A Georgia woman who has lost two children to miscarriages has called for doctors' offices to have separate waiting areas for expecting patients and patients experiencing pregnancy loss.
India Batson, 29, made the request in a March 15 TikTok that has since gone viral, earning more than 2.6million views.
In it, the Atlanta resident makes her case - opening up about a recent doctor's visit after one of her miscarriages.
Tearing up, she recalled being overrun with emotion - after being brought back to the same place where days earlier she learned her baby no longer had a heartbeat.
Undeterred, she told her nearly 50,000 followers that she and her husband are ready to try to have another baby following their most recent ordeal.

She told onlookers last week: 'I would like to make a recommendation to OBGYN offices to have a different waiting area if you are there for a miscarriage, an ectopic pregnancy, a ruptured ectopic pregnancy.
'If you're there for a loss,' she went on, 'I'd like for UltraXtend wifi kaufen there to be a separate waiting room than the regular waiting room.
'Because sitting in that waiting room, next to tons of pregnant women, while you wait to go back just to get bloodwork to see if their HCG is back to zero, sucks.
'Like it absolutely sucks.'
The assertion, she said, came immediately after a doctor's appointment where she was forced to undergo what she had just described.
'There's no other way to phrase it,' she said, choking back tears as she thought back to a few hours earlier.
'I didn't expect it to get me so emotional - to be back in the place to get my bloodwork where I found there was no longer a heartbeat.
'I wasn't expecting to have this rush of emotions come back in the room,' she went on - recalling her thinking at the time.

She made the request so that people like her are not surrounded by visibly pregnant women happy about their ultrasound photos. A still from her most pregnancy is seen here

Despite the losses, she said that she and her spouse are ready to try for another baby in May, and wants doctors to heed her suggestion
'Like, "Oh - this is where I found out there's, like, no longer a heartbeat."
'Like, I don't know how to explain it,' she went on. 'It just, kind of like, brought all the emotions back.'
After finishing, she let out an exasperated sigh - as if to make clear how much the incident had affected here.
Before signing off, she told her viewers: 'Golly - pregnancy loss is hard. [And] it's not even 12 o'clock yet.'
An accompanying caption asked onlookers 'Have you ever been in the waiting room after loss?' while including the hashtags #ttc #ttcafterloss #miscarriage #miscarriageawareness #pregnancyloss.
TTC stands for 'Trying to conceive.'
The video has since garnered attention from news stations across the country, including ABC's Good Morning America and LiveNOW from Fox, to whom Baston has in turn told: 'There are realistic ways we can help women navigate their grief.
'Treat them with dignity as they mourn the loss of their baby,' she added.

After finishing her piece, she lets out n exasperated sigh - telling her viewers: 'Golly - pregnancy loss is hard. It's not even 12 o'clock yet'
Speaking to 'GMA' Wednesday, she said that she and her spouse are ready to try again in May, and wants doctors to heed her suggestion in the meantime.
She added that she's heard from some others that their OB-GYNs do have separate waiting areas or staggered schedules to accommodate patients in her particular situation - and said that she hopes sharing here will inspire more widespread compassionate care.
'I can't speak for all women on what they would like. But it's clear that there are ways that we can navigate this,' she told the program.
'I would love nothing more than for this horrific experience to actually lead to positive changes for the women after me who will experience miscarriage.'
According to Stanford Medicine, pregnancy loss may occur in as many as 1 in 4 pregnancies - making Batson's request something to think about.
In the meantime, she continues to post about her 'fertility journey,' as a caption on her TikTok puts it - 'after 2 pregnancy losses back to back.'
