If you want to read the post in full, you can do so here but be warned that Zoe does not hold any information back. Zoe also notes that she received some backlash on a previous post where she discussed her pelvic floor and she recommends reading this before you read the one about the "broken vagina". Though her story is slightly gruesome, hearing women's experiences does help to normalise traumatic births and can even offer comfort to other mums. "Thanks Zoe, I am so sick of the fluffy natural childbirth bullshit. Not every birth is accompanied by violin and roses. It is so refreshing to read honesty for a change," wrote one commenter on her blog. "Incredibly honest and very well put, I’ve been through similar issues so therefore I can relate entirely and have to applaud you on your frank, honest and funny article," said another.
