In this episode, we discuss the serious issue of birth trauma, aka  PTSD related to pregnancy and childbirth. Birth trauma affects ⅓ birthing patients, which is way too high for our liking. Join us as we discuss common birth complications, medical mistreatment, and the unique challenges faced by women of color that contribute to birth trauma.  Additionally, we review trauma-informed care on labor and delivery and share how we strive as OBGYN residents to provide better care every day.
