#8 – Birth, sweat and trauma

#08 Birth, sweat and trauma

What happens when the birth of your baby, that long-awaited happy event, leaves you traumatised?  How do you manage when it feels as though every other new mum is coping and you’re struggling just to get through the day?  Lotty speaks out about her experience of having her daughter, 7-month old Daisy and how the series of traumatic events she experienced will have lifelong consequences for her and her family.
