Stay Safe Around Frozen Water!

Frozen lakes, ponds, and rivers might look inviting, but they’re extremely dangerous. If someone falls through the ice:
📞 Call 999 immediately
❌ Do NOT go onto the ice
👌 Reassure them and tell them to keep still
🪢 Reach from the bank using a rope, branch, or clothing tied together
🛟 If you can’t reach, slide something that floats to help them stay afloat until help arrives

Have you heard of colostrum? 💛

This is what may be known as babies first milk. Liquid Gold.

Colostrum holds some incredible properties. It is very highly concentrated, which means baby only needs very small amounts for their first few days of life. It is often yellow and sticky in appearance (liquid gold), but can come in more clear or pale appearance too.

Colostrum starts to be produced around the second trimester in pregnancy. This is when some people may notice that they leak from their breasts. Some won't. Neither is an indicator on your supply, so please don't worry.

From 36/37 weeks, some parents decide to harvest their colostrum. For more details, chat with your midwife and look here: https://youtu.be/7S7wo4Ee8Q8

When baby arrives and the placenta leaves the body this sends signals that your body needs breast milk for your baby, and Colostrum is the beginning of this. Your baby will only need small amounts of colostrum because it contains so much goodness.

It boosts their immune systems, provides them with all the first nutrients they need, nurtures good bacteria in the gut and so much more.
shared that:
'Colostrum gives your baby immunity to the germs that are in the surrounding environment. It is protective, coating the intestines to fence these germs out so they cannot be absorbed into your baby’s system. This barrier seals your baby’s insides, preparing your little one for a healthy life. Colostrum also kills harmful microorganisms and provides protection from inflammation.'

Burn marks.
Scorch marks.

Let's talk about habit stacking - have you heard this term?

We often talk about sleep when it comes to babies and especially in terms of breastfeeding to sleep.

Let's be clear that breastfeeding to sleep is not and never will be a bad habit. We are biologically designed to do this, and we even release sleepy hormones to help encourage and aid sleep. Sleep is also developmental, so all babies, toddlers, and children will get there (it just takes some longer).

Habit stacking can be a great way to build comfort cues alongside what you are already doing. These cues can be patting babies bum, gentle strokes, rocking etc.

In these early stages, habit stacking isn't about stopping breastfeeding or changing anything, it's focusing on adding in those layers, which will gradually help little one to sleep. It's building on the comfort the baby already has.

You may realise you've been doing this all along. This is a really gradual approach, but this means little one will grow with it too and become more secure with the changes.

Have you tried habit stacking?

This can be really helpful for when parents go back to work, partners to help with sleep as baby gets older, or for that gentle weaning process when breastfeeding is coming to an end.

💙 The exact cause of pre-eclampsia isn’t known however it’s thought it occurs when there’s a problem with the placenta.

🩵 Most people only experience mild symptoms but if it isn’t treated it can lead to serious complications for both mum and baby so it’s important it is diagnosed and monitored.

💛 According to the NHS, the earlier symptoms of pre-eclampsia are present the more severe the condition will be.

💙 Other factors that can slightly increase the risk include:

- a family history of pre-eclampsia
- if you’re aged over 40
- it’s been more than 10 years since your last pregnancy
- if you are expecting multiple babies
- if your BMI is 35 or higher

🩵 If you have 2 or more of these together your chances are higher.

💛 If you’re diagnosed with pre-eclampsia you’ll be referred to a specialist at hospital where they’ll do further tests to see how severe it is.

💙 Pre-eclampsia will only be cured by giving birth to your baby, so you’ll be monitored closely until it’s possible to deliver your baby.

🩵 You’ll need to attend regular appointments so you can be monitored and in severe cases you may need to be admitted to hospital.
