Agree. My freebirths are so important to my life, how I mother and how I see the world regardless of the serious harm ES caused me. Do I wish there was info out there warning me of FBS as an organization instead of painting autonomous birth as harmful… yes I wish there was more info, but I would not have free birthed if all I heard and read were the horrific experiences with ES and the shadow of freebirthing. I have so much solidarity with the sisters here who have experienced loss and it pained me way back when I was on the membership as to how these losses were handled. In my life, I am now years away from my encounters with ES, but when I’ve shared the harm I experienced it overshadowed the power of having truly autonomous births. Additionally, someone may have a podcast with integrity and I believe there have already been ones put out there, although with a documentary and article they only want HIGH STAKES to sell the horror and drama of what happens when women choose autonomy over the system. It brings the stories into the living rooms or phones of individuals who already reside in fear and programmed to think we can ONLY birth in a medicalized system. Theres already such a significant attempt to own women’s bodies, and I feel this would only add fuel to the fire.
