“Miller will always be so special to me because of his arrival at the time of my miscarriage.” (Paraphrased) I think that is one of the most beautiful sentiments I have ever heard. What a special perspective God gave you in which to see Miller after your loss. My daughter’s friend lost her baby at the same time my daughter was pregnant. Such a difficult time. I have lost five babies-four between my first two. I felt the presence of the Lord because my hubby and I were never down at the same time. The support was beautiful. I pray God continues to heal your body and your heart as you grieve and mend. 🙏🏾♥️

Jayna is speaking some serious TRUTH about the purpose of sex and marriage. So beautiful. Natural Family Planning takes time to learn but it 100% works and you learn so much about your body. Thank you for sharing.

Yes! It teaches you to be aware of and learn your body and the changes that happen within your cycle. When you chart your temperature along with other signs, you see the changes on a graph. It gives you a “picture” of where you are at in your cycle. Your husband can be apart of it by giving you the thermometer in the morning and writing or entering it on your chart. This makes it so that both partners responsible and in the know of where you are at in your fertility.

I agree Jayna is speaking truth, I practice Natural Family Planning, and I have to say that we need to be careful when we say it works 100%, you have to learn it very well for it to work 100% and many times you learn as you go and from the unplanned pregnancies. For example, I have 2 friends who thought they knew it and both got pregnant from early ovulation, they ended their cycle and thought it would be safe that first day, then ovulated 6 days later, had a less then 10% chance and conceived. They were trying not to get pregnant. Of course they welcomed their babies and all but they were already struggling with the children they had and weren't wanting to get pregnant. Its a journey to trust God even with our fertility.

Your cousin is a delight to listen to! She’s smart, honest, kind and unapologetic. Thank you for starting this series, it brings joy to my life! We struggled with infertility for about 10 years and had our children through IVF. I was pregnant 12 times and was blessed with 3 children, so most of our pregnancies ended in loss. Now I work providing support to those who experience loss and also provide information on fertility treatments since for many Christians as myself reputable scientific information is so essential to make huge life decisions on how to build a family. In a Q&A you answered questions about IVF and I love how kind your answers were, and I’d like to know more about the Mennonite community and their openness to fertility treatments. Recently, my view on surrogacy changed when I met a patient who lost her uterus giving birth to her first child and had more embryos frozen for future siblings to her baby. Her younger sister carried two of her babies to term and now she’s overjoyed with three beautiful, healthy children thanks to modern medicine and the ultimate love gift from her unmarried sister to carry her babies since she couldn’t.

I had 3 before I experienced my first miscarriage and I can honestly say I didn't really understand why it was so sad to loose a baby only 11 weeks along until it happened to me. It made me realize that the moment we find out we are carrying a new little one we automatically have made room in our hearts for them and unconsciously have already altered the size of our family in our minds. I think this is why it hurts even without ever meeting them.

I am 73 years old and suffered thru 2 tubal pregnancies, leaving me unable to have a child. However, I had a fullfilling career, and it didn't seem to bother my husband to be childless, so that was that. We discussed adoption but my husband was very against it so I let it go. Now I have close nieces and nephews so I am blessed that way, and their children are like grandchildren to us.

Oh the goodness, I've been thinking about getting off of my hormonal birth control pill I've been on since a teenager after starting to listen to the Freely Rooted podcast recently. I started at episode 1 so they are definitely not current to current affairs right now. I had a discussion with my husband this afternoon about our agreement in my not taking the pill anymore based on what I'd been learning about the real nature of taking it. AND THEN for this to be your topic and for the information to all line up is so validating ! I didn't even know there was practically a movement going on right now. THANK YOU for bringing up such important, vital and timely topics!

Thank you for being so open when talking about birth control. It can be a very taboo subject in many communities, but you approached the topic in a very honest and frank way. I take birth control and have taken it for many years due to PCOS and the hormonal issues associated with it. I was told hormonal birth control actually increases fertility and can cause the conception of multiples when stopped immediately before trying to conceive. In my case, that was very true. I have 5 sons, 4 of them are quadruplets that were conceived following a cycle of birth control and ovulation stimulating medications with an IUI. I also experienced an empty sac pregnancy that needed to be addressed with medications to allow my body to expel the sac since it didn't happen naturally. Thank you so much for opening up this topic! Honest, to the point talk is so important.

Where I go to church people just don’t care, family don’t care. They have the mindset of it’s all about them. No sympathy for you unless you’re in their clique. And I’m not in any of those. You girls are so blessed to have the church family that you have, and each other. God bless you both. I love watching your videos….I think you are an amazing young woman.

