Our maternity system is broken. We have a postnatal depression epidemic, with suicide being the leading cause of maternal death in the developed world. Birth trauma is rampant. We have incredibly high intervention rates in birth around world, yet this is not leading to better outcomes for mothers and babies.

A conversation about what is REALLY going on in the world of maternity care, with two women who aren’t afraid to speak the truth and say it how it is.

 

We ran this live event in Sydney and recorded it for you to now view, no matter where you are in the world.

This event was a start to the REAL conversation behind our maternity healthcare practices and pregnancy conventions - in Australia and around the world.

Who really matters in the messy, muddled up mix that has become our maternity healthcare system?

When we tell women to stop worrying about themselves, or to stop being silly, or to do as they are told because someone in the medical garb knows them better than they know themselves - what are we really saying about how women should be treated in our society?

And if such treatment is so acceptable, why are we not telling our daughters and children the truth about what to expect when they get pregnant and walk into a maternity hospital?
