birth trauma and vicarious trauma stats showing they are connected
Birthing trauma and secondary trauma are linked like peanut butter 🥜 and jelly. Research now shows within a facility, if one is high so is the other.

It’s no secret that the birth world can be a bit of a minefield.

With so much conflicting information out there, it can be hard to know where to turn. And if you’re a labor and delivery nurse, the stakes are even higher.

Birth trauma and secondary trauma are real risks for both parents and nurses, and research shows they are interconnected. When the number of parents experiencing birth trauma goes up, so does secondary nurse trauma.

This is also why they must be addressed TOGETHER!

Our coaching and courses address BOTH.

Mandy Irby The Birth Nurse

“Birth Trauma is the abusive relationship none of us wanted but all (parents, nurses and hospitals) are victims of.  I’ve seen what happens when you step out of helplessness and into patient-centered care and it’s our mission that you do too.”

Founder & CEO - Mandy Irby
