According to author Hope Edelman, when new mothers are grieving their own mothers, the physical and psychological stress can be overwhelming: You're suddenly in the role of the person you need most—who's no longer there. If you become a mother after your own mother dies, you're mourning what might have been. On this episode, we talk with Danielle Cunningham and co-host Bonnie Blaylock, who both lost their mothers before they had children of their own, and how that changed the way they parent.
