Birth Stories

Do you have a Birth Story or two you'd like to share? 

Have you had a baby at Genesis Clinic recently? What was your baby's birth like? Did you have an easy or difficult time in labour? We all love to hear other people's birth experiences and also to share about our own experiences, no matter what the outcome of your birth, whether you had natural or you had a VBAC (Vaginal Birth After C-section), or you tried for natural but ended up with a C-section.

Story telling is an important part of moving into parenthood. You have probably told the story of your labour and the birth of your baby over and over many times to your friends, family and neighbours, maybe even to complete strangers on the bus or when you were at work!

Each woman's story is unique and each labour and birth is unique for every woman. So whether you have one child or ten, no two labours will be the same - at least it would be very rare if they were. Have you had 2 labours that were identical? If so please do tell us about them.

So take some time and write your story. When you're happy with it email it here for others to read. By sharing your experience you can help other people to learn by things you have gone through.

Whatever your childbirth journey is, we'd all love to hear it!
