Preparing for birth like the athlete you are means training your entire system - not just one area! 🏃‍♀️

At Birth Acadiana Chiropractic, we love helping local mamas understand how their body works as an integrated system to create the optimal environment for baby’s arrival. When everything is aligned and functioning together, birth often flows more smoothly.

Every mama deserves to feel confident and supported in her body during this incredible journey. That’s why we take a comprehensive approach to birth preparation - because you and your baby deserve evidence-based, whole-body care.

🌟 One thing I don’t share often enough is what happens after those first baby visits.

Most families bring their little one in for things like constipation, breastfeeding struggles, colic, torticollis, or overall fussiness. But here’s the part many parents don’t realize — care often continues beyond that first concern.

I love working proactively with babies through monthly wellness check-ins. Their brains and bodies are growing so quickly, and catching things early makes all the difference.

✨ What does this look like?
• Milestone check-ins (at least until they’re walking — and some families stay much longer)
• Support after big falls, ear infections, or sickness
• Tips for at-home care between visits
• Conversations about sleep, feeding, and development

As pediatric chiropractors, we’re trained to notice patterns and tension in the body before they turn into bigger issues. In my office, parents don’t just leave with an adjusted baby — they leave with tools, clarity, and peace of mind. 💛

Pregnancy comes with plenty of advice — but here are the things I don’t always agree with (and why my moms are glad I said so):

👉🏼 You don’t need to wear yourself out with 90-minute routines.
👉🏼 Posture cues like “chest up” are outdated.
👉🏼 Pain in pregnancy isn’t something you just have to live with.
👉🏼 Baby being head down is only part of the positioning picture.
👉🏼 More stretching isn’t always better — your body needs balance, not extremes.

✨ The truth? Pregnancy prep isn’t about doing everything you see on TikTok or Instagram.
It’s about doing the right things for YOUR body — so you can feel better now and set yourself up for an easier birth later.

At Birth Acadiana Chiropractic, that’s exactly what we help you figure out:
✔️ Balancing your body
✔️ Calming your nervous system
✔️ Creating the best environment for baby to find their way earthside

Most women think birth prep is ONLY about the pelvis, but here’s what I know from working with hundreds of pregnant moms: your WHOLE body is part of the puzzle. 🧩

Real birth prep means looking at your body as one big connected system. In my practice, I focus on:

✨ Upper Body & Breathing - How your ribs and shoulders move affects how well your core and pelvis work together

✨ Core Muscles - The deep muscles that support your spine need to work as a team, not alone

✨ Pelvis Position - How your pelvis sits creates the best space for baby to move through

✨ Pelvic Floor Control - It’s not about being strong - it’s about knowing when to tighten AND when to relax

✨ How You Move Daily - The way you move every day teaches your body what to do during labor

When your spine moves well, everything else works better too.

Just like I wouldn’t only treat your back where it hurts, birth prep shouldn’t only focus on your pelvis. We need to look at your whole body from your ribs down to your pelvis!

When we help your whole body work better, we’re not just getting ready for birth - we’re setting you up for an easier recovery and better health for life! 💪

When this sweet little guy came in, he was only a few months old — but already dealing with so much.
✨ Increased muscle tone that made him stiff and uncomfortable
✨ Constant gas and reflux (sometimes with wet burps that never made it out)
✨ Trouble sleeping and feeding
✨ Arching his back during and after feeds
✨ Bowel movements that were a struggle

Mom had already done everything right:
💛 Tongue tie release
💛 Daily massages
💛 Reflux medication
💛 Pediatric OT support
… but she still had that gut feeling something wasn’t quite right.

Fast forward — he’s eating comfortably, pooping regularly, and those tense, restless days are finally giving way to happy baby smiles.

Sometimes it takes the right combination of care, timing, and listening to a mama’s intuition to help a baby’s little body find its rhythm again.

📍 If your little one is struggling with feeding, digestion, sleep, or comfort issues, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Book a consultation online today to explore gentle solutions tailored to your baby’s needs.

Clicking, Fussiness, One-Sided Nursing…
If you’ve noticed any of these signs during feeding, your baby might be experiencing body tension that’s making nursing harder than it has to be.

These symptoms can point to structural or nervous system stress from birth that hasn’t fully resolved—and no, it’s not just a latch problem. Often, we find that something deeper is going on in the body.

Here’s what we often see in babies who benefit from gentle bodywork:

🔍 Latching Issues
• Shallow, painful latch
• Slipping off the breast
• Trouble staying latched

🔍 Feeding Behavior
• Only nursing well on one side
• Clicking or smacking sounds
• Frustration at the breast

🔍 Tension Signs
• Head favoring one side
• Arching or pulling away
• Fussiness during feeds despite hunger

✨ Gentle chiropractic care and CranioSacral Therapy can help release tension, improve comfort, and support more effective feeding.

You don’t have to guess—or go it alone.

"Dr. Alayna, how do babies get this way? Why does this happen?"

This is one of the most common questions I get from mamas during initial visits. 🌙

The truth is, birth is intense—even the gentlest births put physical stress on your baby's developing spine and nervous system. It's not anyone's fault, it's not something you did wrong, and it's more common than you might think.

But those 3am questions are so valid: "Is this normal?" "Will it get easier?" "Am I failing somehow?"

Mama, your instincts are telling you something important. Sometimes feeding challenges aren't about your technique or effort—they're about structure and function. And that's exactly what we're here to help with.

Whether you're wondering if this is just "how it is" or you know in your gut that something feels off—TRUST THAT FEELING! Feeding your baby shouldn't leave you both frustrated and exhausted.

Swipe through to see the signs that might indicate your little one could benefit from gentle structural support. There are answers, and there's a whole community ready to help you both thrive. 💙

✨Celebrating Haley’s Journey✨

This sweet mama started coming in before she was even pregnant — working through shoulder and neck tension and learning stretches she could do at home and at work to feel better between visits. (IYKYK that hair dresser life👀)

She continued care throughout her second pregnancy, and this time... things were different in the best way.

Here’s what she shared:
⭐️ Pregnancy symptoms were way more manageable
⭐️ Birth was easier and quicker than with her first
⭐️ She felt supported and prepared in a whole new way

And then came the sweetest update:
🍼 Baby girl arrived healthy and beautiful
⏱️ Labor lasted only 4 hours
💪 Pushed for just 4 minutes
🫶 Scheduled induction that went so smoothly

It’s been such a gift to walk this journey — from pre-pregnancy all the way to this beautiful birth and postpartum for both her and baby girl. We’re cheering you on in this new season and soaking up that new baby joy with you 💕
