This wasn’t a ‘me’ decision, this was my sister’s 😂

When that same sister gets so sick of this damn thing, to the point where she convinces my 4yo to bring it home and hide it from me - you bet your bottom dollar I’ll be making this vid 🙊

8 weeks is the truely the Wild West 😢

Okay so SO much brain development is happening at this age - they are literally evolving right in front of your eyes!

If you’re losing your mind - put your baby in a safe space (bassinet…other adult) and go check the letterbox. Truely a great circuit breaker.

If you have a fussy fussy baby from 4-11pm then congrats, you have a perfectly typical baby 😇 I’m crossing my fingers and toes that things settle asap.

Based in Melbourne? I can come to you for an in-home consult! Growth and development checks, hit me with a list of 20 ‘Is this normal?’ questions, feeding support, mental health and wellbeing support for you, the list goes on! More details about that on my website ❤️

Listening to the audio of this made me shiver 😂

Okay so I totally get how important learning to swim is. I just think that it should never be underestimated just how much of our soul we are sacrificing to get through the whole experience each and every week 😶‍🌫️

I could explode when I hear this. This ‘advice’ has been given to far too many women I speak to, to not put this out there.

A 6 week paediatric post-birth check is a wonderful opportunity to perform a thorough assessment of a newborn baby, provide reassurance and support to parents about their behaviour. Not take it as an opportunity to guilt trip new parents into buying a sleep book or a program.

The idea that a 6 week old ‘should be sleeping through by now’ isn’t based on any evidence or understanding of newborn physiology or behaviour.

If you’ve been told this and you need to hold your baby to sleep, they wake up at night frequently or they catnap during the day - you have not done ANYTHING wrong. If only we doubted sales techniques as much as we doubted ourselves early on in newborn life 🤦‍♀️

The must-knows 👇🏻

On Monday 27 July, Australia will be conducting a nationwide test of the new AusAlert emergency warning system.

At the scheduled time, compatible mobile phones, tablets and smart watches will vibrate, play a loud siren-like sound for around 10 seconds, and display a test message.

🚨This alert will sound even if your device is on silent or Do Not Disturb.

Test times:
• Victoria, NSW, ACT, Queensland & Tasmania: 2:00 pm AEST
• South Australia, Northern Territory & Broken Hill: 1:30 pm ACST
• Western Australia: 12:00 pm AWST (AusAlert)

While this test is designed to help keep Australians safe during future emergencies, I also wanted to share it because advance warning is especially important for anyone who has a concealed or secondary device for their safety.

If you or someone you know has a phone that must remain hidden:
- Turn the device off or placing it in aeroplane mode before the scheduled test
- Keep it off or on aeroplane mode for 24 hours

Sharing this with your mum friends and family ❤️
