney shares the story of her son Beau, who was stillborn at 39 weeks, and her rainbow baby Daisy, born almost exactly one year later — in the very same hospital room.
She takes us through the shocking moment she heard “there’s no heartbeat,” the sacred experience of birthing and holding her son, and the decision to return to that same space to bring Daisy into the world — surrounded by love, memory, and the presence of her firstborn son.
We talk about:
The unexpected loss of her son Beau at full term
The out-of-body experience of being told there was no heartbeat
Choosing to birth Beau unmedicated, and the power in that decision
Parenting her two younger daughters through grief and sibling loss
Navigating pregnancy after loss and the decision to be induced
Returning to the same birth room — and how that became an act of reclamation
Welcoming Daisy and honouring Beau in every step
Courtney’s story is honest, heartbreaking, and full of the fierce love only a mother could give. It’s a testament to what it means to walk through unimaginable loss — and to find healing in the most unexpected places.
 
🕊️ Beau, this one is for you.

Beschreibung

THE RAINBOW CONNECTION is a podcast for mothers navigating the sacred, often silent path of pregnancy after loss. Each episode holds space for real, vulnerable birth stories—from women who have experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, TFMR, or infant loss. Some are holding their rainbow babies now. Some are pregnant again, and others are still trying to conceive after loss. All are sharing the truth of what it means to keep going after life-shattering grief.
Here, you’ll hear stories that aren’t often told—the ones full of fear, strength, heartbreak, and hope. These are not your typical blissful birth stories. They are stories of angel babies and rainbow babies. Of cesareans and unmedicated births. Of belly births, vaginal births, and everything in between. Most importantly, they are stories of resilience. Of courage. Of a love that endures.
We believe a rainbow isn’t just a baby born after loss—it’s a bridge: a connection between what was lost and what may still come. A symbol of strength, love, and healing.
If you’re pregnant after loss, trying to conceive, or searching for hope after pregnancy loss, this podcast is for you. You’ll walk away feeling less alone, more seen, and deeply validated in your experience.
