A reassuring, no-nonsense guide to caring for your body throughout motherhood from women’s health specialist, Emma Brockwell – the empowering book for new mums and mums-to-be.

‘Wonderfully empowering’ Giovanna Fletcher, founder of Happy Mum

For too long, women have been told that debilitating conditions following pregnancy are normal, to be expected, and something to just put up with. Women’s health specialist Emma Brockwell is on a mission to change this.

Having been through two difficult pregnancies herself, Emma combines her expertise as a specialist women’s health physiotherapist with personal experience to create a warm, honest, and essential handbook to help pregnant women and new mums take control and care for their changing bodies.

In Why Did No One Tell Me? you’ll learn how to:

Protect and strengthen your pelvic floor
Prepare your body for labour and giving birth
Heal effectively from birth – both vaginal deliveries and caesarean sections
Safely return to exercise after birth
Understand and manage common pregnancy and postnatal problems

Every woman has the right to be informed about their body. This empowering guide gives you all the tools you need to look after your amazing body throughout motherhood.
