 When I had my first unexpected C-section, I felt clueless even though I was a nurse and midwife. It was a tough time for me; I was isolated in a new suburb with no family support, and my friends were all working. It became clear that my midwifery education was lacking in the post-natal area. I guess that belonged to the maternal and child health nurses curriculum. I felt alone, scared and bewildered! 

With my own six caesarean births, and a long career in clinical midwifery practice and teaching, I have learnt so much. I now work as the 'C-section Recovery Whisperer' and I am passionate about sharing all I now know to help you through your postnatal period.

I love how practicable, uncomplicated and innovative Leonie’s Book is. Whilst I found the whole content very helpful, I found the “scheduled day of birth” section the most useful as she informed me of a lot of the things that I was “wondering about” ahead of the big day, and I hadn’t been able to source such info anywhere else. Leonie’s knowledge and experience gained over decades of work in the maternity wards and academia shines through at every juncture. Highly recommend!

I highly recommend all Doulas read the C-section recovery Manual. Most women have their first Caesarean section as an unplanned event. Never having researched how they occur and how to care for themselves afterwards. By equipping yourself with the knowledge in this book, you are better able to support your clients in the event of a Caesarean section. It’s full of practical tools and information to help women and their partners recover better. As Doulas we are well-placed to hand on this vital information when it’s needed.
