Follow me — Cassie Shortsleeve, journalist & maternal health advocate of @dearsundaymotherhood & @twotruthsmotherhood — for pregnancy, postpartum, & motherhood writing, support, & education. Postpartum is the beginning and it’s also the end. Postpartum is the before and also the after. It is testing and temporary, happy and hard, tiring and trying, it is full of firsts and full of lasts. Postpartum is days and nights, and time spent doing everything and doing nothing. It is hormonal and holy, beautiful and tragic. It is a time of healing and growth. Postpartum is fast and slow, long and short, here then gone. Postpartum is a season of life and it’s also forever. #matrescence #postpartumsupport #fourthtrimester #thefourthtrimester #newmama #newmamalife #maternalmentalhealth #maternalmentalhealthawareness #maternalmentalhealthmatters

Motherhood changes all of us and it’s okay to miss our prekids life , where we have all the freedom in the world . Our new norm is taking care of children, having little free time, and getting limited amounts of sleep. The demands on we mothers is too much , we are expected to do it all because of this we lost our self identity. There’s no us anymore , we are just mothers !. Don’t feel guilty, mama when you ask for a break. Do some self care , meditation or some hobbies.

Hello and welcome, I'm so glad you're here! 👋💛 I'm Robin - certified pediatric sleep consultant, newborn nanny and small business owner of Maternal Moon. Although this page is fairly new, Maternal Moon has been around for 10 years now! While working as a newborn nanny, I've been sleep training for naps for over a decade. I've had many parents ask for nighttime sleep support, so I became a sleep consultant nearly a year ago. My focus is newborn through 18 months. Although I don't begin sleep training before four months, there's so much sleep shaping we can do to achieve healthy sleep habits right from the start. My sleep services are virtual, so I can help and support you, no matter where you are. I'm a proud mama of two, and am married to a retired firefighter. My daughter, 23, recently graduated with honors from Western Michigan. My son, 27, recently illustrated his first children's book! I'm from metro Detroit, moved to Westside Lansing last summer, and am a Michigan State grad (go green!) 💚 Fun fact: I was an extra on the show Seinfeld back in the early 90s, thanks to my good friend Heidi. It was my favorite show at the time; so much fun! What's a fun fact about you that you'd like to share?
Babies need to be on their tummies in order to go through the fundamental movement patterns (for example, raising the head, creeping, and crawling), which stimulate both sides of the brain. So much so that In 2020, The World Health Organisation recommended that non-mobile babies should spend at least 30 minutes on their tummies, spread throughout the day when awake. If you're the parent of a new baby that might be easier said than done! Some babies love tummy time, whilst others aren't so keen and take a while to get used to it. Here are some activities you can try, to encourage your baby to enjoy tummy time more: 1. Place a safety mirror or favourite toy a few inches from your baby’s head and call their attention to it. Your baby will lift their head and reach out in different directions, which develops the muscles needed for rolling over. 2. Place your baby on a colourful quilt with squeaky toys attached. Remove your baby's socks so he can get good traction on the play mat. 3. One of the best strategies is to keep your baby company on the floor. Coo, sing or make funny sounds to encourage them to lift their head. 4. Lie on your back and place your baby face down on your chest. Call his or her name to encourage them to raise their head to get a better look at you. 5. Place a rolled-up towel under your baby’s chest. This supported position allows your baby to lift their head & look around and improves focus. 6. Put your baby on his tummy over a large ball and hold them firmly while you gently rock the ball back and forth. Your baby will learn to shift their body weight, which improves balance and coordination. #babysensory #tummytimeactivities #tummytimefun #tummytimetips #babycare #babycaretips #newbabycare #tiredparentsclub #tiredparents #babytips #babytipsandtricks #firsttimemum #firsttimedad #firsttimeparents #newparent #newmama #newdad #mumandbabygroups #mumandbabytime #parentandbaby #newmummy #newmumma #newmumuk #newmums #newmumshub #newdaddy #wsmbabysensory

