[The Fourth Trimester] Are you familiar with the concept of “The Fourth Trimester”? While it may sound a bit contradictory, this term was coined to allow new mothers to highlight the period of our perinatal experience in the months right after delivery • During these months, our bodies are resting, repairing, and taking on new tasks as we navigate caring for our newborns and ourselves. It’s easy as a new mother to put the latter on the back burner • There are so many changes taking place in our bodies throughout this transformative process, it can be easy to overlook the importance of taking care of ourselves through this transition when everyone is still adjusting • Some of the most special moments I’ve experienced in this Work have been when clients that I’ve been with since before their pregnancy journeys even began, bring their babies in for a spa day • I feel so blessed to be able to offer a safe and serene environment for new mamas to bring their babies in while they get pampered. Hearing your birth stories, checking in about how everyone is adjusting, and getting to meet your little ones. These are all things that fulfill me in ways I never knew I’d get to experience in this field • Intentionally curated holistic skincare and perinatal massage experiences can be very supportive during postpartum recovery. If you’d like to learn more about practices that could enhance your birthing experience & postpartum recovery, DM us to learn more! • #fourthtrimester #experience #perinatal #postnatal #birthingexperience #restandrepair #mommyandmespaday #integrativemassge #organicskincare #holisticwellness #preparingforbaby #pregnancyskin #nourishing #balancing #hormonalshifts #elementahealing #cryoglobes #soothethesoul #quietthemind #mindbodysoul #spiritbaby #wombhealing #easefulrecovery #myerspark #charlottesmallbusiness #supportlocalcharlotte #treatyourself #madewithlove #ardorgrovebotanicals #whereselflovegrows

36 weeks today!! I can't believe how fast the past few weeks have flown by! Probably because I'm trying to go all Stacey Solomon, sort your life out, on the whole house before baby comes 😂 I would love to hear if you did any crazy sorting/decorating pre-baby arrival? Last time, as most of you know, I went in the labour on the day we moved into our new house so the first night I slept in our house was as a 3!! Had to share this moment from today though because he kept his hand there for so long and it was pretty darn adorable! #pregnant #preparingforbaby

European Routing When installing an infant carrier without a base, some car seats give you the option to use "European Routing." The manual may not refer to it precisely this way - it may just tell you that you may route the shoulder belt around the back of the car seat shell. Not every car seat allows this routing, so always pay attention to whether your car seat allows it before attempting it! Your manual should show you whether this method is allowed in the baseless installation section. Some car seats (like the @pegperegousa primo viaggio 4-35 pictured) have special slots that show you where to route the shoulder belt around the outside of the car seat shell. These are NOT lock-offs - the seat belt must still be locked off manually when using a seatbelt to install the car seat without the base. European routing doesn't allow the car seat to rotate as much in the event of a crash. It can also often provide a more secure and tight installation if allowed by your car seat. It's one more restraint keeping the car seat in place and tightly installed! Only use this European routing method if: ✅ Your car seat manual allows it ✅ You are installing the infant seat WITHOUT the base ✅ Your vehicle seatbelt is long enough It's common to see issues with this install method on larger infant bucket seats (like the Doona), vehicles with shorter vehicle seat belts, and vehicles where the shoulder retractor position is coming from the ceiling or another "non-traditional" position. If your vehicle seat belt isn't long enough, car seats that allow European routing also allow you to do a "standard" baseless install where the shoulder portion of the belt lays flat against the vehicle seat instead of routing around the back of the car seat shell. #carseatsafety #cpst #firsttimeparent #parentingtips #toddlermom #firsttimemom #travelingwithkids #themoreyouknow #parenting #preparingforbaby #rearfacingcarseats #forwardfacingcarseats #carseatssavelives #nowyouknow #howto #expecting

HOW DO AFFIRMATIONS WORK?
 Affirmations can help by serving as an important tool, encouraging the development of a positive mindset throughout pregnancy and postpartum. Engaging in affirmations works by leveraging the brain’s neuroplasticity, effectively rewiring thought patterns towards positivity. This conscious shift towards uplifting thoughts and beliefs enables you to enhance your confidence, overcome anxiety, and strengthen your connection with yourself and baby. The practice of repeating a phrase or affirmation counteracts self-doubt and effectively decreases stress levels. Furthermore, affirmations promote essential self-care, averting burnout and fostering mental resilience. Through the mechanism of positive self-talk and its influence on the brain, you can more smoothly navigate the challenges of this distinct phase, fully enjoying the joys and rewards of your matrescence (process of becoming a mother).

