career change post loss?
Any other mamas out there think about or change their careers post loss and why? I am a teacher (special ed) and since suffering the loss of my baby to Trisomy 13 (subsequent TFMR due to extreme alobar holoprosencephaly and my life as at risk). The physical toll of my current job on top of the loss is too much for me. I have always thought about getting my MSW and go into social work- now that I have found all these resources for myself I want to go into perinatal mental health. My therapist said about 2 years post loss I would be ready to start to help others as a peer leader or in other ways. MSW programs take two years. Anyone else?
