Content warning: The following story contains text descriptions of pregnancy loss.
We live in a world that doesn't believe women when we say we're experiencing pain - whether it's chronic physical pain or psychological distress. The patriarchal powers that be have always dismissed us, so much so that it has seeped into our healthcare systems. The issue goes way beyond not being believed: the pain gap has deadly consequences, and America is contending with a maternal healthcare crisis worse than in any other developed country.
And while our culture is finally acknowledging this reality, the stigma around these issues is still very real - perhaps most glaringly when it comes to pregnancy loss. Our culture still does not openly discuss the grief and severe psychological impacts miscarriages and stillbirths can have on women. In writer and director Lori Evans Taylor's new supernatural thriller, "Bed Rest," released on Tubi on Dec.
