My goodness, that was a tough but important listen. The bravery of this lovely lady is just immense. What her and their family and other families in Southport have gone through is just unimaginable. Elsie would be so proud! Very sensitively handled too x
I think I’m listening to a podcast that will help me manage my fear and anxiety around birth - but it contains a midwife stating that women worry about surviving birth and a story about baby death. Bizarre and really upsetting to entice an audience of people coming for support and subjecting them to sad stories with no trigger warning. I can’t unhear what I’ve heard now.
Whilst I enjoy the midwife stories I find the background music annoying & distracting, there is no need for it . That said I love the happy mum podcast overcast & think Giovanna is fantastic
Please stop with all the ads 😭
I LOVE THIS ♥️♥️ So beautifully made, i felt like i was transported into the story and so informative. Faith in humanity restored 🥰 Well done to the team and the lovely midwives xxxx
