“It was the worst experience I’ve been through but you made it as easy as it could have been to go through,” she said. “You did everything right, which I feel is impossible to do in those situations. Yet, you managed and you still continue to.”
Although the couple—who tied the knot last April—are still in the thick of their loss, Natalie shared why she decided to retell the experience on their podcast.
“It’s going to take a long time to heal from this, but it is raw and we’re feeling it right now,” she said. “That’s why I wanted to do this now because I want to show people and I want to tell the mothers who have felt this same feeling like, ‘Yeah, you’re not alone.’”
“I just also don’t want to forget this baby,” she continued. “I don’t want time to go on and for this baby to have just been like a blip in our lives. I want River to be able to watch this back and see her parents’ love for her sibling that could have been here.”
