118. From Planned C-Section to Birth Trauma: What Led to Postpartum OCD with Jaimee Walters
Om avsnittet
You’ve probably heard “it’s just the baby blues” or “you’ll feel like yourself again soon” — but those messages miss what many moms actually go through after birth. In this episode, Jaimee Walters shares how her history of anxiety became amplified after a traumatic delivery and NICU stay — leading to postpartum OCD and intrusive thoughts. Her story is a reminder that it’s okay to not be okay — but it’s just as important to speak up, ask questions, and advocate for the care you deserve. Because when it comes to maternal mental health, awareness before baby matters just as much as support after.