💫 Feedback 💫 Our gorgeous boy Sebastian was born on the 20th of March 2024, we had the best experience being under the care of the lighthouse team. My allocated midwife was Becka and she was amazing throughout my whole pregnancy and whenever I had a question or didn’t feel sure about something she would talk me through every single detail to make sure I understood what everything was, we couldn’t have asked for better. As for my labour, I had Jen and I honestly could not fault her on anything, thanks to the both of them I knew everything that could happen and all of the different outcomes we could’ve had. Jen was especially helpful in helping me to understand what all the different decisions in labour meant. She also explained to my boyfriend everything that was happening and made him feel very included by answering any questions he had, and talking us through every single thing that was happening. She did the whole thing with a smile on her face even if I was out of it 90% of the time I know I was just thinking of how appreciative I was to have her there supporting me. Becka and Jen also both came to check on us both after birth, even messaging me to see how we are all doing. You are both absolute godsends, will always appreciate everything you did for us ❤️ #feedback #birthchoices #supportivemidwives #continuityteam #youngmum #youngparents #youngdad #teenmum #teenpregnancy #youngfamily #families #empoweredwomenempowerwomen #empoweredbirth #continuityofcare #positivebirthstory #caseloading #supportivebirthteam #thelighthouseteammidwives #continuity #midwife #oxytocin #babylove #love #newborn #pregnancy #birth #breastfeeding #infantfeeding #newfamily #newmama

Are you prepared for the 4th trimester?? What is this mysterious 4th trimester - the first few months after baby’s arrival?

What goes on in those dark hours, when mothers are scrolling every forum looking for help for their colicy baby, or can’t understand why breastfeeding is so hard for her? While there has been much more information shared in recent years about the reality of postpartum, many moms still feel uninformed and unprepared for what they may face in the fourth trimester. Check out our blog for the best advice you’ll find to help you feel ready for the fourth trimester. 🤓 Mamas who have been there: What do you wish you had done to prepare for postpartum? . . . . . . . . . #iamnurtured #newmama #newmom #4thtrimester #fourthtrimester #postpartum #newborn #pregnancy #babybump #momtobe #mamatobe #momlife #postnatal #prenatal #selfcare #momhealth #postpartumhealth #postpartumwellness #postpartumnutrition #newnormal #postpartumbody #postpartumsupport #postpartumrecovery #postpartumjourney #postnatalsupplement #postnatalvitamin #prenatalvitamin #honestlymothering #realmom #postpartumprep
❤️ Frühchen brauchen ausschließlich Muttermilch ❤️ 👉 Die Vorteile der Muttermilch sind enorm! Sie gedeihen besser und sterben seltener an einer gefürchteten Darmentzündung (NEC). Immer mehr Kliniken in Deutschland richten Muttermilchbanken ein. Von den Erkrankten stirbt die Hälfte bis ein Drittel. Die Überlebenden haben oftmals lebenslang Probleme, weil ihnen zur Behandlung der lebens bedrohlichen Erkrankung Teile des Darms herausgeschnitten werden und sie somit oft ein Kurzdarmsyndrom haben. ❗Beide Risiken sind deutlich geringer unter Ernährung mit Frauenmilch und zwar um etwa die Hälfte. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7498789/ https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fped.2018.00295 https://journals.lww.com/advancesinneonatalcare/fulltext/2012/02000/breastfeeding_the_premature_infant_and_nursing.4.aspx https://www.geo.de/wissen/gesundheit/muttermilchbanken--wie-spendermilch-fruehchen-hilft-30434256.html #stillen #frühchen #frühchenmama #frühgeburt #frühgeborene #newborn #newmama #mama #liebe #intensiv #intensivkrankenschwester #normalizebreastfeeding #darmentzündung #kinderintensivpflege #muttermilch #breastmilk #neointensiv #baby #babyboy #babygirl #intensivkrankenschwester #ibclc #stillenkoeln

Is your five month old waking up for naps after 30 minutes like clockwork? it's very typical at this age. But there's things we can do! One thing you can try: About five minutes before baby wakes, you can go in, and shush/pat, which may ease them into the next sleep cycle. Activity helps so much too! Keeping them busy with tummy time and play will kind of wear them out and get them past that sleep cycle. You could even wait another few minutes before putting them down. Not too long or they'll get overtired and that's no fun! But just five or ten minutes can sometimes make a big difference. At this age it is so important to have a dark room - for both naps AND nights! If any light whatsoever gets into the room, even on the sides of the blinds, curtains, etc - they will wake up at this age. As an infant specialist training babies during naps for over a decade, I've seen this time and time again. A dark room makes all the difference. Make sure the sides of the windows are also covered so light doesnt sneak in around the sides. You want a DARK room! And if a light is absolutely necessary, make sure it's a red light, as red won't disrupt sleep. The Hatch is great for this. Keep the sound machine going too, with white, pink or brown noise. Skip the waves, lullabies and nature sounds - at least for naps. What do your baby's naps look like?

