Overview

Many parents are told that once the baby is safe, the experience should simply be forgotten. But for those who have experienced birth trauma, miscarriage, NICU stays, or postpartum PTSD, the emotional impact can linger long after the birth itself. If memories of your pregnancy or labour still feel difficult to revisit, you are not alone. Healing After Pregnancy Trauma is a compassionate guide for parents recovering from traumatic birth experiences, pregnancy loss, medical emergencies, and postpartum trauma. Written by former midwife and maternal wellbeing advocate Cheryl Wilkinson, this book offers understanding, reassurance, and practical tools for navigating the emotional aftermath of difficult pregnancies and births. Drawing on both professional insight and lived experience, the book gently explains how trauma can affect both the mind and body - and how healing can begin. Inside this book you will learn how to: - recognise the signs of birth trauma and postpartum PTSD - understand why memories of labour or pregnancy may return unexpectedly - release feelings of guilt, shame, or self-blame - rebuild connection with your body and your baby - navigate hospitals and medical appointments after trauma - find supportive communities and trauma-informed care - approach future pregnancies with greater confidence Whether your experience involved an emergency delivery, miscarriage, a difficult labour, NICU admission, or simply a feeling that something was not right, your story deserves to be acknowledged. Healing does not require forgetting what happened. It begins with understanding. If this book offers comfort or clarity during a difficult time, consider leaving a review so that other parents searching for support can find it.
