My wife endured two days of labor before we finally went to the hospital for a delivery. When we returned home with our newborn baby 48 hours later, my wife experienced sudden paralysis in her upper body (epidural side affect) the next morning. I had to call an ambulance while managing our baby on my own during a nerve-wracking 30-minute car ride to the hospital.
Arriving at the hospital, my wife was admitted to the ICU, I was alone with our newborn baby, that was the first time when I did genuine prayer to my Goddess and experienced the surrender.
We rarely talk about the dark side of pregnancy. Pregnancy is not a joke, it's incredibly unpredictable, two lives are on the stake until the last moment. The following three months after delivery were immensely challenging, especially without additional support. It was just the two of us navigating through the difficulties of caring for a newborn.
My wife continues to battle postpartum depression along with severe back and shoulder pain, but overall she is recovering quick and well.
As parents we both are extremely grateful for our daughter because she has transformed our lives, we have experienced the Goddess through her. Now, we approach nature with humility, devotion and reverence.
As a man I have huge respect for every mother because she sacrifices herself for her babyโฆ

I canโt believe Iโm even writing these words, my 10 year old nephew was punched multiple times by his teacher Tracey at Christ The King School in Islington.
The 10 year old had to go to A&E immediately after reporting severe pains across his chest and back areas.
A teacher has actually assaulted a 10 year old child, requiring them to be sent to A&E, lied on the childโs name until other children and teachers spoke up AND is still on site.
We need the name of this child abuser and those protecting them too
@PearlKosi contact @mamadinya she may be able to stand in that gap for you sheโs amazing you deserve a midwife but she can be your doula !!! and advocate for you
