Gi continues her conversation with Louise Thompson...
This week Giovanna is joined by former Made in Chelsea star, author and businesswoman, Louise Thompson.
Louise’s life changed when she suffered severe complications during the birth of her son Leo, which left her in Intensive Care. Since then she has suffered with PTSD and continued health problems, resulting in recently being fitted with a stoma bag.
This is the second part of Louise’s candid conversation with Gi where she describes the impact her experiences have had on her mental health whilst also coming to terms with the challenges of motherhood.
Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussions around subjects including traumatic birth and PTSD. If you feel this may be a difficult listen, please choose another episode.

Phenomenal woman. I am completely in awe of her. Wish her nothing but happiness and calm for her and her family in the future.

‘I was not a good present mother’ - Louise you fought so hard to survive for your little boy! That’s what the best mothers do. You are the best mum in the world to Leo because you’re the only one he has! Surviving and getting through those days to ensure you were here to see through better ones with him is just incredible given everything you went through. Thank you for your honesty and vulnerability

I’m crying listening to this 😢 I have followed you, Louise, for years since the MIC days, so I knew abit about your birth story from Instagram but hearing the full details of how and what happened is heartbreaking. This should of been the happiest moment of your life, I’m so sorry this happened to you 💔 Thankyou for having the courage to share your story, I’m sure it will help a lot of women, now and in the future.

I feel so bad for Louise, you are a inspiration to your little boy. Being a mother of three myself life is hard enough never mind with everything you have gone trough I hope life is getting easier for you and your road ahead is peaceful and joyful

Thank you so much for being so open and vulnerable and taking the time to share your story now that you are ready to. As someone who also had a traumatic first birth, so much of what you said resonated with me. My worry is for women who don’t have a supportive partner or close other to enable them to recover at their pace. I’d love to know if there are any charities out there that support women with this?

Louise is doing an unbelievably amazing job of talking about her experience. Traumatic birth , near death experience and the terror of the possibility of leaving your family and this world behind, it doesn't get any deeper. Very moving. Well done Louise.

Just downloaded your book, I had read your posts but wasn't aware of how awful it was. You have been through so much. Thank you for having this difficult conversation xx

I started crying watching this, oh my heart 💔 Louise is so so brave and such an inspiration! she’s also so gorgeous and adorable, sending her so much strength x

I have never been so compelled to watch/listened to something. Louise's story is incredibly difficult and so important to be talked about. You are so respectful and gracious about the hospital and the care you have received. They have been amazing in so many ways since but failed you so terribly in the beginning. I had a bad birth experience during the pandemic, and struggled afterwards for a long time. I wish you all the best for your future ❤

Wishing Louise all the happiness and healing. Felt very moved by her description of how she was mentally affected. Totally understand the fear and isolation. How mental ill health feels so much worse and more scary than physical ill health. You somehow feel you should be able to control depression. Take care of yourself and your lovely family. Thank you for sharing, I could feel your raw emotions and wish you all the very very best for the future

Bless her heart, the bravery and determination is out of this world.mental health on top of everything is so hard to control when life is so so difficult.Just goes to show anything can happen to any of us at any point

Such a traumatic series of events at the most challenging time in a woman’s life! I had very similar birth trauma and empathise immensely with Louise. I do feel that mainstream medicine has totally let her down and maybe now she could find some alternative treatments and diets to fix her leaky gut. All the drugs she has been pumped with will have definitely wrecked her gut and microbiome. Now her gut is tested with the stoma, maybe trying a carnivore diet with fasting may help heal her gut. Antibiotics and steroids seem the right thing but I think they do more harm than good. All the best to her and I hope she finds a better path away from the NHS big pharma cabal. There is so many alternative practitioners and a Functional Medicine Physician may be a good move for her xxx

I have ulcerative colitis as well and in Canada anyone who has Crohn’s or colitis automatically is scheduled for a C-section because it’s very high risk. I can’t believe it’s not the same in the UK 😮

This was very emotional, poor Louise, so glad she could talk about her ordeal, I really hope she feels 100% soon xx

I really relate to Anxiety and the feeling of de realisation. When you have really bad anxiety it is so hard to function. I went down a rabbit hole of anxiety and you cannot underestimate it. Luckily it is alot better now ❤️ (RU-vid self help videos!!) The only way is up now Louise xx

@JustForKickss 17 дней назад

I remember reading Louise's instagram updates during this time and being absolutely horrified and worried for her, and that's without all the details you discuss here. Such an amazing episode that I am sure is going to help so many. Thank you Louise for sharing your story. What an incredible, strong and now even more empathetic woman you are
