12.01.2022 Often a fever has an important role to play in the health of your child. Suppressing a mild fever can disrupt a necessary process of healing and prolong the illness. Rest and time are the greatest healers.

11.01.2022 Motherhood 101 - Baby Massage Class today in Officer, Berwick. Thank you to Kayla for hosting your Mother's Group of 10 Mums and their 3 month old Babies, we all had a great time!! A very relaxed class of massage, baby reflexology and education on teething and issues with breastfeeding thrown in. Mums were also able to share their stories and receive support from the Group! Wish I was a new Mum again, what a lovely bunch...

09.01.2022 Dr Hannah Woolhouse, psychologist wrote an article for The Age called "Looking After Number One." I totally agree with everything she claims but not how to solve the problem - MCHN are already over stretched!!! There are Community Midwives waiting to help service these new parents - we need to get the word out there. We are ready and able to help.

08.01.2022 The beauty of breast feeding

08.01.2022 This lovely film shows different women choosing different births. The experience of making the film changed how the film maker thought she would like to give birth. What do you think? How would you like to give birth and why?

07.01.2022 Motivational Quotes for New Mothers...Remember this..

06.01.2022 The insurance for home birth issue needs to be resolved. The current situation is not fair to women or their carers. Please sign and lets push for a resolution to the issue.

06.01.2022 Maternity Reflexology - what is it? who should have it? why? Its definitely more than a simple foot massage, its a foot treatment, because we can work areas of the body that need improvement in blood flow, and when the symptoms of pregnancy have made you feel unbalanced, unwell and overwhelmed. It can also be used as labour prep, with induction techniques and acupressure. Perfect if you really don't like needles!! Most mothers can have Reflexology, irrespective of any medical... issues, unless they have complicated high blood pressure, very unstable diabetes, or blood clotting problems. Why? It is just THE BEST TREATMENT for all Mums to be or parents of Newborns. What I love most about it is that is absolutely amazing when it comes to reducing fears around conceiving or birth, and when there is stress, anxiety and depression. Or for couples who are just overwhelmed by the whole process. Just like your baby - human touch is important during your pregnancy, it helps you not only connect with your baby but the real you! Mothers often ask me: "why cannot I go into labour?" My Answer: "Are you holding on too tight? Can you truly relax, release and let go?" If you cannot baby wont come. They wait until they know you are ready, are giving some signs that it is time. They want you to be ready to RECEIVE them. "If you are still worrying about the birth then you cannot be ready for me to be born. I need to know that you are ready to love, hold feed me and tell me stories of what is to come". Focus on that Dear One, and let the birth take care of itself. You cannot control it, its already been decided. HAND OVER the power to your baby, he or she knows the way. Let baby lead... See more
