The purpose of this descriptive phenomenological investigation was to explore what it is like to miscarry from the perspective of lesbian birth and social mothers. The theoretical framework and assumptions of Husserlian phenomenology provided the foundation for guiding this inquiry. Twenty women (10 couples) who self-identified as lesbian, were in a committed couple relationship, miscarried as a birth or social mother within the past 2 years, and were willing to share their experience of early unexpected pregnancy loss participated in the investigation.

520 $a The purpose of this descriptive phenomenological investigation was to explore what it is like to miscarry from the perspective of lesbian birth and social mothers. The theoretical framework and assumptions of Husserlian phenomenology provided the foundation for guiding this inquiry. Twenty women (10 couples) who self-identified as lesbian, were in a committed couple relationship, miscarried as a birth or social mother within the past 2 years, and were willing to share their experience of early unexpected pregnancy loss participated in the investigation.
520 $a The couples' narratives revealed that the experience of miscarriage couldn't be understood without understanding what it is like to become pregnant for lesbians. The miscarriage experience involved getting through five inevitable, universal stages: (1) Dealing with the threat of pregnancy loss; (2) Surviving the miscarriage; (3) Letting the world know; (4) Clarifying what matters most; and (5) Moving on. As lesbian birth and social mothers go through these stages, they ascribe unique meanings to the occurrences within the context of their lives and maternal identities. The lesbian birth and social mothers' responses to miscarriage are closer, related to their personal values and beliefs about pregnancy and early unexpected pregnancy loss.
520 $a Conclusion. Findings of this investigation offer new information about lesbian birth and social mothers' experiences and responses to miscarriage both as individuals and as couples and may serve as a framework for anticipating a range of unique responses birth and social mothers have to miscarrying in clinical practice and provides a foundation for designing therapeutic interventions in which lesbian mothers will feet safe, understood and well supported.
