Description
Traumatic Childbirth explores a growing concern in women's health: traumatic childbirth. Despite its prevalence, this topic is often overlooked by healthcare professionals.
This groundbreaking book brings together an academic, a clinician, and a birth trauma activist to discuss current research, women's stories, common themes, and implications for practice. Topics include mothers' perspectives, fathers' experiences, breastfeeding, subsequent births, PTSD after childbirth, and EMDR treatment for PTSD.
Valuable for health professionals who work with new mothers, this book provides the most current information on traumatic childbirth while presenting mothers' stories in an accessible way.
