[Birth Stories] Triumphant Vaginal Birth of Twins Despite Preeclampsia and Triggering Interventions, with Michelle Rose

Michelle Rose describes her birth as that of her dreams, despite having a two-and-a-half-day-long induction for preeclampsia with a low platelet count, enduring a magnesium drip, a non-working epidural, a horrific vaginal check, hemorrhaging badly enough to require a blood infusion, and feeling like her body was in trauma response during the whole time she was at the hospital… all of that on top of a difficult IVF journey with four miscarriages! She shares with Adriana how EMDR trauma therapy has been key for her healing journey, and how her experience increased her determination to work through the challenges, drawing power from knowing that she did it.
