Breastfeeding doesn’t stop for holidays — and neither does support 💗

The Breastfeeding Network Helpline is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, because support matters at every feed, day or night.

Over the Christmas and holiday period, rates of mastitis can rise due to changes in routine, missed or delayed feeds, travel, extra stress, and less access to usual support. If something doesn’t feel right, early advice can make all the difference.

You’re never bothering anyone, and you’re never alone — help is always just a call away. 🎄✨

Please use the helpline or head to The Breastfeeding Networks website for information.

Have a wonderful break and remember to look after yourself as well as your family.

The holidays can be joyful—and a little overwhelming—especially for new parents balancing little ones and big family expectations. 💫

Remember: setting boundaries isn’t selfish, it’s caring. Saying “no” to one more visit or “yes” to quiet time at home helps you show up with love (and sanity!) where it matters most.

This Christmas, protect your peace, honor your limits, and make space for the moments that truly matter. ❤️🎄

Have a wonderful break

So lucky to have been a part of this magical evening and listen to and share how we can all shape postpartum in the future

Alongside , we brought together practitioners specialising in postpartum care and asked one simple question: how can we work together to do better?

The answer was clear.

Postpartum care isn’t just physical.

It’s mental, emotional, and deeply human.

And it can’t sit in silos.

When medicine, holistic health, and mental health come together, families are supported as a whole, not just treated for symptoms.

This is what multidisciplinary care looks like.

Because the dream?

A team that works together, so no family has to navigate postpartum alone.

We all have moments when we feel dysregulated — even as adults.

So it’s unrealistic to expect children to regulate their emotions before they’ve learned how.

Children need a safe space and a safe person where they can express big feelings and feel supported.

This is called co-regulation 🤍

Children aren’t able to self-regulate — and we shouldn’t expect them to — until they’ve experienced co-regulation first.

➡️ So how do we co-regulate? ⬅️

🩷 Learn about the fight-flight response when children experience big emotions
(check out our reel on “flipping our lids”)
🩷 Support your own regulation — what helps you stay calm when your child is having a tantrum or big feelings?
🩷 Get down to their level
🩷 Use a calm, loving tone
🩷 Introduce a mindful toolkit: reading, hugging, dancing, meditation, listening to a favourite song… try different things to see what works for your child

If you become dysregulated, it’s okay to step away and do what you need to reset — scream into a pillow, have a hot drink, eat something sugary, or ask someone else to step in and support.

Big feelings are tricky for everyone. Be kind to yourself, and reach out for help when you need it 🤍

Save this, and share with a friend 💫

If you feel like motherhood changed you in ways no one warned you about, you’re not imagining it.

Postpartum is not just physical recovery.
It is a deep biological and neurological shift.
Hormones drop rapidly.
The brain rewires for constant caregiving and threat detection.
Sleep deprivation keeps the nervous system in survival mode.

Many mothers don’t struggle because they are weak.
They struggle because their body and brain are doing exactly what they are designed to do.

Nothing is wrong with you.
This is adaptation, not failure.
We maybe just weren't prepared for it.

What do you think? Did you feel that shift?
Can we now label POSTPARTUM IS FOREVER?!

This workshop is for families with little ones over 4 months and run by the incredible

Nicky will guide you through the key reasons children wake at night and what you can do to support more restful sleep.

Maternal Wellness....

I will listen, validate and support women in any stage of their parenting journey. How you feel doesn't only impact you, but your relationships too. Finding your voice, sharing your experience and connection are key to maintaining your own health.

and I have known each other since before children. We had daughters 9 years ago, only 3 months apart. Our parenting journeys have been very different, neither have been easy and we have both learnt a lot about ourselves and how to support other women during this time.

These photos are filled with joy, but also sorrow. Times where we felt uncertain, lonely and trying to navigate who we now were.

Overstimulation
Feeling touched out
Loss of identityi
Loneliness
Anxiety
Depression
Fatigue
Physical pain
Rage

But friendship, warmth and understanding is there. Connection is key to everything...

Robyn says: I loved meeting other new mums when my daughter was little, and spending time together. Speaking about how we were coping. The connections felt like a lot of relief. It was I think my first glimpses of the kinship that’s available between humans. A depth of mutual respect and love that’s more normal now!

We would love for you to join Robyn and I at our Parent Table get together and discussion on Maternal Wellness.
We'll be honest, open and empathetic.
Come and just listen and learn some tools to support you or come and share your story

Babies + children welcome
Open to anyone who is a parent, no matter what age your child is now!

Have you thought about using baby massage techniques to ease trapped wind in your baby?

Run your fingers in a clockwise direction, using the belly button as a centre point

Always do at least 30 mins after a feed and only on awake babies

Always check in with your baby to see how they are feeling and how they react to the firmness of your massage

Give it a go!
