Heartbroken. We sadly said goodbye to Charley ‘Chiefy’ Toes last Friday. It was unexpected & one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. Ellie, her sister, keeps looking for her, as do I. There is such an emptiness in my arms & I miss her so very much.

I'm leaving Twitter. We all know why. I am on Bluesky at andyharrod.bsky.social. I may set up an (In)visible Childlessness account there, in the meantime you can find me via my personal account.

The pain is universal. What may help is if men have places in which to share their feelings or simply know they are safe in their silence without exclusion or judgement. There are resources on our website and show notes. linktr.ee/fullstopcic

Today marks the first day of #BabyLossAwarenessWeek.
This is the 21st Baby Loss Awareness Week in the UK, and whilst it has grown over time, the aims of the week remain the same.
This week we join together to remember our babies, raise awareness, and drive change 💖💙
🧵 It was great to finally meet @mjhughes67 last week. An evening of nourishing chat and laughs.
Personally, he has provided me with support and inspiration as I have grappled with being childless-not-by-choice, which I am grateful for.
It also great that together we offer The Childless Men's Community on Facebook and it was good talking about how it is growing and future thoughts for the childless community.
Ps. Lovely to meet Vickie too and Rachel enjoyed meeting you both too.
Such a pity we live on opposite sides of the world.
Pps. Thanks for the gifts. I'm really not sure how we haven't scoffed the Tim Tam's!