💯This was ME! I actually thought breastfeeding was a bit ick. I said I'd give it a go and I wouldn't care if I couldn't. I also wouldn't breastfeed past 6 months, because then they have solids and so to keep breastfeeding after that is just gross. Roll on to the third night I was sobbing at the end of my bed telling my husband to go get formula cause I couldn't do it, all the while feeling like my world was crumbling and I was just a failure. Got through that and then breastfed that one for four and half years. 🤭😆 So, what I'm saying is, I get it. I get that we don't think we'll care, cause I was part of that club. But then I joined the sobbing messy '𝐼 𝑑𝑜𝑛'𝑡 𝑘𝑛𝑜𝑤 𝑤ℎ𝑦 𝐼 𝑐𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝑠𝑜 𝑚𝑢𝑐ℎ 𝑛𝑜𝑤, 𝑖𝑡'𝑠 𝑠𝑖𝑙𝑙𝑦' club. And then I became a lactation consultant and body worker and began to understand the link between the evolutionary/animal brain that comes into play when we have our babies and I understood how we can go from thinking one thing to feeling another. 🤷‍♀️ We're designed so perfectly, we just didn't get the memo! We don't realise that we can't outsmart our design, so we're caught completely off guard and then end up feeling powerless to the forces of nature. This is science at the realest level. Yet there is no way to describe this to someone who hasn't yet met their physiology in this state. And so the cycle goes on of, "I'll give it a go, but won't stress if I can't," to see another new unprepared family try to overcome breastfeeding grief. In an attempt to stop this cycle, I've created a comprehensive document to help prepare you for your baby's arrival and breastfeeding journey. If you would like to do more than give it a go, and prepare yourself for your feeding journey, you can download 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐧 to get to grips with the sort of basics you may need to know when your baby arrives.

How do you prepare siblings for a new baby? Here are a few tips to help make the adjustment easier! 🐻 Get a heartbeat animal with your baby's heartbeat placed inside and gift it to your child(ren). Use this cute little keepsake to help teach them how they will hold the baby and take care of them. Give it lots of hugs and snugs before their new sibling comes! Our collection from @mybabysheartbeatbear is so soft and cuddly 🩵 📚 Read books about siblings meeting the new baby. Talk about the baby in your belly and allow them to ask questions. Talk about what they will see and hear when the baby comes home. Little ones are usually very curious about what the baby will eat and how they will eat. My little one was eager to share fruit snacks with her new baby brother, so we probably should have talked more about this beforehand 🙃 Your growing baby will love hearing your voices, too 🩷 🏠 Talk to your kids and prepare them about what the game plan is and who will take care of them while you are in the hospital, etc. #siblings #preparingforbaby #talktoyourkids #maternity #pregnancy #bigsister #bigbrother #readtogether #mybabysheartbeatbear

Preparing for birth 💫 Apart from taking part in a couple of classes (“Birth” and “Fourth trimester”) at my hospital, I also decided to read Siobhan Miller’s book and purchase the Hypnobirthing course from the Positive Birth Company. I’m trying to be positive and I also have a plan, but at the same time I’m trying to be open minded for whatever happens when she decides to come. 🤍 If you’re also expecting, how are you preparing for birth? If you’ve done it already, what are the things that helped you to prepare?

The #postpartum "baby blues" can hit hard. Lack of sleep, hormone fluctuations and unrealized expectations of motherhood can all contribute to it. Some of the symptoms include anger, guilt, hopelessness, loss of interest in activities and mood swings. And these symptoms can be worse in mothers with a history of depression. Talking to your partner and family ahead of time and empowering them to act if these symptoms arise or worsen is an important step in preparation for the time after #childbirth. #birth #baby #babytipsandtricks #babyblues #preparingforbaby #momtips #firsttimemomtips #preggo

