Many women experience childbirth that does not go as they wish, with one in two or even one in three experiencing physical or psychological violence. Lena Högemann has written a book on the subject: "I Didn't Want to Give Birth Like This!". In it, she tells her own story and that of thirty other women and men and has interviewed selected experts. Her goal is to raise awareness that women's right to self-determination is not always upheld during childbirth.
Reading and discussion about births - from traumatic to self-determined and about the obstetric system. Lena Högemann works in Berlin as a freelance journalist, author, and podcaster. Her book "I Didn't Want to Give Birth Like This! What Women Need to Know for a Self-Determined Birth" was published on March 14, 2024, by Ullstein Verlag.
