About one in three people who gave birth say their experience was traumatic. This means it felt very upsetting or even scary. We know that physical pain and emotional distress often happen together.
That’s why we wanted to make sure our service supports people in a kind, safe and caring way — without causing more harm.
To help us do this, we asked to hear about your experience of birth — especially if you had a perineal injury.
Thank you for sharing your stories, we are now going to read every one that has been submitted and use your stories to support the training that we give our workers in the Perinatal Pelvic Health Service pathways. We will give our workers the knowledge and tools to reduce the likelihood of re-traumatising people and support them if they become triggered within the appointment.
