Violence at births: Lena Högemann clarifies in Wilhelmshaven!

Virchowstraße 29, 26382 Wilhelmshaven, Deutschland - A birth should be the most beautiful event in a woman's life, but often the reality is terrifyingly different! In Wilhelmshaven, the courageous author Lena Högemann talks about her experiences and those of many other women who experienced physical and verbal violence at birth. In her book "I didn't want to give birth to my child", she reveals the dark side of obstetrics and shows what is really wrong.

On Tuesday, October 29, Högemann will read from her captivating work from 6.30 p.m. in the Hans-Bütz-Haus of the Volkshochschule. Her lecture, a mix of reading and an enlightening lecture, not only gives couples important information about the preparation for birth, but also helps affected mothers to understand their traumatic experiences. "It is crucial to get help and realize that it is not the women but the system failed!" She emphasizes with emphasis.

The cruel reality of obstetrics

"Every second woman could have had such experiences of violence during the birth - I was also affected!" Recorded Högemann. It addresses the normalization of violence in the delivery room, where midwives and doctors often act unreflected. "Sometimes a dam is carried out without prior consent, and this often happens under the pretext of a supposed medical necessity!" She complains. But for many women, this intervention has profound psychological consequences. Högemann describes how the emotional connection to the newborn is interrupted after traumatic births in many women - "love for the child remains in the delivery room!"

The obstetrics system is under pressure: delivery room closures and lack of personnel lead to an environment in which many women feel that they are alone and misunderstood. "Many only hear, the main thing is that the child is healthy!", She criticizes and warns: "It is high time to make these secret fights visible!" Högemann asks to take your own experience seriously and network solidarity with each other - because the stories have to come to light!
