R U OK? Day reminds us that conversations about mental health matter every day, not just once a year.

Checking in with a colleague, friend or family member and really listening can make all the difference. Sometimes, that simple conversation is the key to opening the door to the support someone needs most💬💛

Full circle moments 💕

This week, our wonderful lactation consultant and midwife Dianne McKay cared for the newborn child of a dad she looked after as a baby — right here at Kareena!

Jed was born at Kareena and is now back with his partner Sarah to welcome their own little one into the world.

We feel so honoured to be part of these beautiful generational stories. 💫👶

Good nutrition is vital for a healthy pregnancy, both for you and your baby! Here’s what you need to focus on:

🥦 Folic Acid – This is essential for baby’s brain and spinal cord development.
Foods to eat: Leafy greens (spinach, kale), fortified cereals, chickpeas, lentils, oranges.

🥩 Iron – Iron helps prevent anaemia and supports the baby’s growth.
Foods to eat: Lean meats (chicken, beef), beans, spinach, lentils, tofu, fortified breakfast cereals.
Pair with vitamin C-rich foods (like oranges or capsicum) to boost absorption!

🥛 Calcium – Supports strong bones and teeth for both mum and baby.
Foods to eat: Dairy (milk, yogurt, cheese), fortified plant-based milks (almond, soy), leafy greens (bok choy, spinach, kale), almonds, tofu.

🍊 Vitamin C – Crucial for immune function and skin and helps iron absorption.
Foods to eat: Citrus fruits (oranges, lemons), strawberries, capsicum, broccoli, kiwi, tomatoes.

🧑‍⚕️ Protein – Essential for cell and tissue growth, especially as your baby develops rapidly.
Foods to eat: Eggs, lean meats, poultry, fish (low-mercury options like salmon), beans, lentils, quinoa, Greek yogurt.

🍞 Whole Grains – Provide energy and fibre to keep you feeling full and support digestion.
Foods to eat: Brown rice, oats, quinoa, whole-wheat bread, barley.

Pregnancy brings its share of challenges, but with a few tips and tricks, you can ease those common symptoms. Here’s how to manage some of the most frequent pregnancy discomforts:

🤢 Nausea and Morning Sickness
Try eating small meals throughout the day, avoid triggers like strong smells, and stay hydrated. Ginger tea or crackers can also help settle your stomach. If nausea is persistent, speak to your doctor for further advice.

🛌 Back Pain
Pregnancy puts a strain on your back as your belly grows. Use a pregnancy pillow for support, practice good posture, and try prenatal yoga or swimming to keep muscles strong. Heat packs or massages can provide relief, too.

💤 Fatigue
Listen to your body and rest when you can. Prioritise sleep at night, and don’t feel guilty about naps during the day. Eating a balanced diet and staying hydrated will also keep your energy up.

💧 Swollen Feet and Ankles
Elevate your feet when sitting and avoid standing for long periods. Wear comfortable shoes, drink plenty of water, and reduce your salt intake to help manage swelling.

🌟 Heartburn and Indigestion
Avoid large, heavy meals and opt for smaller, more frequent meals. Avoid spicy or greasy foods and try sitting up for at least an hour after eating to help with digestion. Antacids may also help but check with your healthcare provider first.

📅 If you’re feeling overwhelmed by pregnancy symptoms, remember that every pregnancy is different! Your healthcare provider can help tailor solutions to your needs.
