Alternative Baby Products that are Healthier & Cheaper
Jan 28, 2024

I believe parents are the most heavily marketed to group of people on the planet. We are made to believe we can only use cleaning supplies, packaged food, hygiene products that are found in the baby aisle, or else our babies will… I don’t know, suddenly turn into adults? I’m not sure why I thought I could only use hand sanitizer that had baby branding on it, but I did! It’s ok to laugh at ourselves once in a while, right? In this article I’ll be sharing my favorite alternatives to pricey, store-bought baby products so you can skip the marketing traps AND live more naturally in the process.

Is it ok if my baby doesn’t crawl? What parents should know about the Developmental Sequence.

Is it ok if my baby doesn’t crawl? What parents should know about the Developmental Sequence.
Jan 23, 2024

You can see why child development experts like us did not appreciate the CDC implying that crawling was not a necessary or expected skill for babies to perform. This is arguably one of the most important skills in regards to the number of body systems affected when a baby fails to achieve it. Remember, the CDC did not remove crawling because they found that it wasn’t important. They removed it because they found that many children were not doing it. More on that here…

What do I do if my baby hates Tummy Time?
Jan 23, 2024

A consistent trend among babies with delayed gross motor milestones is that they participated in little to no Tummy Time in early infancy. There are fairly predictive outcomes for Baby's quality of movement when they skip this activity.

Is my baby gear stunting their development? (Positioning Devices edition)

Is my baby gear stunting their development? (Positioning Devices edition)
Jan 20, 2024

As you can see, I’ve actually used less equipment as I’ve had more children. It can be done and I’m here to encourage you that you can do it, too! We don’t have to believe the marketing lies about what is good for our children’s development. The truth is, what was good for babies hundreds of years ago, even 50 years ago, is still good for our babies today: time on their back, their tummy, and time in your arms. Anything else is a trade-off.

A PT’s Perspective on the New CDC Developmental Milestones

A PT’s Perspective on the New CDC Developmental Milestones
Mar 28, 2023

One of the main reasons I am writing this for parents is to point out that never in recorded or researched history have our children been found to develop their skills as late as they are developing them today…

I wonder how this forward shift in normal skill acquisition (that is not based on science, but simply a report of what children are doing today) will affect the next generation of children emotionally, physically and intellectually? I guess only time will tell.

We should appreciate this information for what it is — a report on the current state of affairs — and not confuse it for what it certainly is not — normal.

How Modern Mothers Prepare for Childbirth
Mar 11, 2019

When I relayed the information I had found after my son’s birth, they had the same reaction I had — “Why didn’t anyone tell me this?”

I would like to change that response, so I have created the Natural Childbirth Prep Course, a virtual course that marries the science with the practical so that you can pursue whatever type of birth with whatever method you choose and have your preparation actually have a positive effect on your birthing experience.
