The major Krone+ series on violence in the delivery room caused a sensation. In addition to the serious psychological consequences, there is also physical damage that sometimes affects women for years. A reader reports on a common problem that occurs even after non-violent births.
The story of Celina K., who made serious accusations against a Viennese hospital in the “Krone”, led to violent reactions. She had hoped for a safe delivery, but left the hospital severely traumatized. “One doctor jumped on my stomach, one cut me open,” she accuses. According to the young mother, her daughter and she also suffered from the late administration of an opioid. She now wants to discuss her options with the Viennese Patient Advocate.
One thing is for sure: violence in the delivery room can be a lifelong trauma for women. Anxiety, depression or post-traumatic stress disorder are common, which can also affect the interaction between mother and child. But the physical damage that can – or does not have to – be suffered during childbirth and especially with measures such as the Kristeller manoeuvre, can cause women discomfort for months or even years. But this is rarely talked about – the subject is fraught with shame. Marie Krüger can tell you something about it (sadly).
