Gurgles to Giggles ✨Certified Infant Reflux Specialist✨

Helping find the true cause of your baby's reflux symptoms, USA

As an infant reflux consultant, I am passionate about providing support & comfort to parents as they navigate the challenges of reflux & colic symptoms experienced by their little ones. It breaks my heart to see babies in discomfort & parents feeling overwhelmed & helpless. I understand how important it is to address these issues quickly and effectively, & I am here to help you identify any underl

ying causes & provide guidance on how to improve symptoms. I am committed to working with you to find the best solutions for your baby to bring comfort & joy to both your baby, & your family. I am an osteopath by trade, with a strong interest in treating all things pregnancy, post-partum, & babies. I worked in Cambridge, UK as a registered osteopath for 9 years. I loved working alongside other healthcare practitioners - physiotherapists, podiatrist, acupuncturist, nutritionist - all of whom had something to contribute to the overall health & well-being of our patients. When my husband’s job gave us a chance to live & work in America, although I was unable to continue to treat osteopathically, the opportunity came to try & begin helping families in a different way – less hands-on therapy & more of a listening & supportive role.

✨ Clear Spit Up ✨

❔ Is clear spit up considered baby reflux?
❔ Is clear spit up normal?

There is a reason for their clear spit up, which could look like bubbles around the mouth too. We have to look at the factors involved & other symptoms to understand the most likely cause.

Is it common? Yes.
Is it normal? Depends what the cause is.

Is your baby doing this?

✨ Finding The Root Cause ✨

"It's just reflux"
"They'll grow out of it"
"It's just a phase"
"Have you tried reflux medication?"
"Some babies just cry more"
"Have you tried cutting out dairy?"
"Have you switched formulas?"
"We didn't have allergies when I was a kid"

Do these sound familiar?

Unsolicited advice, anecdotal stories, unsupported claims about what might help...these things are not helpful to a new parent that's already struggling!

What you need is someone who will sit & listen to everything you have to say; the good, the bad, the ugly. All of it. Someone who will care about you too, not just what's happening with your baby, because you are now a duo that deserves to be heard & supported.

If you want to really help your baby be more comfortable again, help them learn to soothe & settle, sleep better, be reflux free, you have to find the root cause first. It's not just the reflux, it's about how the whole body is compensating too.

If you don't know why it's happening, you won't know how to change it.

If you're tired of being fobbed off, gaslit, feeling your questions & concerns are being dismissed by the providers you're seeing, find a new one!

If you've stayed with me this far, please know that if we work together, we can & will get to the bottom of your baby's discomfort, their symptoms like reflux or colic, & I will listen to every detail. I know how difficult motherhood can be, & I understand how hard you will fight to help your baby.

You are not alone, I promise. I'm here if you need a safe space 🫶................

✨ Free Webinar On Postpartum Depression ✨

Postpartum depression (PPD) affects more of us than we ever let you know, because mothers are so good at disguising how we truly feel & how lonely it can be. This doesn't just affect mothers though, partners, fathers, those who have loved & lost can also experience symptoms of PD, but it presents differently in all of us.

It's not just about getting the right support & treatment, it's also about being brave enough to say "no, I'm not ok" & not feel guilty about it or like a failure as a parent.

It's also about educating ourselves on the signs & symptoms of perinatal mood & anxiety disorders (PMADs), like PPD, not just for ourselves but to help those around us too.

What if you could be aware of the signs BEFORE birth so you can have a village in place to support you better?

This free webinar, The Postpartum Wellness Circle, is open to mums, dads & partners. Join us on May 12th from 7:00–8:30 PM for a virtual Q&A session with Leslie.

✨ Is It Actually CMPA? ✨

May is Asthma & Allergy Awareness Month, & my recent poll asking if you wanted to know more was unanimous! So, here is the first of a few food sensitivity-related posts & stories that I think will be useful.

Scroll through to read more about CMPA.

Does any of it sound familiar?

While cow's milk protein is one of the top common allergens for infants & children, it does not mean it's the only one to look at.

A true allergy involves their body's own unique immune system response, meaning every baby will have a different set of symptoms & reactions to the allergen. I recommend you keep this in mind when you're looking for answers to your baby's reflux & other symptoms that you're seeing.

✨ Finding Someone Better ✨

If you feel in your gut that something doesn't feel right, that your baby is crying for a reason, that their discomfort isn't just something to "wait & see" or "grow out of"...then here is your sign!

