S4, E6 - NFM @notafictionalmum - adoption after infertility and miscarriage - a podcast by Laura and Bex
from 2022-02-06T13:00
We loved chatting to 'Notta' and feel that we really put the world to rights with this one. Hold tight for passionate rants, poetry anthology discussions and tears all round. Here is what she had to say...
Hi I'm notafictionalmum, that's right an actual real mum. I just happen to have achieved this through the power of adoption. A route to parenthood you won't see represented nearly equally enough. You won't see it in Hollywood, unless it's a plot line, you won't see us represented in stores, the mere fact I've created the name notafictionalmum should indicate how at times I've felt perceived by society. I'm here to fight the good fight. The 'inclusion revolution' - Founding the UK's first adoption and infertility clothing brand, blogging all things adoption and infertility and campaigning for basic, fundamental rights on for my community.
NFM's current petition to parliament campaigning for equal statutory financial support for self-employed adoptive parents.

It's time to break the silence and open up the dialogue around the topics of miscarriage and pregnancy loss. No more shame, no more taboo, lets ditch it for our children; the ones that will come, the ones that are and the ones that never came to be.
