Did you know that your baby needs tummy time every day?
 
Tummy time is important as it:
 
·      helps to develop the necessary muscles in their backs, especially the upper back and neck
·      helps your baby to develop their motor skills and encourages them to roll over and crawl
·      varies the position your baby lies in, which can also help prevent head flattening (plagiocephaly).
 
How long should my baby do tummy time each day?
 
Start by doing a few minutes at a time, several times a day. Then you can try longer tummy time sessions, building up to a full hour in total per day. For example, you can try 6 sessions of 10 minutes.
 
 What can I do if my baby hates tummy time?
 
·      Try short sessions. Aim for just 2 minutes and work your way up
·      Keep them entertained with toys.  You could use brightly coloured toys, books or a baby mirror for them to look at.
·      Eye contact. Get down to your baby’s eye level. They love seeing your face.

Endometriosis Awareness Month🎗

Did you know that Endometriosis affects 1 in 10 women but shockingly takes on average 7 years to be diagnosed as it is commonly dismissed as 'just bad period pains'

Endometriosis is a condition when tissue similar to the uterine lining (the endometrium) grows OUTSIDE the uterus causing lesions, adhesions, ovarian and other cysts. There is currently no known cause or cure for the condition.  

Endometriosis can be debilitating and can require surgery for diagnosis and treatment.

Symptoms include: agonising pelvic pain (typically during your period but can occur at any time of your cycle), nausea, vomiting, migraines, digestive problems and bloating, fatigue to name a few.
