This week our host Theo is joined by Dr Kim Thomas, CEO of the Birth Trauma Association, to answer listener questions on birth trauma. They share information for expectant mothers and families who've experienced a traumatic birth, including recovery from mental and physical health issues after childbirth, and provide some practical advice to help affected families.



Topics that we discuss on the show include: antenatal classes, recovering from stiches, induction, pain relief and epidurals, risks in childbirth, perineal tears and incontience, bonding with baby, mental health support and breastfeeding.
