The Birth Trauma Mama Podcast

Ep.140: HIE, a NICU Journey, & a Subsequent Birth feat. Sarah


Listen Later

On this week's listener episode, we welcome Sarah. Sarah shares her two birth experiences with us. Her first pregnancy resulted in an undetected infection and meconium aspiration, which led to her daughter's hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) diagnosis.  Sarah also shares about her subsequent pregnancy and birth which she describes as part of her healing.

On this episode, you will hear:
- Maternal infection
- Meconium aspiration
- Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE)
- NICU journey
- Healing and support: finding community
- Second birth experience as redemptive
- Advocacy and intuition
