          That wouldn’t be her “sending it back”

            Except if she means that her body is sending them back. Then the post makes a lot more sense, her blaming god for miscarriages.

              But the post says she sends them to god, not god sending and taking back so she clearly doesn’t blame god for miscarriage

                If your body does something, then you do something.

                  Yes, if my body miscarries, I send the baby back to god. If I blame god for that, I wouldn’t phrase it that way.

                      I love how I try to figure out the most likely intended meaning by thinking about how the one thing and the other would be most likely expressed but you win the argument by saying “YOU wouldn’t.” Whatever, this is the internet

            To those who are having the miscarriage, it definitely can seem like it is.

            It easily could. Religious funerals often say stuff like “were giving them back to you.”

        I thought it’s a joke, she is not really sending anything back to God just as God is not really sending her anything

        Extended explanation: I suspect the “back and forth” is likely a reference to the “poop back and forth” scene in Miranda July’s 2005 film Me and You and Everyone We Know.
