Send us a textIn this episode, Meredith shares the story of how she recently discovered her children’s tongue ties or tethered oral ties (TOTS), as well as her own. She explains why tongue ties can be a problem for children and adults, as well as infants. You’ll learn about the signs of sleep disorders and tongue ties and uncover one of the causes of frustrating feeding problems for babies. Listen to this podcast to find out who can support you if you are would like to find out if you or your child has a tongue tie or sleep disorder.Tongue ties and sleep disorders are very common. Be sure to watch or listen to this episode to gain insight that you may need someday, whether you need to know for yourself, your child, or someone you care about!Be sure to watch for Part 2 on this topic. Meredith will talk about her son’s tongue tie release, her own release, her daughter’s experience with a palate expander, and report how health is improving for her family.What are oral ties? These are bands of tissue that form under the tongue, inside the upper and lower lip, and inside the cheeks. It's normal to have them. But some ties are restrictive and inhibit proper tongue/lip function. They can range from thick to thin, be easy to spot when the tongue is lifted or they may be hidden. (Posterior tongue ties are under the tongue at the base.) Ties can form between the upper teeth-creating a space. Or they may restrict the tongue from sticking out or reaching up to the palate. A professional will know if ties are a problem.Highlights:Are feeding struggles a sign of oral ties?What are the health symptoms of oral ties?What are the signs of apnea and sleep disorders?Reasons for trusting and following parent’s intuitionHow Meredith’s intuition helped her familyFinding a dentist, ENT, myofuntional therapist, or IBCLC with the right trainingWhat myofunctional therapists do and how they can helpHow chiropractors can help people with oral tiesHow to move forward in assessing sleep and tongue tiesReady to understand your child?

Send us a textDo you want to take care of your body and mind, but find it hard to prioritize yourself?It’s not easy for mothers to find time to properly care for themselves, and at times it can be hard to get out of survival mode. That’s why it will be great to learn from experts like Lisa Westhorpe, a mother and occupational therapist. She spent years working with children and the elderly, and found her career very rewarding. But, when she became a mother, she was startled to find very little support and information to help her adjust to her new role.Can you relate to the lack of support and how that affected you? Lisa found it hard to take care of her body and mind because no one prepared her for this transition into motherhood. She didn't realize that she needed more instruction and information to successfully manage postpartum recovery or how to support the new demands placed on her body. Despite her background as an occupational therapist, she developed an injury while caring for her new baby from repetitious movements. But, Lisa turned something difficult around. These experiences compelled her to seek further education and training in maternal healthcare, led her in a new direction in her career, and inspired a passion for supporting new mothers!Listen to this new podcast episode to hear about Lisa’s incredible mom and baby playgroups and her new course that teaches other occupational therapists to support mothers worldwide.

If you are considering having another child, you'll rethink your approach, expectations and the way you prioritize self-care, the next time!This episode features an interview with Amanda Bennett, host of the "Gotcha Mama" podcast. Amanda shares the difficulties she experienced when she had her first child. It was challenging to become a mother, as it can be for many of us. But Amanda realized later that she didn’t take good care of herself or seek enough help from others, because she didn't understand her own needs and there wasn't enough guidance, information, or community support available.Amanda started a podcast to build her own community of support and fellowship for mothers. As she learned from other moms and reflected on her own experiences, Amanda created a plan for how she would approach postpartum with her second child. Her mission was successful! The second time around was completely opposite of when she had her first child; she felt like herself, wasn't completely overwhelmed, and felt whole much sooner.

Send us a textThank you so much for tuning in to today's very important podcast!

Our conversation covers a wide sweep of important touch points that all center on managing postpartum depression and anxiety, the role that good sleep habits have on the severity of postpartum, and giving yourself a bit more grace as you figure out how to do this mothering thing with those around you, and individually."...We need to support each other as moms and not be comparing ourselves to each other, there's no finish line, there's no first-place prize in this thing of motherhood. It is a community of moms and we have such a large community of women that have gone through this. I think we need to look at each other and say, “You're part of my tribe, you're part of this community"... instead of comparing ourselves to each other, and saying, “Well, am I doing as good as them? Are they doing as good as me?” We should all just look at each other and say, “We're doing the best that we can. What can I do to help you?” - Jenny HladunTopics: What’s hard about having a new baby Feelings a new mom experiences Risk factors that cause postpartum depression and anxiety Typical signs of postpartum depression and/or anxiety Marriage struggles Ideas for managing postpartum mental health Jenny’s advice and insight for new moms Advice for women who suspect they have postpartum depression or anxiety Powerful Solutions: support, improved sleep, self-care, and giving yourself grace Resources: www.postpartum.net Ready to understand your child better?
