The Womb Rooms

THIS WAS EVERYTHING AND MORE!

I’m a bit lost for words so I thought I would just attach my speech I wrote for last night and didn’t even look at. 🤣

Thank you to everyone who came. 🥹❤️

I just wanted to start by welcoming everyone. I know how much effort it takes to get yourself organised, get out of the house, and show up so truly, congratulations and thank you.

I started The Womb Rooms completely blind - no business skills, no grand plan… I still don’t. What I did have was a big passion and that “oh, f$&@ it” moment. I knew if I didn’t just start, it would never happen. So almost a year ago, I saw my very first client, and off I went.

One year on, I’m thankful to say I am as busy as I have the capacity for while juggling being a mum, a wife, and my hospital work and I absolutely love it. I’m so proud of this community we’ve built together. My little business has grown through Instagram and word of mouth, and I’m genuinely so grateful for every single one of you for supporting me, sharing my work, talking about what I do, and trusting me with your families.

I remember when I first became a mum, how lonely and isolating it can feel. The days were long, the identity shift is huge. Motherhood can be hard, so special, so beautiful but hard and I believe that it is better done with support and friends hence this little gathering.

I wanted to make this event something that resonated with me and If you know me, you know I love making friends, being social, having a drink, and connecting with people. So here we are!

I hope you all have a beautiful afternoon, go home with at least one new friend, and leave feeling like your self-care cup is just a little bit fuller… until next time.

Special thanks to for the stunning images and for always being my wing woman.

MY TOP TIP WHEN GOING FROM 1-2 KIDS..

Welcoming your second baby can feel like your heart (and hands!) are being stretched in two directions.

One of my top tips for welcoming a second baby is to carve out just 15 minutes of uninterrupted one-on-one time each day with your firstborn.

I often say Mother Nature has a way of making things work…….after that morning feed when your newborn goes back down for a nap, make yourself a cuppa, sit down with your older child and simply be present.

Sounds simple but “uninterrupted” is the goal here…... It’s known as “Watch, wait, and wonder”….Let them lead the play, no need to direct or initiate, just join in if they invite you. Tell them it’s special time for them and mummy and you can do whatever they choose.

It doesn’t need to be structured or elaborate sometimes it’s chatting, playing, doing a puzzle, or just sitting together side by side . But it fills their cup, helps them feel secure and sets the tone for a more regulated day.

Research shows that even 10–15 minutes of focused attention a day can strengthen your child’s emotional resilience, reduce sibling rivalry, and help them adjust to their new role.

Give it a try…these little moments can make a big difference.

IF THERE IS something you have been wanting, wishing, waiting to do for yourself this is your sign to DO IT!

I had the most incredible massage with Catee yesterday. We’ve been circling in each other’s work realms for a while, and I’ve heard about her beautiful work especially with caesarean scars. Something in me knew it was time to book in with her, and I’m so glad I did.

It was the most intuitive, sensual, and deeply nurturing massage, such a gift as a mother to be touched with no expectations. It was exactly what my body had been craving.

I’ve been left with so many feelings and insights today, and a deep sense of gratitude for this gorgeous woman and the work she does.

Ifyou are local do yourself a favour and book in for a c section recovery, pregnancy or remedial massage with Catee….

You won’t regret it!

There is a difference between engorgement, blocked ducts and mastitis but they can be closely linked. One can easily lead to the next…

Knowing how to spot the difference and manage appropriately can make all the difference.

I speak a lot about lymphatic breast massage to help resolve congestion which can lead to the above.

The beautiful Erin from .the.embodied.mother has an amazing lymphatic massage sequence that is so helpful to show you how to do it effectively.

Also some physics and IBCLC’s provide specific ultrasound to treat mastitis, engorgement and inflammation of the breast which can be very helpful.

Please like, share, save or send to a friend who might need this.

WHEN YOUR BABY JUST CANT SEEM TO SETTLE!

In these early weeks it can be so confusing…..

Is it hunger? Is it discomfort? Is it overtiredness?

It is usually a mix of things: an immature digestive system, a nervous system finding its rhythm , a tired or overstimulated baby, a bored baby, hunger or simply your little one needing some extra closeness and comfort.

Things that can help…..

✨Gentle upright holds
✨Breastfeeding
✨Skin-to-skin
✨Forearm hold
✨Tummy time
✨Lying over knees (like this image)
✨Rhythmic movement
✨Sensory stimulation (outdoors under the trees)
✨Baby wearing
✨Warm bath
✨Feeding adjustments
✨Taking a minute to regulate ourselves….energy exchange is huge.

It’s not always about “getting the burp out” sometimes it’s about helping them regulate, dial down and feel safe.

If you feel your baby is more unsettled than “normal” always consult with your care provider or IBCLC.

So here I go bringing some of my fav’s and my fav’s fav’s together, kicking things off with a night out (let’s face it it’s an afternoon but we can pretend we are wild), in celebration of “TWR” 1 year anniversary, the festive season and to celebrate motherhood.

DM me if you have any questions.

One of the best parts of my work is meeting so many amazing women and I’ve always thought if we could all get in the same room, it would be something pretty special.

Drop me a 👍 or 👎 if you’re in!

TANDEM FEEDING - I truely believe that one woman’s story can set the trajectory of another’s through storytelling.

So often our biggest learnings come from hearing the lived experiences of others.

Tandem feeding has come up a lot for me in the last few weeks, and Phoebe has been kind enough to share her journey. She lives remotely in NSW and we connected over Zoom during her pregnancy to prepare for feeding both her toddler and her newborn.

Here are Phoebe’s words…

I am emailing to let you know I had a beautiful baby girl on Thursday morning, She is absolutely perfect and I feel so lucky to have two beautiful girls!

The transition away from me breastfeeding my two year old to sleep at night went really well whilst I was in hospital. I would give her a breast feed in the hospital when she would come to visit and then my husband would return to our accommodation in the evening and go to bed with her without too much of a battle. Since coming home we have maintained this routine of me breast feeding her after her shower, and then my husband cuddling her to sleep, in case I am needed by the baby at bedtime as well.

She has taken to this change really well and loves sitting with me while I feed the baby and helping with nappy changes.

My husband snapped these two photos which I thought I’d send on to you. The first photo is me feeding my toddler in the afternoon on the day that Zara was born. And the second photo is the day after Zara was born, I was feeding Olympia and Zara woke and also wanted to be fed asap (hence why she’s still all wrapped up), so my husband helped me latch Zara whilst Olympia was still feeding too!

I am glad I made the decision to keep feeding Olympia, it has given me the chance to still have a really beautiful bonding moment with her throughout the day amidst this huge shift in her life right now, and I am excited to see where the tandem feeding journey takes us!

Thank you for your help and advice in the lead up to the birth, you’ve given me confidence to continue feeding my toddler as well as my baby!!

Phoebe ###

Once again anything is possible with the right support.