Pregnant and feeling tired? One of the many side effects of pregnancy is feeling fatigued, and no wonder…Women are burning off as much energy as Ironman competitors! In a study published by Duke University, the resting metabolic rate of pregnant women was the most similar to elite long-distance endurance athletes who were running six marathons a week for months. This study compared elite athletes competing in the Tour de France, the Race Across the USA (over 3,000 miles in 140 days), and other endurance activities such as a 95-day Antarctic trek. According to an article published by the BBC, this research shows that although that running a single marathon is energetically “expensive” in the short-term it is, “nowhere near the limit of human endurance.” Based on this research, the runners in the Race Across the USA who were running the equivalent of six marathons a week had a resting metabolic rate which gradually decreased until it reached 2.5 times above normal. This, they understood to be the ultimate limit of human endurance (a limit not reached by the athletes in Tour de France or the Antarctic trekkers). The study also showed that pregnant women have a resting metabolic rate of 2.2 - a rate which nearly reaches the ultimate level of human endurance and is comparable to an elite athlete running six marathons a week for months. This research shows that “pregnant women [are] endurance specialists, living at nearly the limit of what the human body can cope with.” SO CALLING ALL PREGNANT WOMEN… YOU ARE AMAZING!!!! #londonmarathon2024 Yomamas #yofarnham #pregnancyyogafarnham #prenatalyogasurrey #firsttimemum #mummyfriends #sisterhood #farnhamlife #2ndtimemum #babyduesoon #prenatalyogafarnham #farnhammums #antenatalyogfarnham #yogaforpregnancyandbirth #activebirth #pregnancyyogasurrey #antenatalyogasurrey #yogainfarnham #preparingforbaby #antenatalclassessurrey #positivebirthstories #tipsforbirth

🤰🏽 There is a laundry list of reasons why adjustments are important during pregnancy, and one of them starts shortly after conception: relaxin! 🤰🏽 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The hormones relaxin and progesterone loosen ligaments and joints, especially in the pelvic area, during pregnancy and up to 6 months after breastfeeding is finished. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 👉🏼 Due to the laxativity of the ligaments and tendons plus extra weight and body changes in pregnancy, 50 to 70 percent of pregnant women experience back pain during their pregnancy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Tag a pregnant mama below! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ . #pregnancyhealth #happypregnancy #happypregnantlady #pregnancytips #maternalhealth #preparingforbaby #preggomama #pregnancychiropractic #pregnancychiropractor #pregnancychiro #prenatalchiropractic #prenatalchiropractor #empoweredbirth #activepregnancy #prenatalcare #pregnantladyproblems #lovepregnancy #pregnancylife #happypregnant #fitpregnancyjourney #pediatricchiropractic #pregnancysafe #naturalpregnancy #prenatalhealth #beforebirth #birthprep

Lil weekend recap celebrating 8 weeks (or less!) until we’re parents🥰Here’s a few things we’re doing to help prepare for the big changes coming our way👇🏻 For seasoned parents, I realize there’s nothing that can prevent you from long sleepless nights and a complete lifestyle change! These are just a few things I’m doing to set a positive and grounded tone, mentally and physically, for when she comes home. — working on my relationship: number one. This has been the focus for many months to help prepare us. Making sure we have healthy and open communication and tools in our back pocket for when times get tough. — making our apartment feel like our home. This weekend we unboxed all of her things like she’s already here so there’s less last minute instruction manuals or assembly. We want to get used to her things being out and ready to use so it’s just a little less of a culture shock/chaotic mess when she comes home. — printing off her schedule and putting it on the fridge so we know what to do. I understand newborns don’t abide by schedules but having a general rule of thumb as guidance helps us feel more at ease. — putting together a list of go-to meal prep recipes so it’s one less thing to think or worry about. We also plan to make freezer meals and grab-and-go snacks as the time gets closer. — creating a daily milestones check list. And by “milestones” I mean our basic needs like brushing our teeth, showering, getting outside, eating, etc. I’ve been told by so many parents that it’s easy to neglect your own needs due to the stress of having a newborn. In my past, I know that neglecting my basic needs leads to severe depression so I am doing everything I can to put measures in place for preventative care. If you’re a parent and have any prep suggestions, please DM me or leave them below!! #healthylifestyle #preparingforbaby #pregnancyjourney #healthyhabits #newmom #newparents #healthcoach

