In this Baby or Bust episode, host Dr. Lora Shahine meets with Dr. Ruth Lathi, an OB/GYN professor and Director of the Multi-specialty Recurrent Pregnancy Loss program at Stanford University, to discuss pregnancy loss and finding support.

Our guest shares her motivation to open a repeat pregnancy loss center, misconceptions about miscarriage, common causes of miscarriage, and bringing compassion to patients.