We live in a society that really glorifies the martyrdom of motherhood, but we don’t often talk about the mental load that comes with this and the challenges that it can create on the mother and within the partnership. This is something that I’ve personally been struggling with the past few months as I’ve taken on the majority of the parenting role, which means I’ve been able to practice what I’m trying to “preach” in this episode recently. We believe that as moms, we have to do it all, but this is just not the case. So join me as I share practical steps you can take to lean on your spouse, your co-parent, or others in your village. 🤔 Motherhood is one of the hardest jobs, but what if we could make it just a little bit easier? Topics discussed in the full episode: ✨ The challenges that come with being a default parent and normalizing these feelings ✨ How to talk to your partner when you’re feeling overwhelmed and solutions you can offer ✨ Recognizing that we can’t expect our male partners to do parenthood the same way we do as mothers ✨ Questions you can ask yourself to start the process of outsourcing your mental load Comment 💬 “PODCAST” and I’ll send you the link to listen! PS: In my work with clients, this is often a topic that comes up – how to share the responsibilities of night waking, night feeds, etc. If you’re interested in how I can support you 1:1, just shoot me a message!
✨2️⃣✨ Baby Jax turned 2 months old on April 17th! He’s grown so much from 1 to 2 months! 🩶 He absolutely loves milkies + cuddles, is so squirmy, active, + vocal, loves making cooing sounds and learning to smile at mom + dad 🥹 He’s so great at tummy time + holding his head up and just being such a strong boy!!!! He lost most of his thick newborn hair and is really rocking the old man bald on top, hair around the back look 😂👴🏻 And we think his eyes *might* be turning blue!? What do y’all think???? We love you so much, Jax, happy 2 months 🫶🏻

Separation of your breast milk is normal and expected 𝗗𝗼𝗻’𝘁 ❌ do NOT skim this layer off and wash it down the sink⠀⠀ ❌ do NOT discard this milk ❌ do NOT compare your milk to a strangers milk 𝗗𝗼 ✅ mix this fatty layer back into your milk ⠀⠀ ✅ feed this milk⠀⠀ ✅ this is good stuff! ✅ stay confident in your body’s ability to provide for your baby Commercialized milk goes through a process called homogenization. This process breaks down the fat molecules in milk so that they stay integrated rather than separating as cream. The fresh milk we express and collect at home does not get homogenized, this is why we expect to see separation! 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗸 𝘀𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀? After even an hour on the countertop I can see the fat begin to rise to the top. However after hours or a night in the refrigerator is when I expect to see a higher concentration of separation. 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼 𝘄𝗲 𝗺𝗶𝘅 𝗶𝘁 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝘁𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿? Use a clean utensil, swirl the container or even shake it. Yes you can shake your milk. My recommendation wouldn’t be to shake your milk if you intent to feed it right away. By shaking the milk the only potential 𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘮 you could be doing is adding unwanted bubbles to baby’s bottle prior to feeding. 𝗩𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆 𝗮 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗳𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 Time of day Emptiness or fullness of breast Age of baby/length of your postpartum Time between nursing or pump sessions 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 A few years ago my Granny saw my separated milk and she said, “When I was a kid our milk would separate and we just mixed it back in, same as your milk.” Separation is nothing new and we should be treating our milk just as we treat other non homogenized milk. Yes, you’re still able to purchase and consume non homogenized milk. If you’re already consuming this milk, you’re well aware of the separation and probably think we are all silly for questioning it! But the truth is, not everyone has experienced this and we all could use a reminder✨ #breastfeeding #exclusivepumping #breastfeedingmom #pumpingmom #breastmilk #workingmom #ftm #newmama #sahm #fouthtrimester #momtips #newmom
She can’t remember the last time she had quality sleep . She’s going through a rollercoaster of emotions . All she needs is for him to understand her , appreciate her and support her . But he doesn’t get it , he just feels not prioritised and replaced by the new baby. And in a situation where they are both lacking in communication, resentment sets in . This is why I will advice intending parents to educate themselves about “the postpartum phase “ before embarking on the journey . Dear dads , you don’t have to fully understand what’s going on . But you have a duty to be supportive , loyal and share the family load. Hold each other up , lean on each other . You can make it out of the postpartum phase together 🤍. It gets better , I promise Sending all my postpartum mamas, love and hug .

No apologies for over-sharing this gorgeous woman's gallery. I have been taking photos of this lovely mama since her senior pictures forever ago. Then along came her wonderful husband and it's been my honor to follow their journey from save-the-date photos, to now maternity photos. I am beyond excited for the arrival of their sweet baby boy and you can bet your butt I will overshare his photos too. 😆 @theogashleyg @blooms.on23 #2024maternityphotos #ashtynmphoto
6 weeks postpartum, and I'm finally fitting into my stretchiest pair of prepregnancy pants! I have never been overly concerned with the weight gain or, really, with it coming off. I don't really care about the number so much. I mean, I did gain about 60 lbs (a lot of it was fluid retention), so I figure it will come off when it comes off. However, I do want to be able to wear my old clothes, so it is nice to be able to fit some of them again. That said, everyone is different, so if you are struggling, please know that you will get there. You are beautiful no matter what! You grew a beautiful human being, and your beautiful body did exactly what it is supposed to and will continue to do so! Trust your body to take care of itself because it will. ♥️ And never compare your experience to someone else and think you should be where they are. You will be there in your body's timing, and that's okay. You are okay. P.S.

