A blessing. A gift. A miracle. Having a child is often described as the most fulfilling experiences one can have. But when pregnancies don’t go according to hopes, dreams, and plans, all that joy bestowed upon the expectant parents seems to evaporate. No one wants to talk about the complications during the pregnancy itself, the soul-wrenching loss of miscarriage, or the much-needed courage to try again after a setback or profound loss. Women and their partners often find themselves alone, trying to cope with the rush of emotions and the lack of support and information. In The Empty Crib: My Personal Experiences of Miscarriage and Baby Loss, the author—who now has two beautiful and healthy children—shares her personal experiences and painful journey to becoming a parent. She touches on everything: the lies expectant parents are fed, the silent suffering, the rollercoaster ride of emotions that leave your irrevocably changed, as well as the profound sense of love you feel when you meet your child for the first time. In The Empty Crib, Charlene has reopened her most painful and personal experiences of her life and relived them in detail. She hopes her story will offer others knowledge, comfort, and empathy.
Reassurance for parents who struggle with anger, guilt, and despair after a miscarriage, stillbirth, infant death.
This classic psychological case study focuses on one talkative child's emerging ability to use language, her capacity for understanding, for imagining, and for making inferences and solving problems. In wide-ranging essays, scholars offer multifaceted linguistic and psychological analyses of two-year-old Emily's bedtime conversations with her parents and pre-sleep monologues, taped over a fifteen-month period. In a foreword written for this new edition, Emily, now an adult, reflects on the experience of having been a research subject without knowing it.
