In this episode, Karen and Bashi are having a raw and frank conversation about informed consent and birth.
It is our hope that by honouring and hearing those women who have experienced trauma in our maternity system and by having important and yes at times, confronting conversations such as this one, we may be able to reduce the incidence of preventable birth trauma for future women.
It’s important to acknowledge there are many Doctors and Midwives who work in our maternity system who are very woman-centred and value informed consent.
If at any time you are feeling triggered by what is being discussed, please feel free to stop listening and we will see you next time.