Any provider that is supporting you & your baby should make you feel, at the bare minimum:
🧡 Seen
💜 Fully heard
💚 Validated
🩷 Trustworthy
💙 Like your concerns are worth addressing

What you should not feel is:
❌ Dismissed
❌ Gas lit
❌ Not taken seriously
❌ Fob you off with medications
❌ Unable to ask questions/say what you're thinking

If any of the latter ring true for you, don't be afraid to ask more questions or consider changing providers. It is completely acceptable to find a provider that you trust with your baby's health. Give yourself permission to do what's best for your child, not what's society pressures us to feel we should do.

YOU know your baby best.
YOU are their best advocate.
YOU have the best connection with them.

If you feel your mum instincts telling you that something isn't right & your pediatrician isn't on board, you don't have to stick around. Ask friends, family, other mums at group meets who they see & how they feel their care is, because you & your baby deserve better...........

✨ It's Never Just One Thing ✨

Something I am saying a lot these days, is how we cannot just look at their reflux in isolation. Reflux is more than just spit up, it's about the other associated symptoms you might not realise are connected, like hiccups, skin rashes, congestion or constipation.

But it's also how we identify if there's more to the picture than meets the eye. For example, is it aerophagia (excessive air intake during feeds) that's causing the reflux, or is it the often troublesome ingredients in their formula milk that's causing digestive discomfort like painful trapped gas, bloating, frequent hiccups & difficulty pooping daily? Sometimes, it can be both!

The body tells a story that starts at conception & implantation, right through pregnancy, labour & delivery, through to now. It undergoes huge transformation & rapid growth, trying to build a musculoskeletal, immune, endocrine, digestive & nervous system that can regulate it all, so it's important that we give the entire body our consideration when resolving their reflux. It all matters. Body tension can impact so many things!

That being said, the answers can be simple for some babies, & more complicated for others. A lot of these symptoms are really common, but it doesn't mean they just have to "wait & grow out of it".

Recognising all of the symptoms your baby is experiencing, including body tension & imbalances, allows us to fully understand what is happening, so we can choose the best strategies, tools & techniques to support them back to reflux free.

It's so much more than just reflux 🌻

✨ Parent Feedback ✨

Cow's milk protein intolerance (CMPI) & cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA) has been a common topic in several client calls this past month or so.

CMPA is one of the most commonly diagnosed food allergies, causing discomfort in approximately 3% of infants aged 0-6 months. While it predominantly affects formula-fed babies, it can also affect breastfed babies too.

These proteins, like caesin & whey, are complex proteins found in dairy products such as cow's milk & are difficult for the immature infant digestive system to process.

Although there are some typical signs & symptoms of food sensitivity in little ones, each of us will have a different reaction based on our own individual immune & digestive systems, making it all the more important to look at their whole body & gather as much information about it as possible to find the root cause.

Reflux affects so many babies & cutting out dairy is one of the first things a parent hears - but this is only useful if a true food sensitivity has been diagnosed & properly addressed. That's what I am here to help you & your little one with 🙏

✨ Your Village Is Everything ✨

Motherhood is the hardest thing I've ever had the pleasure of doing.

It was, however, made somewhat easier by the people I intentionally surrounded myself with; family, friends, new mums I met at baby groups, & the people that could help me understand & decipher what was making my baby so uncomfortable.

There are many things that are normal newborn behaviours, but plenty that are not. Identifying what they are trying to tell you with their cries, movement patterns or feeding challenges, for example, all help show us ways in which we can support our babies as they grow.

I want to be part of your postpartum & newborn village. I want to know your birth story, listen to all of your highs & lows, & hear all of your concerns. Every baby’s journey is different & their symptoms are unique to them. I believe the body should be nurtured as a whole, promoting overall health & function. After all, babies should be able to thrive, not simply survive.

I hope to get to know you & your little one, understand who you are & how I can best support you in the coming days, weeks or months. Your baby can be reflux free, happy & healthy. You are not alone, & you certainly don't have to do it alone either 🫶......................

✨ FREE DOWNLOADABLE TRACKER ✨

There are so many things that might make your little one unsettled, with reflux or spit up seen commonly in the early months of life. But I see babies that are 5 or 6 months & older that are still having huge difficulties with feeding, sleeping, trapped gas, hard to soothe & struggling with solid foods as they're gagging, choking & being termed 'picky eaters' or 'fussy'.

There are also many parents being told that their baby will "grow out of it" or prescribed reflux medications for their young babies without much information about why their baby is so unsettled in the first place.

Reflux is a symptom, not a diagnosis. The best way to resolve your baby's reflux is to identify ALL of the symptoms they have so we can find the root cause.

You can continue to treat the symptoms & chase answers online for days, weeks or even months, but if you don't first understand why they're getting reflux, it's difficult to truly know how to help them be more comfortable again.

This free resource for parents of babies struggling with reflux, silent reflux or colic is easily downloaded & printed for easy use at home!
