Motherhood update

Anonymous said to @ask-drferox: How’s motherhood going for you?

Better than it was, frankly.

So the ‘baby blues’ hit me quite badly from about 5 days after the birth, and I didn’t really start climbing out of it until about day 14. The Baby Blues are absolutely crazy moodswings mostly of the depression and anxiety flavors, with lots of spontaneous crying, lethargy, fatigue, fear... it’s like menstrual moodswings but about 50 times worse.

Which makes sense as Baby Blues are associated with the massive hormone crash you experience when you stop being pregnant. (Post natal depression would continue for longer than just a few days, and I was probably going on a bit long, but definitely pulling out of it now)

I am really lucky in that kiddo is down to needing a feed just every 4 hours, which means it’s not too bad getting a bit of rest in between. She’s already changing in terms of growing more strength, being morre interested in things and moving differently, and it’s fascinating to see her start to think about things.

Lactating is an interesting experiece when you’ve only thought about it in the context of cattle before. I have to say cattle are much more efficient, producing the huge volume that they do while I was really proud to express 100ml in a session today. Also breastfeeding is kind of painful and awkward, kiddo is not gentle, has a mouth like a mousetrap and will shake the food source in her mouth from side to side when she’s frustrated. It’s not the serene experience that it looks like in the pictures.

And there is this strong obession with breastmilk and homecures for everything. Skin rash? Put breastmilk on it. Sore nipples? Rub breastmilk on them. Snotty baby nose? Put a drop of breastmilk up there.

But the breastmilks obsession is much, much better than the other mothersgroups obsession of making sure everything is organic and ‘chemical free’... and then adding essential oils to everything.

I’m getting better at fitting life back in around kiddo’s needs, while reminding myself that I’m technically still recovering. My brain wants to go faster than my body is ready to.

Watching the Long Suffering Boyfriend interactt with her warms my heart to a degree that I didn’t know I could feel. She loves his voice and calms so quickly, whether he’s humming to her (which I’m pretty sure is the Halo theme tune) or reading her Dune. He loves her so much.

I also love her a lot. Sometimes the enormity of all the potential futures ahead of her is overwhelming and I worry about how to raise her with enough fortitude, but between the two of us I think we can start her off from a decent home base. We’ll figure out the rest as we go along.

This is the first baby 👶 hat that I crocheted 🧶 out of the yarn donated to me, so that I can make gifts 🎁 for vulnerable children. How do you like it? It’s available to be purchased for £15 (including P&P), which would enable me to buy more yarn and make more gifts for marginalised children. It is for a baby of 6-12 months.

Self-care as a mum is so important. We are giving our all 100% of the time and it can be overwhelming, emotional and exhausting. Of course it’s beautiful and full of so much love and joy too. Taking some time out is essential to helping us show up and be the best for our kids. This will look different for everyone. I like to go for a massage 💆‍♀️ , read a book 📚 , sit in the sun ☀️ and meditate 🧘‍♀️ or just sit with a girlfriend and talk about life 👭 # These things help me to find some balance and ground me back to other parts of me. I am a mother but I’m also a person who greatly needs to be connected to other elements to feel totally full. This allows me to refill my cup and come back to my little girls ready for our adventures. What do you do to take care of yourself?

Photos From This Floating Baby Spa In Australia Will Make Your Day

If you’re looking for a fun way to sneak in more mommy and daddy time with your little one ―  oh baby, do we have the spa for you. 

At Baby Spa Perth in Australia, newborns (from two days to six months) and their caregivers can enjoy a unique experience involving baby massages and postnatal water flotation. The flotation exercise, called hydrotherapy, is apparently beneficial to babies as it can help them with their balance, coordination, strength and sleep. 

“One of the main benefits we love the most is the parent’s bonding experience,” co-owner Anita Yap told our colleagues at HuffPost Australia.

