Today, on Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day - I am pausing to honour all the little souls who have been lost too early and to send love to all the mothers, fathers and families who carry this quiet grief.

Our little Ivy Mae is our Rainbow baby - the light after the storm - each soul who has touched my womb has left a mark on my heart and their impact lives on in who I am as mother.

To those walking with this quiet grief: you are not alone! Your story, your love and your loss matter. I am here with you.

If Pregnancy or Infant Loss has touched your life and you feel called to join the Wave of Light tonight At 7pm by lighting a candle in remembrance to the little ones gone too soon.

A little reflection on Matrescence - I am still me…but changed.

With the birth of each child, a new version of me has emerged—one with a new purpose, a new lens, and a heart stretched in ways I never thought possible. And while there is deep love and gratitude, there has also been quiet grief.

Grief for the woman I was before.
Grief for the energy, dreams, and parts of myself I’ve had to set aside.
Grief that I’ve changed the family dynamic and our timelines have shifted.
Grief that’s rarely spoken about, often silenced by guilt or the fear of being misunderstood.

But I’ve learnt and I’ve guided others to know:
✨ It’s okay to grieve and love at the same time.
✨ You can feel joy and loss.
✨ Grief is not weakness—it’s a sign of growth, of depth, of how much you’ve given.

So if you’re a mother walking through this quiet inner transformation, this is for you.
Feel it. Name it. Share it and Seek Support if you need it.

You are not alone in this.

✨Early Motherhood is a series of shared moments - called Co-occupations - shared, meaningful activities which form the heart of the mother-baby dyad.

The simple and possibly mundane tasks such as feeding, changing and soothing are all meaningful interactions shaping both the mother and her babies identity.

These moments aren’t “just tasks” - they are the foundation of wellbeing, attunement and development.

Co-occupations support:
- Secure Attachment
- Sense of Self for both mother and baby
- Emotional Development & Regulation
- Sensorimotor Development
- Cognitive Development
- Language & Communication

👉Did you know?
Occupational Therapist specialising in Perinatal or Maternal Wellness can support Mothers and Babies in nurturing these co-occupations - especially when challenges arise like birth trauma, sensory sensitivities or postpartum mental health concerns arise.

👇🏼Tell me:
Which co-occupation makes/made you feel most connected to your little one?

☺️ For me it is baby-wearing & breastfeeding

✨Still riding the high — one week on! ✨

This time last week, I had just completed an incredible four-day immersion with . When I saw that Lynn Schulte was coming to Australia to facilitate her live course in Cairns, my entire body said a full, resounding YES. 🙌

I’ve long been curious about the holistic approaches to supporting pregnancy and postpartum women — and over time, client experiences and my own inner compass had been gently guiding me in that direction.

This training was everything I hoped for and more: deeply validating, profoundly educational, and so aligned with the direction I’ve felt called to explore.

Not only did I gain invaluable knowledge and practical tools, I walked away with a sense of accomplishment and an overwhelming sense of gratitude to;
💛 Hollie - for organising such a powerful and seamless experience
💛 Janelle - for paving the way and expanding the scope of what’s possible for OTs in this space.
💛 Lynn - for making the journey to Australia to share the heart and soul of her life’s work.
💛 And to every single woman in the room who contributed to a space that felt safe, respectful, and nurturing — allowing both myself and my daughter to show up exactly as we were.

I am excited to begin weaving this learning into my work and continuing to walk this path.
