Welcome to our Blog

Change not Trauma– Our voices need to be heard in order for change to happen.

Welcome to the #fiveXmore blog.

The purpose of this blog is to give black women a voice, to show that there are real life people behind the statistics and to ensure that one way or another our voices and stories will not be silenced.

This is a safe space for women to share their experiences of their pregnancy and labour without fear of judgement and each week we will have a guest blogger tell us her story.

We ask that you are respectful of everyone’s experiences and aware that this blog will contain sensitive topics and also details of birth trauma which may be triggering for some.

If you are interested in having your story told, or are a health professional with some helpful tips please email us at fivexmore@gmail.com

Thanks, #fiveXmore team.
