Blue Hour Homecoming: Finding Life on the Fringes of Reproduction

by Alle Mudrick

Alle Mudrick had dreamt of pregnant bellies and breathless birth photos since she was a little girl. But when her first daughter died at birth and her next two pregnancies ended in miscarriage, she suddenly found herself on the fringes of reproduction. Blindsided by the painful reality that, despite its rosy representation in our culture, childbearing is fraught with trauma, she forged ahead in pursuit of her dreams—a journey that would challenge everything she thought she knew about life, death, and love. An intimate and moving memoir, Blue Hour Homecoming is one woman’s story of how venturing to the edges of life and back can be wild and beautiful, if only we are brave enough to go there.

You Might Feel a Little Pressure: Finding Wonder After Miscarriage

by Mary Adkins

When Mary Adkins became pregnant with her second kid at thirty-nine, she was thrilled. Instead of a smooth pregnancy, she’d lose three pregnancies over nine months, a journey that would lead her to question more than just her fertility. Having long believed that hard work equals success, she found herself facing an ideological crisis: If sheer effort couldn't produce her greatest want—another baby—where did she go from here? And if she couldn't control this, what else was out of her control? Honest, insightful, and even funny, You Might Feel a Little Pressure explores how an unfulfilled dream can change what we think we know and grief can lead to places brighter than we imagined.