Jayna you have so much insight about these topics. I wish that miscarriage wasn’t something you’ve had to go through but please know that your story is helping others. You said something about grieving and if it takes 2 days or two years or however long let it happen. (I watched it last night while nursing and I’m paraphrasing) but that stood out to me. You seem so real in the words you share. I love that you’re not a “KZfaqr” because you don’t seem to say only what will please viewers. You share your own beliefs and it’s refreshing.

Thank you so much for sharing about your miscarriages Jayna. I just had my 12 weeks appointment yesterday and there was no heartbeat and the ultrasound confirmed. This is my 3rd loss out of 4 pregnancies, the first two losses were at 5 and 6 weeks. With my first I felt like I was overreacting because of how sad I was. And people's comments were sometimes very unhelpful. You truly just have to grieve how you need to grieve and not let someone else tell you how. Unfortunately miscarriage is so common, yet most people still don't know how to sympathize, so I appreciate you sharing your thoughts on that. Every time I think about Jesus holding my babies for me I cry, no matter how long it's been.

Beautiful conversation. We use natural family planning. Currently pregnant with #7, due in July. We lost a baby March 1, 2013. The Lord was gracious to us in that time, and surrounded us with love. Every year I think about what our angel would look like, sound like. We all grieve differently and that's OK. Jayna you are right, having gone through it, we can bless those that do end up going through it.

Between my first and second child I had one and I was very similar to you in my reaction. 25 years later I still thank the Lord for His soveirgn Hand in the matter BUT also for His faithfulness in carrying me through the grieving process afterwards. I look forward to eternity w/ that baby!

I'm past the age but listening to you talk about loss brought memories of my loss. I remember wondering why I was feeling a certain way and my doctor reminded me I was pregnant so it is normal to feel off. My husband and I talk about our loss from time to time we both believe it would have been another girl. We both know where this baby is and will see her again. I think you both sharing is important for many young ladies to perhaps ask questions they never thought of. I was also young when I married 20 21 my husband was 23. We have both changed and have grown. What a ride we have been on. I to say it has been 33 years and placing God in the center of our marriage has key. Blessings to you both.

I love this new series you are doing. I had 4 miscarriages before i got pregnant with my now 17 yr old son. I was told it was because i was on bc. Bc messed my body up so bad that even my doctor said to stop taking it. I also have a 15 yr old son born 2 yrs after my first. Then while i was pregnant with my second my first born was diagnosed with cancer. Hubby and i decide we couldnt handle anything more and he got a vasectomy. Im grateful for my 2 wonderful blessings.

Thank you for making this and sharing your stories! I think it's important to educate women about all the other options to family planning other than birth control, which is the only option most women know about, I think. I've been using the NFP Marquette method and I truly believe it works! I feel so much more in tune with my body and comfortable knowing I'm going about planning naturally and using the "built-in" calendar that God gave me!

Yup. Also gone through a miscarriage. It was so hard. I recognize it all. I left the hospital when I had found out it wasn't going to be a baby. I was alone and felt like I was going to melt down to a pile od water on the ground like I was in a movie. Then 2 years of sorrow, after that it became easier. I would say; let it all out and cry how much you need too to start felling better. I also talked a lot about it.

Thank you for such an open discussion of birth control. I'm not Mennonite but I do believe that human life begins at conception.

That was a very good and informative video for young people. I myself had a miscarriage at three months and my two daughters also had the same. It is a very difficult time for anyone and feel lucky that we were all blessed with children after the miscarriage. I have three lovely grandchildren who were wanted very much. I always believed that each birth and death was a gift from God and meant to be or end as he’s so fit. I wish all who have gone through this or are Now experiencing it to find peace

Really enjoying this. Went through a miscarriage in 2020. I am also one who talking about it brings healing. God has blessed us with another baby this past January.

Interesting to hear the mennonite perspective on this. In Catholicism we don't use artificial contraception, just natural family planning.

Yes, as a Catholic myself, I was very surprised to hear this about Mennonites.

Remember she's speaking for a group of Mennonites, not sure how many believe in contraception/hormonal birth control. I'm Mennonite and never would use it 😉

This is something we as women need to be talking about across the board. No matter our background, color of our skin, religion, etc. Our physical and mental health should be of the utmost importance to us before everything else. We need to be talking to our daughters and granddaughter about this, too.

My first pregnancy ending in a miscarriage at 7 weeks and that was very traumatic for me. We weren’t trying but after that happened, I NEEDED a baby to help with the pain. And exactly a year later, the very same day we lost our first baby, our rainbow baby boy was born. He’s helped us heal so much🤍
