Have you seen this image pop up on my page before, I mean the black and white photo behind the infographic? It's me and my little girl when she was just a few months old, and a photographer captured this adorable moment of her breastfeeding. I love it! But it does remind me of all the tough times we had breastfeeding. I had so many clogs and blocks. I got through mastitis a few times too, always through manual boob therapy, thankfully I didn't need any antibiotics YES - it is often possible to recover from mastitis without taking antibiotics, but you have to know what you are looking for and act quickly So these are the top 6 signs that you have a clog: 1️⃣ Painful breast 2️⃣ Tender lump, possibly also redness of the skin over the lump 3️⃣ A small white blister on the nipple (milk bleb) 4️⃣ Slow milk flow 5️⃣ Swelling or redness of the breast 6️⃣ Low fever / Areas that are warm to touch DM me now if you think you have any signs of this and lets walk you through step by step what is the right way for you to handle your boobs Sometimes it can be as simple a a "basic boob management protocol" that will take you no more than 5 mins everyday, or if you need referral to a Dr I'll be honest about that too DM me now if your boobs are blocked! DM the word "MASTITIS" and I'll send you the Empowa 7 page Guide to Mastitis 🤱🏻🤱🏻🤱🏻🤱🏻🤱🏻🤱🏻 #blockedduct #cloggedduct #mastitis #milkblister #milkbleb #breastfeeding #chestfeeding #lactationsupport #sgmum #newmum #firsttimemum #sgmummies #postpartumdoula #postpartumconsultant #postpartumcare #postnatalcare #postnatalsupport #empowasg #empowayourmotherhood (at Singapore / Singapura / 新加坡 / சிங்கப்பூர்) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpxTKL_SKMx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

How to Dress My Baby In the Winter Months - Happy Baby Class

❄️ Keeping your baby comfortable in colder weather requires extra time, extra layers and extra patience. ❄️ As they say, "There's no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing." ❄️ The key to dressing a baby appropriately for cold weather is layering. Babies are less able to regulate their body temperatures, so they’re more vulnerable to the cold. In fact, babies lose most of their heat through their heads, so make sure to use a hat to keep them warm. 👉 Follow our advice in the post to help keep your baby warm during winter.

This is a time of healing and transitioning All births have an adjustment period, even the smoothest, least traumatic, most empowering births end with a new baby and a new mum that need to adjust to each other, and adjust to a new world, with both of them finding their place in it So New Mums should try to focus on the bigger picture during their confinement period and I promise that a lot of the small stuff, that can become big if not kept in check, won't even be a question 1️⃣ This is a time for new mums to bond with their baby 2️⃣ This is a time for new mums to use their body to help their baby recover and transition 3️⃣ This is a time for new mums to use their babies natural reflexes to help the mothers body, mind and spirit recover and transition WHAT DOES THIS MEAN IN PRACTICE? Lots and lots and lots of cuddles, skin to skin, feeding and sleeping If this natural rhythmn of cuddles, skin to skin, feeding and sleeping is interrupted because a new mum is finding any aspect difficult, and if the small stuff is becoming too big to handle, then reach out to people that can help. Contact Kathy to find out the best resources and referrals in Singapore for: Postpartum Support Lactation Advice Pain Nutrition Sleep So let's recap and summarise - NEW MUMS ARE MEANT TO SPEND THEIR CONFINEMENT PERIOD 🤗 Cuddling 👶🏼 Skin to Skin 🤱🏻 Feeding 😴 Sleeping and new mums are not meant to be doing much else because these are the things that help both mum and baby heal and transition from a life in the womb to life in the real world This is time for transition - New mums need and deserve space and grace!
