In this deeply moving episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, we sit down with Ellie, a bereaved mother who courageously shares her experience of stillbirth at 38 weeks and her ongoing journey through grief, advocacy, and healing.
Ellie tells the story of her daughter Matilda (Tilly), who was tragically stillborn following a failed ECV (external cephalic version). She opens up about navigating a healthy pregnancy turned heartbreak, challenging the healthcare system, and pushing for transparency and answers through bereavement reviews and hospital investigations.
