About No One Told Me

No One Told Me is the podcast for C-section mums looking for the support and information they never got after birth — whether you're weeks, months, or even years postpartum. Hosted by Amy, a rehab and C-section specialist (and a mum of two C-section babies herself), each episode offers practical tips, guidance, and expert information to help you avoid or overcome common post C-section issues — like pain, weakness, or disconnection from your body. Because recovery doesn’t end after six weeks — and you deserve to feel strong, confident, and at home in your body again. Tune in each week to feel supported, informed, and inspired on your journey back to you. noonetoldme.substack.com (https://noonetoldme.substack.com?utm_medium=podcast)

   S.3. Ep.3 - Understanding Your C-Section - What Really Happens

   Understanding Your C-Section - What Really Happens In this episode, I take you through exactly what happens during a cesarean section - from the moment the decision is made, through every layer of surgery, to those first hours of recovery. Whether you’ve had a c-section and are trying to understand why your recovery has been so intense, or you’re preparing for an upcoming planned cesarean, this episode will help you truly grasp the magnitude of what your body goes through. What We Cover: Emergency vs. Planned C-Sections * What to expect in an emergency situation when decisions are made quickly * The calmer, more methodical process of a planned cesarean * How the preparation differs between the two scenarios In the Operating Room * Why the room feels so cold and clinical * Who all those people are and what they’re doing * What happens as you’re being prepped for surgery * The experience of receiving spinal or epidural anaesthesia The Surgery Step-by-Step * The seven layers your surgeon cuts through to reach your baby * What those pressure and pulling sensations actually are * Why the closing process takes longer than getting baby out * The reality of what’s happening while you’re meeting your newborn Immediate Recovery * What those first hours after surgery feel like * Why your body feels the way it does * The beginning of your healing journey Why Specialised Recovery Matters * Why surface-level care isn’t enough after major abdominal surgery * What your body actually needs to heal properly * The importance of working with professionals who understand c-section recovery Key Takeaway: You had major abdominal surgery while bringing your baby into the world. Understanding the reality of what your body has been through is the first step toward giving yourself the specialised care, time, and respect you deserve.

   Season 3. Episode 2: The Emotional Healing of Your C-Section Scar

   The Emotional Healing of Your C-Section Scar In this week’s episode, we dive deep into the often-overlooked emotional aspect of C-section healing. Your scar is more than just a physical mark - it’s a story written across seven layers of tissue, each one holding its own memories, emotions, and experiences. What We Cover: We explore why it’s completely normal to cry when you touch, look at, or even think about your c-section scar. Tears aren’t a sign of weakness - they’re part of your body’s natural release process and a crucial step in your healing journey. This episode emphasises why the emotional healing journey is just as important as the physical one. Your scar and the tissue beneath it can hold onto so much baggage: the circumstances of your birth, feelings of loss or grief, the trauma of surgery, or even disappointment about how your birth unfolded. We can’t truly heal until we acknowledge and process what our bodies are holding onto. Join the New Moon Workshop Ready to begin your own healing journey?
