Loss Before Life:

Following a brief introduction, this programme is a recording of an interview with a couple discussing their experiences and feelings following a miscarriage. Since the first interview was made, the couple have endured two more miscarriages but now have a baby girl. A follow up interview with the family provides an opportunity to hear on their reflections about the miscarriages and the way it influences their feelings towards their new baby.
