Birth trauma stories
If you’ve been through a traumatic birth, it can help to read other people’s stories. Over the past few years, many women, and a few men, have kindly shared their stories with us.
Lizzie’s story
After a traumatic first birth with a 3b tear and operation I was petrified of giving birth again. I opted for an elective c section to try and get more control. My elective c section went badly wrong.
Kerry’s story
After having IVF and a rough pregnancy, something I now realise they don't prepare you for is if complications arise during labour.