During the water exercises, babies wear something called a “bubby,” which helps keep them float. They all look absolutely adorable wearing them:

"Last week we took Zephyra to her 3rd visit to the @babyspaperth, & what a success it was! Our little babe enjoyed her hydrotherapy session which has benefited her so much since we first started. Not to mention she slept like a log the entire arvo and had a huge 8 hour sleep that night. cant wait for our next session" #repost @jnzsmumma

The sessions generally last from 10 to 30 minutes in the water. According to the spa’s website, friends and family are allowed to come watch the babies float. 

"Koa had colic & reflux, was really difficult to settle. After visiting Baby Spa a few times there was such a huge difference in her & within that time her colic was gone & reflux medication was stopped. I have no doubt Baby Spa played a huge part in helping her overcome both colic & reflux! " Kate Ilijash

The Baby Spa, which opened less than a year ago, is a part of a franchise that started in South Africa. Along with hydrotherapy, the Baby Spa also offers infant massages.

The length of the massage depends on each baby:

Each session costs around $65 US dollars (about $85 in AUD). And while some studies show neonatal swimming can accelerate babies’ growth in the early stage, one doctor cautions the spas and floating exercises aren’t beneficial for every baby. 

“The only place where aquatic therapy is shown to be beneficial is in kids with developmental delays,” Dr. Shahrouz Ganjian of Providence Saint John’s Health Center in Santa Monica, Calif. told Women’s Health. “Research doesn’t show that it is or isn’t beneficial in normal kids so, as of now, I can’t recommend it.”

You’ll either love or really hate the idea of a day spa for babies

Babies are so lucky. First, they get to eat and sleep all day now this.

Proving that life grows crueller with the passing of time, some extra-privileged babies are being pampered in their very own spas now. And they won’t even remember the experience. So unfair.

SEE ALSO: The ridiculous baby monitor that makes parenting even scarier than it already is

Baby Spa Perth is the third “baby spa” in a global franchise that started in South Africa. It’s the first of its kind in Australia, and boy, is it rich. Babies (who, may we remind you, already have it great) get to indulge in hydrotherapy and massage sessions from AUD$85 ($65).

But it’s also full of benefits, according to the spa’s website. Hydrotherapy leads to an increase in “muscular and skeletal strength,” they write, “through the water’s gentle resistance.”

They also attribute improved sleep, increased lung capacity and muscle growth to the spa treatments, adding that the sessions also promote “parent-child bonding and secure attachment.”

Heavy

Had bub weighed at Mother's Group again today (last one next week!). 1w5d: 3.45kg 2w5d: 3.71kg (up 260g) 3w5d: 3.88kg (up 160g) 4w5d: 4.14kg (up 260g) This makes me very happy. "Empty" boob feeling in evenings and doubts about only feeding from one boob each feed and "should I be changing to feed from both boobs?" thoughts be gone!! Asked ECHC LC about whether I should change to both boobs and she said to just continue with only one boob if I was fine with it (ie. Boobs not hurting/sore), maybe offering both every now and then in the evenings (which I have been doing). Whiled the rest of the afternoon away on the glider, trapped under a sleeping baby. Twice. First time I wanted to have her sleep on me - started as settling, but enjoyed the cuddles. Second time she was too fussy and just wanted to be on me. I was feeding by the time hubby got home, got dressed afterwards and we headed off to buy Indian sweets and then headed to my family's home for dinner and say hello. Had a good night and got home late-ish. Boob and then bed. Hubby shit me for the first time, though. I put her to bed after boob but, when we climbed into our bed, she woke up and fussed. I was already in bed and he was still upright, so asked him to settle her. He complained saying he was already sleepy though (had been snoring on the couch). I cracked it and got up saying thanks for nothing and that I'm the one that has to be awake in 1.5hrs. In his defence, it's the first time he's ever not done something for bub. In my defence: "sleep deprivation". Suck it up. Anyway. Sad: Bub's got lots of gas. I feel so bad for her. Trying not to give her anything and keep farting and burping her, as suggested by ECHN and other Mum's in the group when I raised it at last week's session. Supposedly it goes away by the miracle 8-12 week mark. If it continues, though, I might give her something. I don't like seeing her struggling so hard to get it out and occasionally in pain from it. 😢 Happy: Ooh! I'm a big girl who was all by herself today!! Well, I had the baby around. 😉
