We end season 4 with a BIG one!
In this episode, I have the absolute privilege of chatting to Dr. Rosie, a clinical psychologist and founder of The Birth Healing Collective, to discuss the difficult yet common experience of birthing again after birth trauma. Dr. Rosie shares her expertise on how women can heal from a traumatic birth, rebuild trust in their bodies, and prepare emotionally, socially and practically for their next birth experience. We dive into practical strategies for managing fear and anxiety, the importance of a trauma-informed birth plan, and the crucial role partners play in the healing and birthing process. Whether you’ve experienced birth trauma firsthand or are supporting someone who has, this episode is packed with empowering advice to help navigate the journey towards a positive and empowering birth!
I am often asked "how do you have another baby after trauma?" and this episode is designed to address the nuance that comes with birthing again after trauma. Make sure you check out Dr Rosie's resources below and thank you for listening!
