Episode Synopsis

When you have a relatively smooth pregnancy, and a spontaneous, quick, uncomplicated and unmedicated birth at 39 weeks, you seem to have won the pregnancy and childbirth lottery, right? That’s what Matthew and Monika thought as well until she hit postpartum. And it wasn’t postpartum depression that took her out. It was the tear she endured during delivery that was unable to heal. For six months Monika had to return to her doctor every few weeks for more painful procedures and eventually surgery. It was like starting from Day One all over again every time. And that can take a toll on anybody, let alone a freshly-postpartum new mother filled with hormones.  • Interested in sharing your story on the podcast?
