38 // Traumatic Birth & Postpartum Bonding - Sarah Poland’s Birth Story - Unnecessary Labor Induction, Cesarean, NICU, Postpartum Support

After her non medically indicated induction and 8 days in the NICU, Sarah was happy to finally be bringing her baby girl home. However, once home the trauma hit and she struggled to bond with her daughter. When she decided to speak up about her postpartum bonding experience and her birth, she received the support she needed and began to make the connection with her sweet girl.

 

Today Sarah shares her story to encourage moms like you to educate and advocate for yourself, to ask questions, and understand that if you're not connecting with your new miracle as you expected you would, that you're not alone.

 

This episode speaks to unnecessary induction, failed induction, risks of cesarean section, VBAC, postpartum bonding with baby, birth trauma, and postpartum support. "If you don't know your options, you don't have any." - Diana Korte and Roberta Scaer

 

Birth stories inspire us to learn and are testimonies of what is possible. Share this story and help a mama avoid an unnecessary induction/ cesarean section. Plant that seed my friend.

 

All the love,

Sarah
