MARCH EVENTS
With St. Patrick's Day on March 17th, this month we are going to harness the luck of the Irish. It just so happens that the week before is March Break and we always like to celebrate during that week for those of us that don't get to jet set to a tropical oasis. So this year we are going GREEN with special St. Patty's themed events for the kiddos including a fun scavenger hunt!
See you on the March Break: March 11- March 14.
CALENDAR OF EVENTS
Our theme this month is "Beautiful Babies" so that means we are hosting our FREE ZOOM Workshop of the same name on Wednesday March 27th at 1:00pm (in hopes that all you new mamas get a chance to put baby down for a nap and learn some helpful information about raising happy, healthy and well-developed babies & toddlers). Follow us on Instagram all month for helpful information and tips about breastfeeding, tummy time, milestones and more! To register for our Beautiful Babies FREE zoom workshop click below and be sure to share with your other mom friends who could use the support!
TONGUE TIES, LATCHING & CHIROPRACTIC
As more women return to breastfeeding, there's been a large increase in latching problems, nipple pain and babies being diagnosed with tongue and lip ties. Some health professionals have suggested that a mother-baby breastfeeding dyad has approximately 14 days to establish an effective breastfeeding connection before giving up and moving on to other options. One of the greatest benefits of early chiropractic care for a newborn is improved latching and breastfeeding. As pediatric chiropractors, we are acutely aware of the relationship between a newborn's nervous system and the biomechanics of their upper neck, jaw and tongue and recognize the need for baby chiropractic care to support a healthy latch & breastfeeding experience.
In this article we take a deep dive into TOTs (tethered oral tissues) and provide you with the most up to date information and recommendations for what you should do if you get this diagnosis or think your baby may have a tongue or lip tie.
BEAUTIFUL BABIES WORKSHOP:
Wednesday March 27th @ 1:00pm
Are you a new parent struggling with a colicky baby? Does it feel like your little one is constantly crying, arching their back, or having difficulty sleeping and soothing? Or maybe you and your baby have a hard time with breast feeding and you've tried all the tips, maybe even hired a lactation consultant with limited success. Or perhaps yours is the new baby that can't be put down and needs constant holding, bouncing or rocking otherwise they wail uncontrollably. Maybe your child is having difficulty with rolling over, sitting up or hasn't started crawling or walking yet?
If any of these describe your baby, don't worry, you're not alone - and these are the babies (and parents) that we help everyday in our clinic!
Join Dr. Tara Sutton on WEDNESDAY MARCH 27th at 1:00pm for our FREE Beautiful Babies Workshop (on zoom). Register for FREE by clicking below:
CM SPOTLIGHT: BABY EVA
More and more parents are discovering the benefits of baby chiropractic to be gentle, safe, natural and effective. Sabrina, mom to 3 beautiful girls, uses chiropractic to keep her family growing and developing well! Check out her full experience below:
With regular chiropractic care for Eva I noticed a difference in the comfort during and after a feed. Plus more regular bowel movements. For my premature daughter her milestones were expected at an adjusted age but when I started seeing Dr. Tara she was meeting milestones at her birth age :)
