“I like using the term “nursing” sometimes instead of “breastfeeding,” because sometimes it’s not about hunger.

Sometimes, it’s about baby wanting to cuddle with you, smell your sweet scent, and cozy up to your warmth.

Sometimes it’s about feeling lonely or scared, and mouth to breast provides connection.

Sometimes it’s about the pain of teething, or needing antibodies to get over a cold.

So remember, you are so much more than a food source - so. much. more."

No medication is without risk unfortunately. Sometimes the benefits justify the risks, but not always. Research well and hone those maternal instincts, Mamas!

If you took Tylenol while pregnant and your child developed Autism we can help you get compensation.

My 3rd was born with a triple nuchal cord and still came out nice and pink with a big strong cry like he was supposed to. 🥰

This is something that comes up with many of my clients.

It's another fear that has been driven into us from the media and shared stories.

👉 Nuchal cords are a variation of normal and rarely cause a problem.

🤔 What if i told you that nuchal cords are as common as 1/3 of all pregnancies.

👉 It looks pretty scary to see something wrapped around a babies neck but we have to remember they don't breathe through their lungs, they get oxygen and blood through the cord.

👉 Ok, but what about the cord being compressed and stopping that?

👊 Well, natures got you covered.
The cord is covered in a jelly substance called Wharton's Jelly.

👉 This is there to protect the veins and arteries in the cord. To stop them from being compressed and it does a fantastic job and means that the cord can squish into all sorts of amazing things including knots without causing a problem.

👉 In fact, the cord being around the babies neck is a good thing. If it were around the babies head it would get squashed coming out from under the p***c bone as this is a tight squeeze.
So it being tucked under the chin around the neck is actually a great way of stopping this from happening.

👉 Once born you (or your midwife) can easily slip the cord over your babies head, sometimes doing a somersault flip on the way out.

✨I keep saying it, natures unbelievably clever and thinks of everything.
