I'm very pleased to post a podcast interview with childbirth pioneer Penny Simkin, on the topic of breastfeeding and early sexual abuse.
Penny is the author of When Survivors Give Birth, on early sexual abuse and birth, and has recently been lecturing on breastfeeding and sexual abuse.
This is a topic that no one talks about, but sexual abuse is frighteningly common, and undoubtedly affects many women's breastfeeding experiences.
