“I have women (who might be going through the something similar) ask me how I’m doing after my stillbirth & pregnancy loss and how I’m able to continue pushing forward with my daily life,” shewroteon Instagram. “Everyone handles loss in their own way, but for me I find the key is to stay busy - a healthy distraction always keeps me going.”
Vander, who previously called the loss “thehardest dayof my life”, went on to say, “My advice is get to work, socialize with people, get your body moving (endorphins🤍), and talk to someone.”
Reflecting on her own experiences, Vander continued, “I know the pain of loss won’t heal overnight, but today is a great day to begin or continue furthering the healing process. 🙏🤍👼”
Last month, during the season 5 reunion ofSelling Sunset, Vander told hostTan Francethat “time helps” her move forward.
The real estate pro explained that though she feels “very lucky” to be raising “two beautiful children” she hopes to have another child.
“I have my moments, that’s part of grief, and just take this opportunity to raise voice for stillbirth and pregnancy loss,” she said. “I think part of healing is getting pregnant again. I hope I will, we’ll see.”
