WGSS 393M
Everything to Expect While You're Expecting: Confronting Pregnancy Loss

Pregnancy losses are generally resigned to silence. They are not publicly discussed and do not constitute a standard part of pregnancy education. This course examines pregnancy loss as part of the spectrum of human reproductive experiences. Grounded in an approach informed by reproductive justice, this course draws upon interdisciplinary scholarship to historicize experiences and understandings of pregnancy losses; interrogate how (and why) federal and state laws criminalize pregnancy losses; and analyze how pregnancy loss experiences vary based on race, class, gender, and sexuality.