❤️SAVE this and share with a new or expecting mama❤️ While having the essentials on the registry is necessary, some really important aspects of preparing for motherhood are often neglected. At the top of EVERY list on preparing for baby, should be the emotional and mental health of mom and dad! This means you should be: ✨Having ongoing conversations about your expectations. Communicate openly so that you can identify a game plan and making adjustments when needed. ✨Seeking support from a licensed mental health provider to talk about the mental and emotional changes you will go through. It doesn’t mean you’re failing if you go to therapy. ✨Identifying the supports you need! What are some other things we should actually be focused on to prepare for life with baby? Share your thoughts in the comments below! ❤️ if you can relate 💌 share if this was helpful 💭 to let me know your thoughts 👤 follow @itsaparentlytime for more on motherhood & tips for prioritizing yourself & your relationship after having a baby . . . . . #newmama #newmoms #newmomsupport #mommiesofinstagram #momsandmamas #expectingmoms #expectingparents #expectingmother #expectingmama #momadvice
Our children learn not by what we say but by what we do. Here’s to a generation of parents leading by example. 🫶 #parenthood #parenthumor #newparents #motherhoodmemes #motherhoodjourney #momlifehacks #momlife #newmama #yougotthismama #momsupportmoms #mommotivation
Little Millie. I’m still working on this beautiful newborn session but I just couldn’t help but share some sneak peeks with you all because isn’t she SO scrummy? I loved how relaxed this session was, we had a lovely chat, Millie has a feed after we got her changed into her wee romper and then I swaddled her and rocked her off to sleep. For me, I find newborn photography is all about taking things at a leisurely space and making micro adjustments to get lots of variety in a shoot so we don’t need to move baby too much. Little Millie had a delightful snooze on her cosy blanket whilst I snapped away and the end result, these beautiful moments. . #NewbornMagic #WorcestershirePhotographer #BundleOfJoy #BabyZara #newbornlifestyle #mumlifebelike #mumclub #mumclubuk #storytellingmama #storytellingphotography #newbornlife #sleepwhenthebabysleeps #dreamyart #motherandsonbond #newmama #mummyblogger #mummybloggeruk #newbornphotographeruk
Babies need to be on their tummies in order to go through the fundamental movement patterns (for example, raising the head, creeping, and crawling), which stimulate both sides of the brain. So much so that In 2020, The World Health Organisation recommended that non-mobile babies should spend at least 30 minutes on their tummies, spread throughout the day when awake. If you're the parent of a new baby that might be easier said than done! Some babies love tummy time, whilst others aren't so keen and take a while to get used to it. Here are some activities you can try, to encourage your baby to enjoy tummy time more: 1. Place a safety mirror or favourite toy a few inches from your baby’s head and call their attention to it. Your baby will lift their head and reach out in different directions, which develops the muscles needed for rolling over. 2. Place your baby on a colourful quilt with squeaky toys attached. Remove your baby's socks so he can get good traction on the play mat. 3. One of the best strategies is to keep your baby company on the floor. Coo, sing or make funny sounds to encourage them to lift their head. 4. Lie on your back and place your baby face down on your chest. Call his or her name to encourage them to raise their head to get a better look at you. 5. Place a rolled-up towel under your baby’s chest. This supported position allows your baby to lift their head & look around and improves focus. 6. Put your baby on his tummy over a large ball and hold them firmly while you gently rock the ball back and forth. Your baby will learn to shift their body weight, which improves balance and coordination. #babysensory #tummytimeactivities #tummytimefun #tummytimetips #babycare #babycaretips #newbabycare #tiredparentsclub #tiredparents #babytips #babytipsandtricks #firsttimemum #firsttimedad #firsttimeparents #newparent #newmama #newdad #mumandbabygroups #mumandbabytime #parentandbaby #newmummy #newmumma #newmumuk #newmums #newmumshub #newdaddy

He might not just “get it “ . He’s probably thinking … “What’s going on with her ,the mood swing, constant tiredness , crying and irritability”. Maybe you’re the man and you do not have the ability to educate yourself about the postpartum phase . You may never fully understand what is happening to your partner while she struggles, and you don’t have to understand . BUT, you are required to love her unconditionally. You’re required to support her . Postpartum period isn’t the time to dump your woman or be mean to her . It’s the period , you walk through it together as a team , holding each other hand in hand 🤍. You can seek professional help from a counsellor that will educate you about the postpartum phase .

