The Onyx Downtown and Nevada County Public Health Present No One Told Me

No One Told Me is a beautiful one-hour-long documentary about the immediate postpartum time. Through observational footage, this film witnesses first-time mother Elise from the moment she gives birth through the first ten weeks postpartum. A story filled with tender, tense, raw, and intimate moments, filmed in a way that makes you feel like you are right there in the room with the new parents.

No One Told Me is quickly becoming a widely used tool to help prepare expecting parents for the postpartum time. It is a powerful conversation starter to discuss postpartum care as well as to process past postpartum experiences from parents with children of all ages. As one midwife put it: “I would urge every birth-and-family worker to watch this film and incorporate it into your practice”
