“This is a tricky one that took me awhile to share – on one hand I am overjoyed at our impending arrival and on the other hand thinking of the 3 little lives that didn’t make it this far.”

Tahyna added, “On this day in particular – Pregnancy and Infant Loss Day – I think of all those little ones and the women and families who had to endure the tragedy of Miscarriage,’ she penned. 

“I began documenting my experience on film in an effort to shatter the shame and stigma associated with miscarriage and loss. Thank you to those who have shared their experience with me so far – I always wish to hear more.”
