About Birth Untamed

My name is Sharn and I am a registered midwife, although I have chosen to no longer work for the NHS. I have created Birth Untamed with the goal to provide you with the evidence and information you need to confidently achieve the natural birth you desire. Despite rising intervention rates and increasing medicalisation, birth outcomes for women and babies are not improving. Instead, we are witnessing a rise in birth trauma and long-term health issues. In my experience, most women seek an empowering, normal birth where they feel heard and supported—yet NHS maternity services often fall short. Now more than ever, it’s essential to have the knowledge and confidence to advocate for yourself, your baby, and your birth experience.
