Today’s birth story guest is Julia and she shares her story of an emergency cesarean after multiple attempted inversions to turn her son who was breech.  

I want to acknowledge that not all birth experiences go as you expect they will.  For the mamas that are currently pregnant, you may want to shield yourself from potentially triggering stories.  I want to take this moment to honor your emotional well-being and provide a compassionate trigger warning.

For the rest of the week, we are going to hear powerful stories that shed light on the challenges, the unexpected turns, and the emotional aftermath of a birth story that does not go as you imagined it would.    I believe it’s important to create a safe space for these narratives, to raise awareness, and to support those who have gone through difficult birth experiences.  

To all the pregnant mothers listening, I encourage you to assess your emotional readiness for today’s episode.  If hearing stories of birth trauma might not be what you need at the moment , I completely understand.  Please feel free to skip the rest of the episodes for this week and join me again next week for an empowering birth tale.  

For those who have recently experienced birth trauma yourself, I want you to know that you are not alone.  I see you, I hear you, and I am here to support you.  

In addition to my weekly podcast and my adventures across Maine as a Birth Photographer, I offer a virtual service designed specifically for mothers who need to process their birth stories. 

 My Birth Trauma Healing Sessions over Zoom provide a safe and confidential space to explore your emotions, find healing, and work through any lingering feelings of disappointment, fear, or grief.

I am an experienced birth professional and I am ready to listen with empathy, offer guidance, and help you navigate the complexities of your birth experience.  If you’re interested in scheduling a Birth Trauma Healing Session, visit my website at www.mymainephoto.com. to learn more and book your session.  

Remember, your story matters, and I am here to support you every step of the way.  Together, we can heal, grow, and find strength in our shared experiences.  

Thank you for joining me today on MyMaine Birth and remember to take care of yourself and each other.  And as always, let’s keep the conversation going!  You can always message me over on social media, you can find me on Facebook and instagram  @mymainephoto.
