What I Learned {Healing from Trauma with Birth and Motherhood}

{Submitted by Laura M.}

This year was one of the hardest, yet memorable years of my life. My son Evan Sage was born in February. I am a trauma survivor and had surrounded myself with a team of midwives and doulas that I felt could keep me grounded during giving birth. The birth of my child transformed me in ways I can’t even put into words.

I learned how to put my fear aside and have the birth nature intended. This year I learned what it meant to put another life before my own. I learned how to let go of the little girl my 20 week ultrasound told me I was having and embrace the son who was destined to be mine. I learned how to breastfeed and how to give it up and still feel okay about it. This year I fell in love with my husband all over again. This year I became a mom.
