During the 19th century, having children was frequently viewed as women's central function and destiny - and yet the pregnant or postnatal body, as well as the birthing room, is almost entirely absent from public discourses and most written histories of the period. Confinement: The Hidden History of Maternal Bodies in Nineteenth-Century Britain corrects this omission by examining stories of pregnancy and motherhood across this period. Drawing on letters, diaries, newspapers, coroner's reports and hospital archives as well as medical advice, literature and art, Jessica Cox charts the maternal experiences of nineteenth-century women, exploring fertility, pregnancy, miscarriage, childbirth, maternal mortality, unwanted pregnancies, infant loss, breastfeeding, and postnatal bodies and minds. From the royal family to the workhouse, this fascinating history reveals what motherhood was truly like for the women of nineteenth-century Britain. 8 Plates, color; 7 Illustrations, color; 5 Illustrations, black and white

Mama, hear this loud and clear: It's not your fault. Miscarriage brings a whirlwind of emotions, but blaming yourself won't heal the pain. You did not cause this loss; let go of guilt for things beyond your control. Embrace self-compassion, forgive yourself for mistakes you didn't make, and allow healing into your heart. Your strength and love define you, not the circumstances. It's time to free yourself from unnecessary blame and nurture the resilience that resides within you.
Guiding you through conception, pregnancy and beyond.
