Samantha Keen chats to me about her birth experiences; induced vaginal birth that went relatively smoothly and then her planned caesarean and recovery. Samantha shares her reasons for opting for a caesarean after a positive vaginal birth experience due to lack of education and support for her pelvic floor and the trouble that followed. Samantha’s story is important because it shows not only a positive experience in both birth scenarios, but also the consequences for a woman in a culture that cares about the baby and not necessarily the mother aka pelvic floor, recovery time, being cleared at 6 weeks, better support and postpartum care and ultimately how a woman births in future.
