Hello March!

We are so excited to be on this new phase of growth! Look for more exciting announcements coming soon, and if your in the foothills of the N GA Mountains or surrounding area remember to shoot LCA or Uplift Pelvic Health, LLC a DM to get on the email list!

Okay Jasper moms… we did a thing this morning at cofee. 😌

We’re starting a mom’s support group.

Between the two of us (pelvic floor PT + lactation consultant), we’ve seen how isolating pregnancy and postpartum can feel.

Feeding questions.
Body changes.
Healing.
Sleep.
Emotions.
All of it.

So we’re creating a space where you can show up exactly as you are.

Pregnant? Come.
Postpartum? Come.
Not sure if what you’re experiencing is “normal”? Definitely come.

Babies welcome. Always. 💙
Who’s in?

If you’d like to be on the list for details, message me and I’ll add you. --Cathy

Skin to skin is simple, it is putting a mostly bare baby (diaper only) against the chest of the parent. Skin to skin can be done any time from moments after birth to the days and weeks that follow. Skin to skin can calm a fussy baby, soothe a frustrated toddler, or provide comfort when your little one is sick.

Knowing your baby's stomach size is important to know so you can determine how much the baby needs to intake in each feeding. Day one the baby stomach is around the size of a cherry. The baby will want to be fed more frequently in small quantities. Day 3 the baby's stomach has grown into a size of a walnut. One week the baby's stomach is the size of an apricot. In one month, the baby's stomach is the size of a large egg. The baby will be fed less frequently and in larger quantities. As your baby grows the intake and frequencies will change. Talk to your healthcare provider or IBCLC (Internationally Board-Certified Lactation Consultant) to know how much and how frequently your baby should be feeding for their age and stomach size.

November is Prematurity Awareness Month with World Prematurity Day celebrated on November 17th each year.
In observance of this day, LCA wanted to take the time to recognize all families who have had a premature birth. Prematurity accounts for one in 10 births world wide each year.
Families, we recognize the challenges that a preterm birth brings. We hope that you will join us in raising awareness in the specialized care and commitment that preterm babies may need.
Please share your pictures and stories with us!
