The Only Positive Thing Was You
from Healing Birth · host Diana Forsell Tayan
After two pretty straightforward births, Amy's third birth resulted in a traumatic, unplanned cesarean, where she experienced obstetric violence, PTSD, and postpartum depression and anxiety. Amy had a lot a trauma from childhood come up for her after this birth. She says that the experience made her second guess everything she believed about the medical system, and even her beliefs about God. After that birth, and two losses, Amy had her fourth baby at home. Amy graciously shared with me some of the resources that were most helpful to help her heal: 1. This podcast (thank you!) 2. The place we find ourselves (podcast) with Adam Young 3. Birth Trauma for Birthworkers (podcast) with Dr. Erin Bowe 4. How to Heal a Bad Birth (book) by Melissa J. Bruijn 5. Brave Beautiful Birth (book) by Jamie Schrock You can follow Amy @burr382 If you love the show, please support us on Patreon! www.patreon.com/healingbirth
