This epsiode is a conversation between Annalee Atia and Alysha-leigh Fameli. Alysha-leigh is PhD student/Registered Psychologist University of Sydney. Alicia-leigh has already undertaken important research to recognise childbirth related PTSD and it's impact on the early mother-infant relationship. She has also worked on a study titled ‘Assessment of childbirth-related post traumatic stress disorder in Australian mothers: Psychometric properties of the City Birth Trauma Scale’.

As part of her new and current research, she is seeking the participation of mothers with infants aged 0-6 months for participation in a clinical interview, observation and online survey. If this is you, check out our links below to see how you can be involved. Your experiences matter and recording them safely and officially helps to prevent future harm and creates the space for others to have their experiences validated.

As you may know, the rates of PTSD in childbirth are growing. These statistics are ones that us here at PBB Media are not okay with. We will also leave some mental health resources below. If you are feeling like you need mental health support in relation to your birth or postpartum, know that you are not alone.
