Genelle Aldred was excited as she went into the hospital to give birth to her first daughter, Sade-Rose, despite the enormous impact it would have on her life. Just 19 at the time, the mum-to-be had bought the pram, painted a room in her home, and put herself second - halting her career plans and hopes for the future.
But a few days later she returned home from the hospital empty-handed, having lost her baby at the last possible moment of her pregnancy when her placenta ran out - even though she'd seen seven midwives in a single week. Now, 21 years later, Genelle has shared her story to help others going through similar experiences, and explained how the trauma has impacted her life ever since.
