Velcro Baby on your hands?

Same here…I think I curate them because who doesn’t want baby snuggles all day long…which is why a baby wrap or carrier is a must!

Okay on to the movements you can do with baby attached to you…

Here is a quick sequence to do so you feel like you built some strength, tuned in with your pelvic floor and stretched your sore, tired body

❤️ Ball Squeeze
🧡 Hip Abduction with a band
💛 Seated Figure-4 stretch
💚 Seated open book stretch
💙 Roll out foot on a firm ball

Repeat if you can!

That’s it…done in 5 min! Now you can get back to your day or relax and enjoy those baby snuggles 🥰

It’s hard not to see all the “new year, new you” resolutions and feel pulled to do all of it.

We joke in our house about “new year, same us” 😅
But honestly, all the pressure to reset and improve can make me feel anxious.

So instead, I’m focusing on recovering from carrying my third baby through a long pregnancy (every babe is always to snug to come out) so I can hold him as much as I want, feel pain-free, and slowly rebuild strength.

In this video, I’m giving some love to my SI joint (because it’s been talking to me lately).
✨ Hamstring nerve flossing
✨ Leg extensions for gentle core support
✨ Pelvic tilts on my back
✨ Finished with happy baby

If you’ve been feeling behind…
Or like you should be in the best shape of your life right now

Pause.
Take a breath.
You are exactly where you need to be.

Be kind to yourself, mama 🤍

2025 gave us so much more than I ever dreamed of

We didn’t know if we’d actually ever have a 3rd baby but it was clearly our missing piece

For being pregnant I went on a lot of trips - Mexico, Portugal, Florida, BC, Hawaii.
All were fun but Hawaii super pregnant was tough!

I became a Spinning Babies Certified Parent Educator which has been a dream for a while because it has helped my pregnancies and labour so much.

I started Birthing from Within Childbirth Educator and Doula training but had to pause due to too such a busy year.

I lost my grandma - but she waited to meet sweet Bodhin 💕

And even though my husband says I don’t say this anymore…we are an even better team than ever before…I think it’s necessary when you are out numbered 🙃

I recorded SO much content and have barely posted any of it 😅

Thank you for joining me this year and following my pregnancy journey!

And just like that the Fourth Trimester has come to a close

I hold your sweet, squishy, soft body next to mine as if where mine ends yours begins. Your home becomes my chest day and night where you feel the most secure. Listening to the sounds you know best.

I try to memorize your tiny fingers and toes as I watch you grow before my eyes.

You have over doubled your size and our hearts have too.

In the quiet of the night I hold you close for you to eat and for me to embrace you and only you.
I love you and I miss you on the inside

Thank you for being the gift I never knew I needed. You’ve forever changed me.

Each pregnancy has unlocked a new gift inside of me…

During my first pregnancy, it was learning how to experience pure joy after our infertility journey and a nudge to teach prenatal and postpartum yoga.

My second pregnancy gave me the gift of vulnerability seeking help, preparing for life with multiple children, and beginning to work through unresolved birth trauma.

And this last pregnancy gave me the gift of writing. I’ve never considered myself a writer, but this time around I journaled weekly, shared my journey online, and wrote this article to support and connect with the Calgary (and area) birth community.

I’m beyond excited to see this article come to life, especially in photos with B3, who joined me in so many yoga recordings along the way.

My family is so excited with me. Avery’s reaction when she saw it was, “Wow… you’re in a magazine!”

And yes, Mom - I’ll get you a copy 😘

🤍 If you’ve tried any of the movements or practices I share for pregnancy or birth prep, I’d love to hear what supported you.

📷 Thank you for these beautiful photos

Pelvic Tilts are the secret weapon for pregnancy comfort and birth prep!

It almost seems too easy right?

Rocking your pelvis helps to relieve iow back pain, creates movement through your sacrum and SI joint, and gives baby more space to find their most optimal position.

Then move through your spine with Cat Cow doing a dance with your baby. I love this time because when you’re in labour, you’ll naturally move in similar ways, and it will feel familiar and comforting.

Finish with frogger for an adductor stretch and some sneaky glute strengthening.

If you want more movements to help you feel comfortable now and confident for birth, join my Bump to Birth prenatal yoga program.
Link in Bio or message me to see if it’s right for you!
