*Discretion advised - TW for physical and emotional abuse*I've decided to share the story of my eldest's birth. One of the sweetest days of my life. Ive decided its important to ask discuss the background of my relationship with my partner at the time, to bring awareness to the fact that one in four women experiences domestic abuse or domestic violence at some point in their lives. It can be physical, sexual, emotional, psychological or financial, and is often a combination of these types.