Pregnancy really is an emotional rollercoaster 🎢 Along with the excitement of being pregnant and growing a baby there are going to be times of anxiety. Is my baby ok? Am I ready for this? I’m nervous about birth! I’m already exhausted, how am I going to be able to do this? Here is an emotions graph showing how some people feel during pregnancy. All feelings are valid and expected so if yours differ to this, that is totally ok. We all have different circumstances, and hormones throughout pregnancy that send us on a wild emotional journey: just know you are not alone. If you’re really struggling with your emotions or mood during pregnancy or postpartum please speak to your midwife or doctor. 👩🏽‍⚕️ How did you feel during your pregnancy? Do you relate to any of our emotions graph? Let us know in the comments to help reassure other pregnant or newly postpartum parents. #pregnancydiary #pregnancylife #pregnant #20weekscan #12weekscan #preparingforbaby #labourandbirth #birthstory #newbaby #postpartum #antenatalsupport #antenatalclasses #antenataleducation

What exactly is a vertebral subluxation? 👇 A vertebral subluxation (a.k.a. subluxation) is a situ­ation in which one or more of the bones of your spine (vertebrae) lose their normal alignment and function, creating pressure or irritation on the spinal cord or spinal nerves, causing those nerves to malfunction or obstruct the signals traveling over them. This results in a loss of proper “connection” between your brain and your body, which causes your body to lose the ability to intelligently and purposefully organize all the cells, tissues, and organs to work harmoniously together. It also hinders our ability to adapt to stress. Let us help you get that spine back in line!

Ok ok get your head out of the gutter 🤣 This is regarding LABOR & DELIVERY 🤰🏾The more clam and relaxed mama can be the more the pelvic floor muscles can lengthen reducing risk of tearing and prolonged/strenuous labor. What are some calming techniques you are going to or have used during labor? ♡ Erin #laboranddelivery #pregnancy #laborprep #vaginalbirth #pelvicfloor #pelvicfloormuscles #preparingforbaby #relax #calmingvibes #momtobe #laborsupport #motherhoodperformance

Kids In Airplanes Travel logistics can be exhausting and no one wants to add MORE to their airport luggage load! But flying with your child’s car seat (or a travel car seat) is the best way to keep them safe both in the air and on the ground. Car seats on airplanes are not to help protect a child in the event of a crash - we all know they wouldn’t be up to that task or we’d ALL be riding in car seats on planes! When a child rides in a car seat on a plane, it helps protect them from turbulence. A poorly fitting lap belt or a parent/caregivers arms can’t keep a child in their seat during a turbulence. There are many documented cases of unrestrained children being injured during moments of turbulence. A car seat will keep them safely restrained and in their seat even when things get bumpy. When will my child fit in an airplane seat belt? - When a child weighs about 40lbs (around 4 years old), the lap belt on a plane will usually fit them correctly. However, you know your child best. If you have a child who weighs 40lbs but is not able to sit still in a lap belt, bring their car seat! Let the harness make the safe choice for them. Can I use a booster on an airplane? - Boosters are not approved for use on airplanes because they require a lap AND shoulder belt and planes only have lap belts. Instead, you can gate check the booster, put it in your luggage, or even take it as a carry-on if it’s small enough! What if I don’t need a car seat at my destination? - If you don’t need a car seat where you’re going, you could try a CARES airplane harness. However, be aware that it typically provides the best belt fit for kids that are closer to 40lbs (its weight limit is 44lbs). Its maximum height limit is also 40 inches, so it may not be a perfect solution for every child. Can’t I just rent a car seat from my car rental company? - Many rental companies do rent car seats, but they come with risks. You don’t know the history of the seat, how its been cared for/cleaned, and you are not be guaranteed to get one that fits your child - especially if you have an older toddler/preschooler. Keep kids safe in the air - bring their car seat on the plane!

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐞𝐱𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐈 𝐝𝐨 𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐲? Although each type of exercise has different benefits for pregnancy, both strength training and cardio are important and helpful. Exercise & movement can help alleviate common pregnancy symptoms, improve your ability to recover from childbirth, help keep weight gain within a healthy range, and aid in keeping your body strong & structurally sound throughout your pregnancy. One of the biggest benefits of STRENGTH TRAINING is that helps keep your body strong, balanced, aligned, and stable. All of this together helps relieve stress on your tendons, ligaments, and joints, which is especially helpful as your belly grows. For example, a strong upper back can help support the extra weight of growing breasts, a strong core helps support the extra weight and size of your growing uterus, and a strong posterior chain (muscles on the back of your body, and particularly your glutes) helps counterbalance the extra weight on the front of your body and keep your pelvis in a more neutral position. Besides that, you're going to want all the strength you can get once your baby is born and you've got to carry not only the baby, but also the car seat... and diaper bag... and stroller... and groceries... perhaps an older sibling... you get the idea. But don't forget about CARDIO! Pregnancy demands a lot from your heart and lungs. Total blood volume increases by around 45% on average, which means your circulatory & respiratory systems are taxed quite heavily in comparison. After all, they're now responsible for providing oxygen to not one, but TWO living beings. Additionally, cardio is linked to better quality sleep and improved mental health. Overall, cardiorespiratory training helps prepare your body to meet both the physiological and psychological demands of pregnancy, and it should not be overlooked. In conclusion, both strength training & cardio have major benefits for pregnant women. The key is to incorporate them in a way that makes sense for YOU and your current fitness levels. And that is where a coach (like me!) can help 🙂

