My experience of pregnancy, labour and early post-partum stages as a paraplegic mother. Interview with Ryan Rae Harbuck

Send us a text This week I had the absolute pleasure of talking to Ryan Rae Harbuck. She's the author of " When I grow up, I want TO BE A CHAIR ", mother of 2, swim coach and a paraplegic. She talks to me about her experience of being pregnant, giving birth and early post-partum stages whilst being a paraplegic. It's an astonishing insight in a world which, most able-bodied, people would never even be able consider. From being told that she would not be able to feel contractions, to weekly "are we almost there yet" check ups that turned out maybe not to be quite regular enough and a traumatic post-partum experience after the birth of her first son, to the birth of her second. She shares some tips to make life a bit easier for other mums who are in a wheelchair and is overall a phenomenal story teller. This is the FREEWHEEL extension she mentions in the interview. I am sure other suppliers are available. You can find Ryan every where.
