Summary
One in three Australian women describe their births as traumatic. Long labours, health scares, emergency interventions, feeling ignored, and lasting physical and psychological injuries can turn what's meant to be one of life's biggest moments into something deeply distressing. Yumi Stynes hears from women still coming to terms with their birth experiences, sometimes years later, and finds out what can be done to prevent traumatic births. (R). Featured in this episode: Dr Jessica Caudwell-Hall, Obstetrician and Gynaecologist, Nepean Hospital. Sophie Carroll, Pelvic Health Physiotherapist, Enlighten Health Collective.