Contractions, Waves, Surges. (you can call them whatever you choose to) They are all ways of describing the natural rhythmic tightenings of your uterus in childbirth. It's what we are awaiting that whole time, we hear so much about them don't we? They can have you saying "was that a contraction?" at first. Then there will be no doubt. They are repetitive, they are powerful and strong, some stronger than others, they can be intermittent, they can be really intense. All consuming. They are you. They are baby making their way to you. Who am I to say if they are all painful or not - pain is so subjective to each person. However you can do this, and pain relief is available for you without judgement. You can really honestly benefit from learning more about the birth process and how you can feel equipped to manage your birth sensations. Fear is not our friend in birth, and you deserve to be able to not dread this during your pregnancy. ⭐️ Please see my bio for your next birth preparation course ⭐️ Mama Trees xx #springbaby #birthisbirth #maternityleave #waterbirth #pregnancylearning #preparingforbaby #homebirth #leedsantenatalclass #secondtrimester #leeds #birthpartner #thirdtrimester #leedshypnobirthing #hypnobirthingleeds

Why are the stats what they are? Because too many people do no educational prep and rely heavily on a system designed around formula fed babies and policies to support them with breastfeeding. We hold out for understaffed and often underqualified healthcare systems to help us navigate something that is much more complex than we often realise before having babies. If you want to risk your breastfeeding journey, then do what the majority of parents do to fall into these statistics ➡️ no prep. Just show up and hope for the best. ℍ𝕆𝕎𝔼𝕍𝔼ℝ, if you want to know with confidence that you can breastfeed your baby and reach your goals, take ownership of your journey and educate yourself!

🤰🏽 There is a laundry list of reasons why adjustments are important during pregnancy, and one of them starts shortly after conception: relaxin! 🤰🏽 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The hormones relaxin and progesterone loosen ligaments and joints, especially in the pelvic area, during pregnancy and up to 6 months after breastfeeding is finished. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 👉🏼 Due to the laxativity of the ligaments and tendons plus extra weight and body changes in pregnancy, 50 to 70 percent of pregnant women experience back pain during their pregnancy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Instead of hoping the pain will go away, book an appointment with me!

Kids in UTVs/ATVs/Side By Sides High speed all terrain vehicles like ATVs, UTVs, and side by sides are notoriously dangerous - even for adults! Over 100,000 ATV/UTV riders end up in the emergency room for their injuries and more than 700 people (including 100 children) die in ATV/UTV crashes each year. These vehicles are designed to navigate rugged terrain, can go up to 110 MPH, and are at a very high risk for rollover crashes. Sometimes CPSTs have to say "I cannot tell you a safe way to do that" and riding in an ATV/UTV/side by side is one of those times. There is no safe way for a child to ride in an adult all terrain vehicle - even with a helmet/goggles. Their bones are not yet fully hardened and ATVs/UTVs are not designed for child passengers. Car seats are not designed for use with all terrain vehicles and will not perform as intended in a crash. Even though all terrain vehicles may look like passenger vehicles on the inside, they are not operated in the same way and they are much riskier. According to CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission), children younger than 6 should NEVER ride in any type of all terrain vehicle. Children younger than 16 should only ride youth-model ATVs that are designed for children - never adult ATVs. Have a little one who wants to join in the fun? Get a ride-on toy! These battery powered toys (like the ones available from @pegperegousa) for ages 3+ go about 2-4 MPH and let kids feel like they are driving their own vehicle. Keep kids safe with age-appropriate fun! ATVs are not for kids. #carseatsafety #cpst #firsttimeparent #parentingtips #toddlermom #firsttimemom #travelingwithkids #themoreyouknow #parenting #preparingforbaby #rearfacingcarseats #forwardfacingcarseats #carseatssavelives #unregulated #unsafe #ATV #UTV #kidsonthego #travelhacks #offroading

𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐱𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐲? To be frank, advice around exercise during pregnancy generally sucks. One of the most common suggestions is that you can "keep doing what you were doing before pregnancy, but do not start anything new." I'm here to let you know that this is NOT entirely accurate. It IS definitely TRUE that if you were active before pregnancy you can continue training while pregnant (with appropriate modifications & considerations). But even if you weren't exercising at all before becoming pregnant, you CAN start exercising while pregnant, as long as you're cleared (as long as you have no major issues, if you're OB or midwife is up-to-date on research, they should clear you). The biggest difference in these two scenarios is that the woman who was ALREADY training can train at a moderate or even high intensity THROUGHOUT pregnancy. While the woman who is BEGINNING to exercise after becoming pregnant should exercise at low or moderate intensities throughout. Moral of the story - nearly EVERYONE can exercise during pregnancy! Which is great, considering there are a number of benefits to it, but we'll cover those in another post 😊 P.S. I offer fitness programming & general nutritional guidance to those who are trying to conceive, pregnant, or postpartum (no matter how far!). If you're interested, shoot me an email via my bio ❤️

One of the many ways chiropractic care is so invaluable during pregnancy! "Babies will move into the head-down position if they have the ideal environment. If the space they are in allows them to move head down, they will.

For many of us, after postpartum our mental health went unattended until we reached a boiling point. There are SO many things we do to prepare for the arrival of baby. But not much preparation is focused on the moms-to-be, especially when it comes to their mental health. 🌼At BLOOM, we work with our pregnant clients on preparing a postpartum “mental health checklist”, and we are sharing it here. If you are looking to establish a relationship with a postpartum therapist before the arrival of your baby, or even if you are in postpartum now, we currently have NO waitlist and offer FREE 20 minute consult calls to see if our therapists are right for you. Don’t wait to get help! You weren’t meant to do this alone! #healingstartswithhelp #rtherapyisfun #therapistsofinstgram #therapy #therapist #perinatal #perinataltherapist #perinatalmentalhealth #postpartumprep #postpartumdepressionawareness #postpartum #perintalmooddisorders #perinatalmoodandanxietydisorders #postpartumtherapist #infertility #infertilitysupport #postpartumtherapy #infertilitytherapist #infertilitytherapy #pregnancyanxiety #pregnancyanxietyrelief #postpartummentalhealth #postpatumdepression #postpartumanxiety #postpartumsleep #preparingforbaby #postpartumprogress

Kids In Golf Carts There has been a huge rise in the number of "golf cart communities" around the country - especially in areas with warmer weather. We're seeing more and more folks using golf carts (for more than just golf!) which means we're also seeing more and more children using golf carts. Though they drive at lower speeds, golf carts are not kid-friendly. They are not manufactured to the same federal standards as a regular car/truck. They are not required to have seat belts and if they do have seat belts, they are not required to meet federal seat belt standards. Car seats are engineered for use with vehicles that pass federal motor vehicle safety standards. If you install a car seat in a low speed vehicle like a golf cart, there is no guarantee that the car seat will perform as intended in a crash! According to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, we see 6,500 child injuries from golf cart crashes every year - and just over HALF of those are to children under 12! So what's the good-better-best? GOOD: Follow the golf cart manual and guidelines and use seat belts if available BETTER: If you must put a child in a golf cart, use a product that mimics regulations that are based on existing standards (the immi lil caddie is a positioning device - NOT a car seat - that is made for use with a golf cart) BEST: No children ride in golf carts. They are not designed for use with car seats and we should not rely on car seats to protect children in low speed vehicles like golf carts. Remember: ✅ Children should never be left unattended in or around golf carts ✅ Using a car seat in a golf cart doesn't make it a safe way for a child to ride ✅ Only adults should drive the golf cart - never children! #carseatsafety #cpst #firsttimeparent #parentingtips #toddlermom #firsttimemom #travelingwithkids #themoreyouknow #parenting #preparingforbaby #rearfacingcarseats #forwardfacingcarseats #carseatssavelives #unregulated #unsafe #golfcarts #golfcartcommunities #kidsonthego #travelhacks
