About this listen

One in three births is traumatic.

It doesn’t have to be that way.

Rebecca planned to give birth at the hospital affiliated with her university, where she was an award-winning nurse researcher finishing her doctoral degree. But hospital practices and policies that were more than 20 years out of date left her with complications that seemed preventable. Worst for Rebecca, her healthy baby was whisked off to a nursery right away. She spent the first few hours after birth begging to see her own baby!

A few years later and pregnant again, Rebecca put her research skills to work and examined the hard evidence on what went wrong with her first childbirth experience.

She discovered shocking truths that not only impact millions of families every year, but would change the entire course of her life.

Embark on a journey with Rebecca as she exposes the stark realities of institutional care during childbirth and reveals inspirational solutions for parents and professionals alike.

But it’s not what I was looking for, I don’t know but I don’t live in the US so I don’t relate to most of the book, I was thinking I’m going to read about pregnancy and birth but it turned about to be more about the author’s own journey

Overall It’s a good book

I dont think there were many things wrong with the book - more with me.
listening to the book and the stories of her birth and her recounting other peoples traumatic births has triggered a lot of unwanted memories of my own. so listen with care if you have unresolved issues around the subject
