I just watched Hocus Pocus for the millionth time. So in that theme I want all the pregnant mommas. So tag a pregnant friend. But also we will be talking about all things breastfeeding, behavior, sleep, picky eating, acne, whatever you can think of we can talk about it. Will have games for the kids and prizes for everyone. Hope to see you all there.

🧪Science rocks. 🧬Science protects me. 🧫Science protects my family. 🔬Science protects our community. Vaccines 💉 are proven good science.

Today the girls and I got our Influenza and Covid vaccines.
Here’s why I got mine today. This year I am doing my office flu clinics in October as we are not yet seeing flu in our local area and I want protection later into spring. However, I am traveling on a plane to New York in 2 weeks and I want to be protected before that trip. So base your yearly vaccination on your life. Do you need it now or ok to wait till October. You decide but please decide that you need it. It’s so easy. They even have flu mist (nasal flu vaccine) for those that are 2+ and wouldn’t get the needle vaccine. The regular flu vaccine is for everyone 6 months and older. High dose for those grandparents over 65.
For covid I don’t recommend waiting as it’s going around now. I do plan to offer my extra doses to the community as I feel that I’ve been with many of you through this whole thing I can’t stop now.
Hit me with questions. I’m here to help you feel as confident in your decision to vaccinate as I am.

🎆 FIREWORK SAFETY FOR KIDS 🎇

Im all about family fun but every year, ERs see thousands of firework-related injuries in children that could have been prevented. Let’s keep this 4th of July fun AND safe! Aka don’t lose any fingers or eyes. Please for me.

✅ Safety Tips for Parents:
👀 Supervise at all times — even sparklers can burn at 2,000°F
🧯 Keep water nearby — a hose or bucket is a must
📏 Keep a safe distance — back up after lighting and never relight a dud
🚫 Skip homemade fireworks — only use legal, age-appropriate options
👶 Little ones? Glow sticks > sparklers!

💡 Did you know? Sparklers cause 1 in 4 firework injuries in kids under 5.

🎉 Let’s make sure the only thing lighting up this weekend is the sky — not a trip to the ER. Wishing you a safe and joyful Independence Day! 🇺🇸💙

Today is my birthday 🎂
They look different over the years but I’m so thankful for all that I have achieved. Today Lily said happy 24th birthday to make me feel good but honestly I don’t think I would go back to 24. I have earned all these years. I have set goals and I have achieved them. I will continue to set new goals and I will conquer them.
Next stop for my first full marathon.

As a pediatrician, I care deeply about your child’s health—and their future. One of the most loving things you can do for your family is to have clear family planning documents in place. This was one of the first things we did when we moved to Cali.

These include a will, guardianship plans, medical directives, and powers of attorney. While no one likes to think about “what ifs,” planning ahead gives you control, peace of mind, and protection for your children should the unexpected happen.
If you own your home a family trust is nice.

Talk to a trusted attorney, and revisit your plans regularly as your family grows. I have a fire safe box at home I keep my binder in. I asked for mine for Xmas from the in-laws one year 😉

The two people I would recommend the most are
