Healing After Birth: Navigating Your Emotions After A Difficult Birth

Healing After Birth: Helping Mothers Make Sense of The Unexpected.

A Mothers Guide:

• Did you have an unexpected, difficult, or scary childbirth experience?

• Did you feel utterly unprepared for what took place during

  labour and delivery and for what followed?

• After giving birth, were you left with unanswered questions,

  unresolved grief, and emotional challenges?

• Do you sometimes feel that what you experienced was traumatic?

  If this is you, you are not alone. Many women have unexpected, difficult, or even traumatic birthing experiences. Yet, too often, mothers are left to resolve their feelings on their own.

  This guidebook will help you make sense of your unexpected birthing experience. It will help you understand why you are struggling in the post-partum--no matter how many days, months, or years it has been. And, it will lead you through simple yet effective reflective exercises that you can do at home to help you feel better.

  Stop living with grief, anger, regret, or shame about your birthing experience. Reclaim your birth story, deepen your bond with your child, and confidently step into your role as a mother.
