If you’re wondering if your baby might benefit from chiropractic care…
start here 👇

1️⃣ Head tilt or preference
Always looking one way? Fighting one side when feeding? That’s not just a “quirk”—it can be tension in the neck.

2️⃣ Rigid, arching backward
That stiff, push-back, can’t-get-comfy feeling (often labeled “just reflux”) → I always look at the nervous system here.

3️⃣ Eat. Sleep. P**p. 🚼
These are all controlled by the rest + digest side of the nervous system.

If your baby is:
• struggling to feed
• not sleeping well
• having poop/gas issues

…it can be a sign they’re stuck in more of a stress state.

If you’re noticing these patterns consistently, it’s worth a second look. DM ‘Baby’ for more info.

Fun week in our Denton, TX office!

This stage is BIG for brain and body development.

Here’s what we’re watching for 👇

• Sitting independently
• Getting into/out of sitting
• Rolling both ways easily
• Starting to crawl (or at least trying!)
• Reaching, grabbing, transferring toys
• Babbling + responding to sounds
• Bringing hands + feet to midline

But here’s the most important part👇

It’s not just what they’re doing… it’s how their nervous system is organizing it.

Are movements smooth or stiff?
One-sided or balanced?
Do they get frustrated easily or explore confidently?

Because milestones aren’t just physical, they’re a window into brain development.

If something feels off, trust that instinct.
Early support makes a huge difference 🤍

And if everything is going great? This is your reminder to celebrate it 🎉

You’re doing such a good job, mama.

You don’t have to be miserable your whole pregnancy. 🤍

Somewhere along the way, we started believing that pain, exhaustion, and just “getting through it” is normal for 9 months.

But it doesn’t have to be that way.

This mama is 39 weeks… and feeling good.
Moving well. Sleeping better. Enjoying these last days instead of just surviving them.

When your nervous system is supported, your body adapts better.
Less tension. Better balance. More ease.

Pregnancy is still a big season, your body is doing a lot. But it doesn’t have to feel like something you just endure.

You deserve to feel good while you grow your baby. ✨

If you’re in the middle of pregnancy and want a different experience, I’m here for you… from one mama to another.

Mine was night sweats… and then shivers.

With my first four babies, I would wake up completely soaked. Like full-on drenched from sweating. No one warned me about that part of postpartum.

It’s actually hormonal, your body is shifting a lot after birth.

But with my fifth baby, it was totally different.

Right after she was born, I had uncontrollable, teeth-chattering shivers for about an hour. I couldn’t stop it.

Also hormonal. Also normal.
And I didn’t have night sweats with her at all.

Every birth, every postpartum… can look different.

What about you? What surprised you the most? Comment below!

Hills I will always stand on after years of caring for pregnant mamas, newborns, and growing kids 🤍

✨ A due date is a guess, not a deadline.
Your body and baby are working together. Labor doesn’t run on a calendar.

✨ Where you feel safe during birth matters.
Feeling supported, heard, and calm changes how your nervous system experiences labor. A team you truly trust and an environment you feel comfortable and safe in makes a world of a difference.

✨ Birth is a big neurological event.
For BOTH mom and baby. Tension patterns and stress responses can begin here, which is why early support matters.

✨ Developmental sequence matters.
Milestones aren’t a race… but the order helps build strong brain-body connections.

✨ Containers are tools — not lifestyle.
Swings, seats, loungers, and car seats are helpful at times, but babies need daily freedom to move.

✨ A stressed mama’s nervous system affects baby.
Regulation is contagious. So is overwhelm. Supporting moms supports babies.

✨ The nervous system controls more than most families realize. Sleep. Digestion. Behavior. Motor development. Emotional regulation.

✨ Movement is brain development.
Every roll, crawl, reach, and climb is literally wiring the brain.

Because pregnancy, birth, and early childhood shape more than moments… they shape our nervous systems and our trajectory. 🤍

Did you know chiropractic care during pregnancy has been associated with shorter labor times, by as much as 25% for first time moms, more for second plus. 🤍

When the nervous system is supported and the pelvis is moving well, baby has more room to get into an ideal position and the body can function the way it was designed to.

Pregnancy care isn’t just about back pain relief.
It’s about preparing your body for birth.

If you’re pregnant and want to feel more comfortable, more confident, and more connected heading into labor. I’d love to support you.

DM PREGNANCY for more info.

Babywearing is basically the original weighted vest.

Not only does it keep your little one close, it can also support:

• Core strength & posture – carrying baby activates deep stabilizing muscles
• Nervous system regulation – the gentle pressure + closeness helps calm both baby and mom
• Vestibular development for baby – baby experiences movement as you walk, bend, and go about your day
• Hands-free life – because moms still have a million things to do
• Bonding & connection – babies love being close to the sound of your voice and heartbeat

My go-to carrier is the LILLEbaby Complete Airflow — supportive, breathable, and easy to wear for longer stretches.

Turns out moms were ahead of the trend all along. 😉

Tag a mama who basically lives in her baby carrier.