Sometimes what is underneath the anger is unmet needs . When you do everything for everyone and neglect yourself . This is why you’re cranky . You feel unseen , unnoticed , unappreciated. So here’s to you , mama showing up everyday for your children even when you’re empty . You pour your love into them even when you feel unloved . You’re amazing 🤍.

It will surprise you that babies cross identify themselves with their mothers in this “ give and take “ According to Zeljco Loparik ( Professor of philosophy at unicamp and winnicott scholar), it is the “motion of mutuality” The baby realises that mummy does something for him, that she gives him something (milk, security, warmth, comfort, etc...) and then the baby has the desire to give something to his mummy too. He is saying “thank you, I love you 🫶🏼 mummy”.

1. You were MADE for this. Literally. (Gen. 1:28, Psalm 139:16) From the beginning of time, God ordained that this child be given to you, and that you be given this child. Not any child, but THIS child. God knows this baby already - He knows it’s personality, it’s struggles, it’s needs, and He chose YOU to be its mama. God knows what He is doing! 2. Nothing ever takes God by surprise. (Psalm 147:5, Isaiah 46:9-10) He has had this planned out from the beginning! This truth was very comforting for me because I struggled with the timing of having my little one - I felt like I wanted to be a teacher for much longer before having a baby. It wasn’t what I thought I wanted at the time, but His ways are so much better than our own, and nothing can thwart His plans for our lives if we abide in Him. 3. Seek friendships with other Christian mothers - both in your generation and the generations before you. (Proverbs 27:17, Proverbs 19:10, 1 Thessalonians 5:11) The Bible encourages older women to teach the younger women to love their husbands, their children, and serve in their home. Find trustworthy women who exemplify Titus 2:3 and develop relationships with them. Be open to their wisdom and glean from their experiences - they’ve done this before! In the same way, find friends in the same season of life as you, so you can walk through the daily mountains and valleys of motherhood together. They haven’t done this before, and you can relate and encourage each other in that way. tag a mama you want to encourage today!!! 💗 #encouragement #christianencouragement #christianmom #christianmotherhood #newmom #newmama #sahm #stayathomemom #newmother #motherhood

Life lately • I’m going through some life changes also really trying to figure out how to navigate the influencer space right now. There is so much going on in my life personally and also, global issues have been weighing heavily on me. Just a little catch up for those who may see this: 1. My monthly treat to myself is my @nuuly — it’s still so fun curating a revolving closet each month 2. @roozengaarde rde this weekend walking through tulip fields 3. More tulips 4. A fresh selfie with my mom walking my baby 5. High tea with @georgia_a_leaf at My Cup Of Tea in Burlington, WA 6. Making simple but nutritious meals for the baby is a daily struggle — half of our food is on the floor but that’s part of it 7. Morning Hikes bring so much clarity to the start of my day 8. Still breastfeeding, lost a bag of milk because I forgot to store it, very sad 😢 9. What was supposed to be Shiloh’s smash cake but she didn’t even want to touch it lol 😂 10. @freshbeauty Lotus youth preserve dream face and serum are AMAZING! #photodump #newmamalife #newmama #ctblogger #ctbloggerbabes

✨LOVEVERY PLAY GYM✨(link is in Toys highlight 💛) There’s no doubt you’ve heard of this play gym and yes, it’s totally worth the hype 🙌 One of the reasons this is so worthwhile is because it grows with your baby and is fun for them for MONTHS. It helps initially with their coordination and focus using high-contrast images and noises for tummy time. Then it helps them explore texture, colors and more. Then it can be used for hide-and-seek and brought outside and so, so much more! And the best part: YOU CAN THROW IT IN THE WASHING MACHINE. The Sensory Strands are not included but also worthwhile!

✨SKIPHOP ACTIVITY CENTER✨(link is in Bouncers & Swings and the Toys highlights 💛) This activity center has been a LIFESAVER! Once my son was big enough to support-stand in it (4/5 months), he loved playing in here. It comes with 4 easily detachable toys, a suction cup bowl and the piano. We’ve also changed out the toys that come with it and added other suction cup toys to keep things interesting for my curious little man. Everything is easily wipeable, which you know is essential. It also converts to a table for when your baby is older! You will not regret getting this for your little one.
