@psychnursekelly: As a perinatal mental health certified provider, I see firsthand the trauma that can occur when someone’s labor and delivery don’t go according to plan. When moms experience birth trauma, it can impact them in ways they aren’t expecting postpartum. Bonding with the baby, feelings of shame or guilt, and puts them at a higher risk for developing a postpartum mood or anxiety disorder. I had the pleasure of meeting Jen Hamilton at one of her book signings and read this book cover to cover. It is the most down to earth and real book that highlights the importance of being informed so moms can have an empowered birth, even when things may not go according to plan. I highly recommend expecting moms read this and mothers already had children it can heal emotional wounds you may be carrying from your birth experience. Thank you Jen for creating this important resource! #birthtrauma #waypointcounselingnc #postpartum #pregnancy #jenhamilton
