To all the people saying this is fear-mongering or overblown: it's not and you're a part of the problem. It's real and it happened to me at a leading American hospital and research institution. I didn't deserve this, and neither did my baby. To the hosts and the women who shared their stories: thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank you for making me feel seen, you don't know how much your courage means. I am so grateful <3

I agree with the other reviewers that this is a great podcast, but the medical drama narrative was weird and unnecessary. I don’t understand what value the podcast creators thought that added. Just stick to the story like a normal documentary/informative podcast

Both the first and second season are incredibly well done, well-researched, well-paced and at many times unexpectedly fun and funny! However, it seems the intersectionality of non-white women, and other bodies that give birth was shoved into the last episode as an afterthought (even the podcast imagery lends itself to a very specific lens). Given the alarming rates of Black maternal mortality and the general push for Black bodies to go under C-section—I was looking forward to more data and storytelling surrounding this grave issue. But it fell short. Maybe the 3rd season?! :)

This was an amazing podcast. Going through such a traumatic birth experience changes you. I have always felt alone in what I went through. I felt jealous of others who had no problems. No one to relate to or speak about my experience. This podcast made me feel like I was not alone. Beautiful.
