What No One Told Me About C-Section Recovery

In this solo episode, I open up about my postpartum recovery following an unexpected c-section and the challenges that came with it. I share my personal experience navigating intense nerve pain, skin hypersensitivity, and the emotional toll of struggling with breastfeeding in those early weeks. This season of recovery was nothing like I imagined, and it reminded me just how unpredictable birth and postpartum can be. I speak to the vital importance of having solid postpartum support in place — not just in case things go sideways, but even when everything goes “right.” Every new mother deserves the chance to rest, heal, and bond with her baby, and that’s only possible when we’re held and supported in those first tender weeks.
